Overview:
The attack on the 23rd, while rebuffed on the east side of Cholm, had succeeded in claiming the western section. This presented General Scherer with a very serious situation if the Russians were able to renew offensive operations sooner than he could, he might well be forced to abandon the town altogether, seeing that the enemy was now very much inside his doorstep. On the 27th, Scherer felt able to mount just such a counterattack, employing both forces at his disposal within the eastern side of the town and supported in his effort by friendly forces approaching from the southwest. The Luftwaffe was also called upon to lend its weight to the reclamation effort.Attacker: German (Kampfgruppe Scherer)
Defender: Russian (164th Rifle Regiment, 33rd Rifle Division, 3rd Shock Army)

2023-11-30 | (D) Jeff B | vs | John Fedoriw | German win | 9.25 hrs | John's risky move of pushing his gun on paid off big when he CH my HMG crew on the bottom of Turn 1. Next turn his stukas arrived and his OBA and a berserker ousted me from the church compound. Meanhile his kill stack led by the 9-2 eliminated a couple dummy stacks, only to turn their attention on Turn 3 to my last bastion of hope in the SW, one of my MMG nests, busting them up. What was supposed to be a strongpoint of my defense crumbled quickly. His surge cresting the river in the central east began in earnest, and the rest of the game was an extremely statically boring game of me trying to cling to concealment in the hopes of keeping my meager force alive (which was quite futile with all the toys available to him). Perhaps if he didn't have every shred of luck go his way for almost the entire course of the game it would've been closer and more fun but, well, it wasn't. And he easily claimed his last block needed on his last turn for the victory. | |
