Overview:

On the first day of Operation Barbarossa, the Germans and their many Axis partners began crossing the frontier on their quest to conquer the Soviet Union. In Army Group Center, the initial German forces were busy crossing the Bug River. Three German Infantry Divisions, the 137th, 263rd and 292nd began crossing the Bug and moving toward Bransk. In support were the StuG’s of StuG-Abteilung 226. The StuG’s would spend the morning hours waiting on construction of a bridge strong enough to carry their weight. Once across the Bug, the StuG’s went quickly into action against counter-attacking Soviet armor. On the 23rd, the 226 was in Bransk along with the Recon Battalion of the 263rd Infantry Division. It wasn’t long after sunrise, that Soviet armor and infantry could be seen headed towards Bransk. The StuG’s and Recon Battalion dug in and prepared to meet this next counterattack.

2025-10-05(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best Russian win2 hrsGerman 37L did great damage to the Russian armor on Turns 1 and 2, but then MALF'd. The STUG's got in their licks, but two of the three STUG's would be knocked out (one due to a CRIT Hit) by the T-26's. On Turn 4, the Russians had two mobile tanks left and two immobilized tanks with 3 of them having MALF'd guns. But the final STUG was swarmed by the Russian Commissar and a 4-4-7 and knocked in Close Combat for the immediate Russian victory.
