Howdy,

We've started the playtest of a mini-campaign for Tannenberg in 1914. Campaign area bordered by the Vistula, Niemen, and Narew Rivers. Map shown below.

Just getting started on Turn 1, August 16, 1914 – Meeting engagement in Soldau between German XX Corps and Russian 3rd Cavalry Division.

Based on scouting the lastest reports indicate:

German Corps in Lyck
Russian Corps in Suwalki
German Cav in Gumbinnen
Russian Cav in Stallupoen.

The campaign is bathtubbed with a battalion(+) representing a division. Battles will be fought in miniature using CD-ToB.

More to come …


Ponder on,


JAS

Hi,

I just took a good at your wonderfull map.

One remark:

I would not allow movement from loetzen to rossel and germdauen.
The is the masurische seenplatte which was not used by the russians for the attack as they did not know a safe passage.

Greetings

Good afternoon,

The commander of the Russian 3rd Cavalry Division decided (wisely I suspect) not to engage the advancing German Corps and withdrew south to Mlawa.

The German XX Corps holds Soldau.

In the meantime, the current plan is to play a training game next Sunday, just for fun.

Ponder on,

Howdy,

On Turn 2, the first major battle of the mini-campaign is upon us. The German XX and XVII Corps collide with the Russian 1st and 6th Corps in the vicinity of Mlawa.

More to come …
