2LT K. Grorud Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 WARNING ORDER Polenfeldzug 005 Stazow Area, Poland - 18. September, 1939 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITUATION OPERATION TIME: 1900 EST FEB 12th IN-GAME TIME: 1800 IGT ORGANIZATION: 1. REGION: Baranow area, Poland 2. WEATHER: Clear Skies; 50F ; Wind <1kn NNE; Dawn 0755 IGT; Dusk 1825 IGT 3. TERRAIN: Farmland, Spruce Forests, Villages After 1st Cavalry Division managed to secure the area of Baranow, we now put our eyest to the Stazow-sector to the north east. We have barely pushed into the area, but have managed to secure us an airfield. German High Command tasks us with securing vital logistics sectors, the airfield at Gacki, as well as the vital crossroads at Zyzna and Szydlow. This will allow us to continue our blitz towards Warzaw. Both the airfield and Zyzna seem to be lightly defended, byt Szydlow is an old medieval castle town, and will be a challenging task to assaut. Polish forces are well dug in, and we expect anti-aircraft as well as anti-tank guns to be placed out in the area. We will play as the 2nd Light Division (Wehrmacht), which was part of the 15th Army Corps, 10th Army, Heeresgruppe Süd. The 10th army was commanded by Herman Hoth, and the armygroup as a whole was commanded by Generaloberst Gerd von Rundstedt. Its initial objective was to drive from Silesia towards Warsaw (by the 8th Army and 10th Army), and to destroy the Polish forces around Kraków (by the 14th Army). a.
