CODEX PRESENTS: Achtung Panzer - Shilovo 1942



Release Date : 8/2014 Protection : Steam

Discs : 1 Genre : Strategy Intending to enter Voronezh from the South, on July 4, 1942, attacking

German forces partly crossed the river Don at Petino - Malyshevo.

Bitter fighting quickly ensued over possession of the Shilovo bridge-

head, as neither side wanted to lose this strategically important

asset. The bridgehead provided the shortest route across the river Don

at Malyshevo, terminating in the Southern outskirts of Voronezh on the

right bank of the river. German forces intended to use the right bank

in their drive to Stalingrad. Hitler was later to declare delays

advancing through this region contributed to the failure at Stalingrad,

having given Soviet forces more time to prepare. The Shilovo forest

presented ideal opportunities for the concealed deployment of reserve

forces. It masked warehouses, logistical assets & accommodations.

Shilovo, located on high ground, held a dominant position on the left

bank. From the village and especially from the church bell-tower, the

disposition of Soviet defensive forces at Maslovka, Tavrovo, and

Beryozovka was clearly visible, even without field glasses.

In-game engagements are modelled for the period from July 4 to July 6,

1942. The battle (on the map modeled in the game) was fought by:

German 24th Pz. Div. (26th Inf. Regt., 24th Inf. Regt.) with

reinforcements, and Soviet 232 Rifle Div. (498 Rifle Regt., 425 Art.

Regt.), 110 Tank Bde and a battalion of 180 Tank Bde (last is

unconfirmed). Elements of the 24th Pz. Div. had begun crossing the Don

on the morning of 4th July. Initially only lightly armed units made

the crossing, moving towards Voronezh. Heavy equipment and artillery

followed only on 5th July. On the morning of 5th July the German

forces were unsuccessfully counter-attacked by tanks of 110 and 180

Tank Bde. German forces defeated elements of the 232nd Rifle Div. and

took control of Shilovo. Germans noted the strong influence of Soviet

air support. - Extract
