Krasnoarmeyskoye - Feb 18th to Feb 20th, 1943. 4th Guards Tank Corp commander Poluboyarov implored Vatutin, South Western Front's commander to allow him to retreat from the German forces slowly encircling his corp. In response both Vatutin and Stavka demanded that Poluboyarov 'destroy the retreating German forces' as it was assumed that the Germans were pulling back to the Dnepr River. The Soviet High Command had little understanding of both the conditions and lack of supply reaching the Soviet spearheads. The Germans attacked in earnest on Feb 18th and had essentially taken Krasnoarmeyskoye and shattered the Soviet forces by the 19th. (Size, Small) This is a short scenario that ideally can be played against the Soviet AI. HTH is also a possibility. There are 8 victory objectives and the German has to take them all. The Soviet task is easier; they just have to retain them.

Very tactical - for the Soviet side it's only managing the fast impending disaster, but with an ammount of sheer luck they stand the chance because of the numbers and stubbornness.
Very well balanced short scenario. Playing a mirrored game, I lost a minor victory by 9 points and in the mirror, my opponent won a minor by 3 points.
