November 1942

Eastern Front

Fighting rages unabated as the 6th Army pounds the 62nd Army. The Germans are already bogged down in costly, close-quarters fighting with the small and aggressive combat groups that simply refuse to give up. Luftwaffe reconnaissance over the Rumanian 3rd Army sector detects a build up of Soviet forces, which Fremde Heer Ost believes will be used for a limited counteroffensive against the Rumanian lines.
