26th June, 1944*
Outskirts of Orsha*
*
Hitler has declared Orsha a "Fester Platz" or holdfast. That means that the Germans are supposed to defend it to the death. That can be arranged.
*
*
Intelligence: Orsha is held by what is left of the 78th Sturm- and 25th Panzergrenadier-Divisions. The city has been prepared as a fortress, with trenches connecting houses and running through the streets.
Tanks and at guns are dug in between the ruins in ambush positions.
The center of the German defence in this sector is the trainstation building.
In this mission you are free to choose your support forces: Additional artillery and engineers would be a good start. Flame tanks can be useful in urban combat.
*
*
Objectives: Force your way into Orsha. Take the trainstation and any other strongpoint you can find.
