Red Packets - The Matrix Games version of East Front II

According to Timoshenko's orders to open the "Red Packets," the 42nd Rifle Division's independent Reconnaissance Battalion with armored cars and motorcycle companies, accompanied by the 393rd Independent AA Battalion were to proceed to Zhabinki and take up defensive positions to stem the oncoming German tide. The Russian troops crossed both bridges simultaneously in their approach to Zhabinki. However, lead elements of the German armored columns were already in the outskirts. The AA truks and the first armored cars were immediately destroyed. However, the second platoon, behind a screen of rapidly dismounted infantry, were able to pass around the Germans and enter Zhabinki to take their final stand - with their numbers already reduced by half.
