Re: Scenario 2: Zhitomir 30 December 1043
I found this statement in Barratt's book: The new day dawned overcast, with freezing fog and temperatures a few degrees below zero. I am proposing the following units be represented for the German side around Zhitomir: 213.Sicherungs-Division Ost-Reiter Abteilung 403 208.Division 68.Division SS Kamp...

Danke Emil! Yes, I think we could get the infantry moving a little faster, and that would mean that the horse carts should be a little faster still. We might also take a look at the way artillery pieces can/can't move, but that is SEOW Object_Specifications edits, not technics. This time around we w...

Scenario 2: Zhitomir Order of Battle
The scenario opens very early on the morning of 30 December 1943. The Zhitomir garrison of PzAOK4 is hard pressed and facing potential encirclement, as happened to Korosten to the north on the day before and like Berdichev and Kazatin two days ago in the south. Can the Korosten forces link up with K...

Scenario 2: Zhitomir Mod Development
We have decided on Zhitomir as the next scenario in the campaign series. This thread is for discussions on the Mod to use. We need a new Mod because we are now using HSFX7, so the prior technics.ini and rocket.ini files are no longer compatible. The Korosten Mod included the following items: 1. tech...

This was a very interesting campaign, played in classic HQ style with friendly cooperation between all throughout the 79 missions over 4 years! I remember well many torpedo attack missions (at which I was totally ineffective), spectacular light shows over Malta as my bomber was coned by searchlights...

We were reflecting about this campaign on TS the other night and it seemed worthwhile to post about it here. I did not read any of the Axis discussion of course but I gather there was some consternation on the Axis side about the outcome of the early armoured attack north of Korosten. It is always d...

Poll: The next scenario!!!
Hi everyone, Discussions have commenced regarding the next scenario we will run in the KZBK campaigns. We are now at midnight on 29 December 1943. Korosten has fallen and the PzAOK4 forces are making a retreat south towards Volodarsk-Volinskiy while the Soviets consolidate and regroup at Korosten. W...

One thing has occurred to me about the heavy armour action in this campaign, and relatively light infantry action. When I designed the OOB I consciously included historical numbers and types of tanks for each side, but only one-third historical infantry numbers. This latter choice was to keep playab...
