Axis Crimean Campaign on Windows Pc

**** Crimean Campaign 1941-1942, seizing Sevastopol while fighting off multiple Soviet amphibious landings. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011


Plans for Operation Barbarossa ignored the Crimean Peninsula, but after the Soviet Air Force operating from Sevastopol attacked critical oil fields in Romania, the Germans quickly changed their minds and decided to seize the Crimea. The first attempt to break through the Perekop Isthmus to the Crimean Peninsula was interrupted by the Soviet counterattack, with the Red Army breaking a Romanian sector of the main front line. This distraction allowed the Soviet Navy to evacuate their coastal army from Odessa to Sevastopol, crushing German dreams of a quick victory in the area. And if getting through the Perekop Isthmus required two attempts, the **** forces faced the same exact frustration when trying to wrestle control of Sevastopol: After quickly seizing most of the Crimean Peninsula, German offensives against Sevastopol were interrupted multiple times by the Red Army making amphibious landings in different parts of the Crimean Peninsula.Plans for Operation Barbarossa ignored the Crimean Peninsula, but after the Soviet Air Force operating from Sevastopol attacked critical oil fields in Romania, the Germans quickly changed their minds and decided to seize the region.

"11th Army's task was to assault the enemy's last Crimean stronghold, Sevastopol. The sooner this was achieved, the less time the enemy would have to organize his defence and the greater would be the prospect of success... The heavy fighting for the pill-boxes, which the enemy defended with stubborn determination, was sapping the strength of our troops, and the severe cold to which they were henceforth exposed taxed their energies to the utmost. Nevertheless, in the last few days of December the tip of the spearhead drew near to Fort Stalin, the capture of which would at least have given our artillery visual command of Severnaya Bay. All we needed now were fresh troops... Such was the situation when the Soviet amphivious landings struck, first at Kerch and then at Feodosia. The threat was a deadly one, coming as it did at the very moment when almost the entire forces of the army were in action around Sevastopol!"
