Intended for Head to Head play or Solo play as either side vs. AI (Best played as Axis)
For Solo victory conditions please consult the "Kiev-43_Solo-Vic-Cond.pdf" document
Scenario Briefing: This scenario covers the early attempts of the 48th Panzer Corps to retake Fastov on the 12th thru 13th of November. The Russians had decided on a defensive posture and the German 25th Panzer Division was unequal to the task. "Das Reich" supported the operation by guarding the flank of the armored division and making attacks of their own. Eventually the Germans had to call off the attack. The action gets underway as the scenario opens with both sides at point blank range in front of Fastov!

Germans have more armor in beginning. Russians need to concentrate on holding limited VP's to start.
both sides have to attack and defend. Very finely balanced scenario.
Good scenario, the result was not decided until the final turns.
Both sides have multiple opportunities to attack and counterattack. Russian numbers versus German quality. A superbly balanced scenario with good replay value!
