Is it COIN-like or something different? I’ve toyed around with doing a COIN game for the post Agincourt part of the wars.

End of turn 7. Torchyn and Sadiv hold (3VP). 13Pz took Turopyn with the last AP. A successful EC by the Soviet defense twice would have stopped it.
Time to count up the VPs and see the final results.

End of 6. 87INF 1SP left and 41Tank eliminated. 13Pz and XXIX Corps infantry pushing to the east. Probably not enough time to get all the VPs for exiting the infantry divisions. Will see how close it gets in the final turn.

End of turn 5. Isolation and destruction of 87INF continues. 13Pz breaks through 135INF. Two turns to go.

End turn 4. Formations around Volodymyr were all pretty exhausted, so not much happened. 44INF punched into town, but 14Pz and 299INF made little headway. Down south rapid advance saw 13Pz get a couple of attacks done. 135INF has too much ground to defend

End of turn 3. Brutal battle for Volodymyr. 3 German vs 2 Soviet DIV. A seesaw battle in the north town hex finally resulted in the destruction of 3/525 INF who had isolated 87HQ. 14Pz could not break through. No bonus VPs. South looks bleak comrade. 😳

Finished turn 1. Looks grim in the south but north side not so bad. 🤷‍♂️
