Survival of the US 5th ID (M)
Has anyone out there tinkered with the V1 Kalisz scenario where the 5th Division does NOT get destroyed? After reading the Eastern European Sourcebook (specifically how the 8th ID was equipped) a couple of years ago I began work on a scenario where the bulk of the 5th was able to evade encirclement.
Basically the premise was that a regimental command vehicle of the Soviet 124th MRD was damaged and the maps/plans for the Soviet plans were captured. Simple enough...it's happened before, in particular during WW2.
Thanks-
Dave
