Scenario Briefing: Both the Western Front and the Bryansk Front started the Soviet counteroffensive after Zitadelle on 12 July 1943, their objective was to eliminate the German units of PzAOK.2 and AOK.9 defending in the Orel salient. The units of the Western Front and 61st Army of the Bryansk Front were to engage the German troops defending Bolkhov and Orel. The Western Front planned to employ the 50th Army and the 11th Guards Army to attack towards the south and to cut communications with Bryansk.
