Belyi Sector, Rzhev Salient, December 15th 1942: The 41st Army was a spent force and had been for days. Gen Tarasov was gone, relieved of his duties by Marshall Zhukov who took command of the Army himself. Gen Solomatin's 1st Mechanized Corps, inside the pocket, was getting steadily whittled away by the Germans. He planned to breakout tonight using the remnants of the 19th and 74th Rifle Bdes with the 37th Mech Bde in the 1st echelon. To the rear, the 35th and 48th Mech Bdes, with the 91st Rifle Bde, were to hold on until the breakout had succeeded, then they were to rapidly withdraw using the same route. Zhukov promised to provide an artillery preparation along the flanks of the route. Designer's Note: "What If" scenario, not all units are present. Also there are a lot of fixed units that will not release in this scenario. [Size, medium]
