DAR - Russian Winter Woes

[Lt. Ketch]

Commrades! Our division has been called on break the line of the German Army that is encroaching on the sacred soil around our beloved capital! We will assaile fascit's position with every man, every tank, every gun that could be pulled together for this assualt. Beyond our own forces, division has allocated us:

2 of the toughened Siberian ski companyies,(3 platoons of 2 SMG, 1 Heavy and 1 Poineer Ski troops along with sniper and HQ escort)

4 platoons of ski poineers,(3 squads each)

It is fitting that shortly after the Americans finaily enter this war that we are using the first full company of their equipment. Let us up this "Ctyapt" (Stuart) can fight and is not just capatalist crap! (10 Stuart AFVs)

1 Heavy tank company that has been cobbled together. It should be able to funtion despite being all different models. (4 Kv-1 Efamelas[or whatever they're called - the ones with lots of armour], 3 Kv-1 1940s [I can't remember, the one with the 152mm cannon], 3 T-28 [this is to offset the other tanks, slow and not very good - limited attempt at realism])

1 Motorcycle company for recon purposes has also been attached to our forces.

Our artillary support is mighty! Not only has regimental given us 8 batteries of heavy artillary (4 122mm+ [with 140 ammo], 4 152mm] but we aslo have a battery of heavy mortars (5 120mm), but a whole battery of Stalin's Organs! (25 Katuysha rocket launchers).

We have also been given 6 ammo suppliers to assist in the barrage as well as a B20-m FO vichael to help in cordinating the incoming carrnage.

Lastly, we have procured 3 platoons (4 each) of sleds for our regular troops.


As visabilty is only just over a KM (29 hexes), we don't anticipate enemy air assets. We will be shipping out soon to take up our assault positions. Long live the Russian War Machine!
