Overview:
The ambitious Operation Mars aimed to destroy the 9. Armee in the Rzhev salient. The 41st Army was ordered to break through the German defenses at Belyi, and by 30 November, the Russians believed the German defenses were about to crack. In heavy snowfall, the 19th Mechanized Brigade crossed the frozen Vena river and deployed for the final assault. - - - - In this mid-sized scenario, Russian infantry bring knives to a gunfight when they armed with little more than small-arms charge the artillery position of 1. Panzer-Division. Further studies in asymmetric warfare follow when the supporting T-70 tankettes acquaint themselves with the schwere 10cm Kanone 18.Attacker: Russian (Elements of 19th Mechanized Brigade, 1st Mechanized Corps, 41st Army)
Defender: German (Elements of Artillerie-Abteilung 73, 1. Panzer-Division and elements of 1. Panzer-Division HQ)

Errata (source)
| The last sentence of SSR 1 should read: At the beginning of Game Turn 3 the Falling Snow (if any) stops and will not start again during the scenario. The old wording suggested the Ground Snow would go away on Game Turn 3, which was not the designer's intention. | FrF website |
