Tank Brawl at Plycza - Barbarossa 1941 (15mm Wargame)
Operation Barbarossa was the initial Axis invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, the largest single military operation there has ever been. In its opening week, huge Soviet tank and mechanized armies mount gigantic but uncoordinated counterattacks at German panzer spearheads, triggering some of the largest tank battles in history.
One of these is the Battle of Dubno-Brody, where huge numbers of archaic and ill-supplied Soviet armor are hurled at expert (but much smaller) German tank forces. Part of this battle takes place at the village of Plycza, where elements of Soviet 34th Tank Division (8th Mechanized Corps) is counter-counterattacked by units of the 11th Panzer Division.
Among the Soviet tanks are the monstrous T-35, a gigantic oddity of tank design that seems more akin so something you’d find on a Warhammer 40K table . . .
