VGR 690 in the mill*
*
Date: February, 1945*
*
Battle Location: East Prussia*
*
Battle Type: Soviet assault vs German defend*
*
Description: You are in command of Volksgrenadierregiment 690 (two battalions) and attached divisionary troops. Your order is to beat off the enemy attack. Consider a deep, flexible defence otherwise your lines will likely be overrun.*  
*
Historical note: Hypothetical scenario. After reading the book "Letzte Schlacht an der Ostfront" ("Last battle at the East front"), written by the regiment commander, I have made an attempt to answer the question whether it was possible that a VGR (Volksgrenadierregiment) and attached divisionary troops could withstand a massive soviet assault (1:7 odds) in a prepared defence situation or not. The VGR were introduced since October 1943 to fill the material and personal gaps in the Wehrmacht*
*
Designer Notes: The German units are fully equipped with ammo and weapons and are sometimes modified (documented field modifications). The Soviet tanks have have had their maximum speed reduced because the infantry and tanks should stay nearly together in the assault.*
