Game 6: Udarny Strelkovy vs SS Wiking Panzers
As the first turn winds down, Sean attacks from Smolevichi again to Lepel, trying to cut off the Soviet Spearhead that is very nearly in Minsk. Sean is successful, leaving the Borizov pocket again cut off!

The fighting stays focused in the North as the Soviets tighten the noose on the German Festerplatz, while driving towads Minsk. Several of the forward Soviet forces have driven beyond supply, however, making opening the rail lines increasingly more important.
