Good work, comrade. The Fashists have withdrawn from ARTEMOVKA. The Party and the Motherland thanks you!

Intel gathered from dead German bodies left behind in the village indicates the enemy troops were SS - beloning to the Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler Division. It might explain to some extent why the battle of the ARTEMOVKA village proved to be so bitter.

You push on west, reaching the town of PETSCHENEGI, and Corps orders an assault. A fresh rifle battalion, the only full strenght one left in the entire corps, is brought forward to help with the assault over the frozen Donets river. Some light tanks and what artillery that can be mustered to support you is also brought forward.

The town is likely held by the Adolf Hitler Division. You will have to fight hard to liberate it. Probably even harder than at ARTEMOVKA...
