AtB Bonus Firefight 3 - The Sovkhoz Depot Nov 26th, 1941 - “The icy cold, the wretched shelters, the shortage of clothing, the high losses of men and equipment, the lack of heating fuel made the conduct of battle a chore...” - Generaloberst Guderian. General Situation: In their drive for Moscow, the German army ground to a halt within a few kilometers of the city. On Dec. 2nd the temperature sank to -37C and the German tank engines would not start and the gun breeches would not open. The winter mobile Soviets attacked across the front and blew holes into the German defenses. In desperation, the Germans marshaled what supplies they could find and dug in at villages when they could. On Dec. 3rd, a company of the German 82nd Infantry Regiment, stationed 10km east of Tula, is attacked by elements of the 1st Guard Cavalry Corps. The exhausted Germans must hold the supply depot, because surrender is not an option.
