To The Soldiers Of The Ostfront\\Scenario Size: Medium\Best played
as PBEM\\Note: This scenario requires the XFEF Mod designed by
keif149. It will not play with the stock Red Victory game.\\This
is my adaption of the ASL scenario by Ola Nygards.\\NOTE: FOW
should be turned off!\Victory Conditions: The Player wins a Major
Victory by controlling the most boards by games end. To control
a board, the Player must control the majority of buildings on
that board. To control a building, a Player must have a non-demoralized
squad in a building. A leader cannot control a building by itself.
It is possible to have a draw.\\BREST-LITOVSK, Russia, 22 June
1941: At a meeting of senior officers of the 4th Army on 10 June
it was stated that neither the District command nor the High
Command in Moscow' thought that the Germans intended to break
the 1939 Pact; the object was, as they thought, to "strengthen
their position while deciding political questions with us". At
this time the Russian troops were scattered, like the 28th Rifle
corps (responsible for the Brest fortress and its area) with
9 rifle, 3 artillery and all engineer battalions at work on defenses.
Meanwhile, in the old, historic crenellated fortress of Brest,
the Germans could see Soviet soldiers carrying out their routine
drills, complete with band. Precisely what was passing on through
Stalin's mind still remains something of a mystery, but on 21
June Stalin sensed greater danger. "Vozmozhno Napadenie Nemtzev",
"The Germans might attack" was the cryptic words he used to set
some precautionary moves. At 01:00 hours on 22 June the separate
German Army commands transmitted their call-signs indicating
full readiness. The officers were reading to their men the Fuhrer's
personal order, "To the soldiers of the Ostfront". Obeying their
own laws were the specialists of Regiment 800, the "Brandenburgers",
many of them Russian-speaking, infiltrated - or dropped by parachute
-behind Soviet lines. Dressed in Red Army uniform, the 800 men
were making for Brest fortress or for the bridges over the Bug.
A number of men, smuggled in on Saturday in goods trains or hidden
under loads of gravel in rail trucks, had already been in the
town of Brest for many hours.\\\AFTERMATH: The fortress of Brest-Litovsk
had stood directly in the path allotted to the 2nd Panzer Army.
To subdue it Guderian had asked for an infantry corps from the
4th Army. Brest-Litovsk was encircled on the first day and organized
Soviet resistance in the fortress town of Brest-Litovsk comes
to an end after four days of extremely heavy fighting. The Germans
finally pummeled the defenders into submission with massive air
strikes and heavy artillery bombardment.
