Overview:

After taking the railway embankment north of Ponyri, XXXXI Panzerkorps under General der Panzertruppen Josef Harpe found the going for the train station a little tougher. Somewhat under strength at the start of CITADEL, the Pomeranian-recruited Infanterie-Division 292 was nicknamed the "Tomato Division" due to the red circle featured on its division patch. Division commander Generalleutnant Wolfgang von Kluge (younger brother of Generalfeldmarschall Günther) directed Oberst Georg Zierhold's Grenadier-Regiment 508 to attack out of the Kastenwald and into the northern part of Ponyri Station following a heavy artillery barrage. Assaulting with furious determination as the sun rose on the steppe, the "Tomato Division" made its first of several attempts to take the town. With the assault guns of Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 244 and a few tanks of Panzer-Division 18 in support, von Kluge felt confident that German supply trains would soon be unloading at Ponyri Station.
Attacker: German (Grenadier-Regiment 508, Infanterie-Division 292, Panzer-Division 18 and Sturmgeschütz-Abeteilung 244)
Defender: Russian (1019th and 1023rd Rifle Regiments, 307th Rifle Division and 1442nd Self-Propelled Artillery Regiment Artillery Brigade)

2025-05-17(D) walter mcwilliams vs Al Salzman Russian winAl started out with some bad luck, malfing a stug on its first smoke attempt and malfing both MMG stacked with the 9-2. After that, his dice settled down and he attacked down the middle. He succeeded in infiltrating and evicting the Russians in the center building after my series of terrible DR but some hangers on in the the northern most building kept the Russians in it. I choose infantry for my final two reinforcements and they secured the southern most buiding in depth. I placed all the wire and mines around the school house and kept a token force there. After loosing to CC at the bottom of T5 all conceeded feeling he didn't have the time to secure one of the two remaining VC buildings. He had 4-points.

I think he could have won, though it would have been hard, he had 100% armor superiority. Lots of playing left to go before we know the true balance of this however, at first blush I think both sides will be equally challanged.
