Overview:
Throughout the winter of ‘42–‘43, the Soviets launched repeated attacks to relieve the siege of Leningrad. The hard-pressed Germans rebuffed one attack after another, but in so doing, their lines became progressively thinner. Finally, the Germans had to develop a trip wire defense of light local forces, backed by a “fire brigade” mobile force, which was quickly dispatched to the inevitable breakthrough sector. Such a fire brigade was 1st Company, schwere Panzer Battalion 502, with ace tanker Cpt. Hans Bölter, who was called upon to halt a major Russian armored incursion by a full battalion of the 122nd Tank Brigade.Attacker: Russian (Elements of 122nd Tank Brigade)
Defender: German (Company 1, Schwere Panzer Battalion 502)

| 2020-08-16 | (A) O Ramaille | vs | German win | The Russians attacked from multiple directions trying to exit as much tanks as possible. However, the powerful OBA immobilized 3 of them and destroyed one. Whereas the Tigers destroyed even more T-34s with accurate shots and helpful ROF. Four T-34s managed to exit destroying one Panzer IIIN in the process. A German victory. |
