Kursk - Clash Along the Psel 1 (Monster Map Edition)

Krasny Oktabyr-Kliuchi, Russia, 11 July 1943: Ater a long night of struggling to secure little more than a tentative hold on the north bank of the Psel River, Totenkopf's Panzer Regiment received orders to expand the bridgehead and explore the Russian defensive positions to the north. Unbeknownst to them, the reinforced 95th Guards Rifle Division was in the process of moving into positions overlooking the village of Krasny Oktabyr. As the Germans moved up from the river's edge, the two forces collided as the raindrops ofa summer squall pelted friend and foe. Mutual surprise soon gave way to a ferocious struggle. The Russians charged right into the midst of the German force. Fighting was at point-blank range; tanks often engaged one another from less than one hundred meters apart. Both sides lost several vehicles before they mutually disengaged. This action was only the first of several fought on July 11th. Many more actions would follow as the Russians continued efforts to blunt the German attack. For their part, the Germans continued to aim for the capture of Hill 226.6, a height that dominated the local landscape.
