The communist start their attack with a massive air raid.
They focus on the 88mm flak guns blocking the path to the village. ?
One is knocked out while the other sees it's crews diving for their slit trenches.

On the right Flank the Soviets use massive firpower to weaken the German forces holding the only high ground, called Corn Hill.
This small German force of anti-tank guns, mortars, and infantry face a daunting task.
Delay the Tank horde!

The first German reinforcements arrive when a small platoon of Stugs move behind the far right Soviet tank company.
Thier arrival while first greeted with great joy by the defenders of Corn hill soon turns to the sounds of agony as they manage to destroy only one T-34.
The remaining Soviets tanks take a risk and simply turn their turrets onto the attackers in a hope to elimate the threat quickly. If they fail The T-34's weaker rear armor will be exposed to the Stugs again.

The other Tank battlaion moves slowly and holds at the edge of the fields.
If you draw an imaginary line near the road you can see the max range of to 88mm Pak 43's defending the village's southern approaches.

In the meantime the tank rider company moves aggressively and drive the Grenaiders out of the center wood. ?
Having just moved into positoin the Germans were ill prepared to deal with the mass of Soviet infantry.
