** Pferd und Schmetterling - The Matrix Games version of East Front II

15 August, 1943 "Horse and Butterfly" Petrishcheva, 35km N of Smolensk: [Version 2.0][H2H](Hypo-HISB) [EA or not][N V V]As Kursk proved a grinding yard that reduced the power of the Germans to command the field. The Soviets became empowered and began to launch attacks along the front. Scraping together reserve units Zhukov put together strange combinations to just drive deep into the German lines as he prepared the coming onslaught from his careful calculations. This is one such battle. A Soviet task force has driven deep behind German lines to set up hasty blocks to slow a German retreat. The Germans rushed units forward and tried to form "fists" that could punch through these Soviet blockades. The Soviets must hold. The Germans must breaktrough to fight another day. Russian paratroops were often thought of as "butterflies". On this field they will be trampled by German horses and armor. Or, they will hold and capture the fleeing cavalrymen?
