ASL RB2 Blood and Guts (German attack)

ASL RB2 Blood and Guts (German attack)
This is an adaptation of ASL Scenario RB2 from the historical module “Red Barricades” (designed by Charles Kibler, Eric Baker, and Michael A. Balis). The player controls the Germans, who must push forward against a dug-in Russian defense. See the version notes for changes from the original.

The preceding day witnessed renewed all-out assaults against the Barrikady and Krasny Oktyabr factories as the Germans flailed away in pouring rain at the fanatical Soviet defenders in their well-fortified positions. Little headway was made, but much blood was shed. On 22 October, German pressure versus the Barrikady and Krasny Oktyabr factories was intensified as Gen. Paulus dug deeper into his barrel and committed the relatively fresh Infanterie Division 79. Reinforced by armor, troops of the 305th, 389th and 79th Divisions staged vicious thrusts at both factories in pouring rain. On the hills to the west of Stalingrad the season's first snow was falling.
