The time for the assault was near. The men gathered up in their positions and the tanks were fuelled up and ready to go. The fascists would not know what hit them as the might of the soviet army smashed down upon them.
And a propagandacast Addendum looking at a future force setup for a future CoH.
242nd Infanterie Division had collapsed after several attacks by a combined British American force and now the way to the Ruhr lay open. only the Panzer Lehr could stop them.
And a Propagandacast Lehr looking at a current Wehrmacht strategy
Staring across a field of burning russian tanks Stürmbannführer Emil Hausser wiped the sweat of his brow hoping he could catch a break "Herr Stürmbannführer. Orders are in. We are to launch a counter-attack 10 kilometers south of here. The Bolsheviks have broken through and we are the only ones able to halt them" No rest for the wicked Emil thought.
"Herr Major. The Russians have broken across the Vistula and are approaching are positions" Major Engells studied the map with his positions on it and thought himself well prepared to counter the Soviet assault.
The 272nd had been rushed to the frontline to take up positions of a previously battered infantry division. And now stood face to face with the 5th Armoured Division attempting a breakthrough. Not a good start.
The Advance to the Ruhr District was going steadily through wooded areas for the 7th Armoured Division, resistance had been light. But that was all to change when they ran head on into the 2nd SS Panzer Division.
And a Proapgandacast Tactical Highlight looking at Close the Pocket.
"Hautpmann Ludwig could not believe his eyes as he was out on reconnaissance. A battalion headquarters exposed with little immediate support. He immediately called in reinforcements from his superior and set up preparing for a swift assault that could throw the 120th Rifle Division into chaos.
He hadn't heard anything from 2nd Company in hours, not since the allied artillery attack. It was all up to him and 3rd Company to push through and break the allied advance. The alternative, not worth thinking about.
"Werner you idiot. The Russians aren't coming from that direction. Bring the MG over to the east of the town" The Panzer Division von strachwitz had been tasked with holding a small vital village on the eastern border of Estonia until a defensive line further to the west could be established. Rolling in was the 45th Guards Motor Rifle Division. Unawares of what was awaiting it.
