Designer Notes: This scenario covers the fighting of Panzer-Grenadier Division Grossdeutschland in the short time it was fighting in the Orel salient before being sent south as a result of Operation Rumyantsev.

Scenario Briefing: Northwest of Bolkhov, the Soviet divisions had broken through the German lines on a width of almost 30 kilometres and were advancing in a southwesterly direction through the almost impenetrable forests north of Karachev. The Soviet units had already penetrated more than forty kilometres into the German rear area and was threatening both the city as well as the road and rail links between Orel and Karachev. These two communications lines, over which supplies for the German units in the Orel salient flowed day and night, were directly threatened. The mission of the Panzer-Grenadier Division Grossdeutschland and other arriving reserve units was to prevent these links from being severed and to destroy the advancing enemy forces.
