*
Date: December 14 , 1942*

Battle Location: West of Dimitrijewka,  Russia*
*
Battle Type: Germany defend vs USSR assault*
*
Description: After pulling back from their prepared positions near Hill 105 the troops of Grenadier Regiment 673 are tasked with holding a stretch of the line near Dimitrijewka with front to the West. Compared with the old positions the new ones out on the steppe are markedly inferior. When the regimental commander is wounded, Hauptmann Zank, formerly of the II. Btl assumes command.*
*
Several Russian attacks are thrown in against the lines of the 673d during the beginning of December but are all beaten back. Critical in the defence is a battery of 88mm Flak guns used as Pak.*
*
Notes: If played against the AI the human player should take the German side.*
