Overview:

The Soviet advance during their summer offensive was rapid and, combined with Hitler's "No Retreat" order, led to many German units becoming trapped inside cities. At Vilnius, remnants of two German regiments under the command of Luftwaffe Major-General Rainer Stahel battled encircling forces from the 3rd Guards Mechanized Corps. In response, two German Kampfgruppen were formed primarily from Panzer-Division 6 and Panzer-Regiment "Großdeutschland." After rounding up the Lithuanian partisans, one of the Kampfgruppen, led by Major Walter Pössl, began to open a 50-kilometer escape route for the Germans in Vilnius. As the Germans began to pull out of Vilnius, the 3rd Guards Mechanized Corps counterattacked.
Attacker: Russian (35th Guards Tank Brigade, 3rd Mechanized Corps)
Defender: German (Panzer-Abteilung 1, Panzer-Regiment "Großdeutschland" Panzer-Division "Großdeutschland" and Bataillon II, Panzer-Regiment 114, Panzer-Division 6, Kampfgruppe Pössli)

2025-11-01(D) Tripp Killin vs Kedge Russian winI set up a bit too far forward, and didn't arrange my rout paths correctly. The Russians can gang up on the little buildings at the foot of the hill, and I should not have put 3 squads down there to delay the advance. I had to break to extract, and they never rallied, dying to casualty rallies and subsequent breaks.
Kedge's attack was well formed and relentless, and as my Marder missed his shots and was burned in AFPh, the Russians were on the hill in force by Turn 3 and I had lost 6 of my initial 8 squads.
