Early War Night-Fighting


Recommended Posts

Anyone knowledgeable in this area?

I am currently playing an early-war

Op (set in July,'41, the crossing of

the Berezina by 18th PD) in which the

Night battles are just resupply and

repositioning turns-no fighting is

allowed.

The design notes state that "neither

side had yet mastered it [nightfighting]".

What do you guys think? I have done

some reading on this topic but haven't

come to a definite conclusion either

way.

I am currently working on a large Op

inspired by the battles around Novgorod

and Staraya Russa (August 1941) and am

wondering about the night-fighting

settings that would be most realistic.

The Germans in this Op project are Panzer

troops, and the bulk of the Soviets

are Conscripts...is being a Conscript

itself a sufficient handicap in night-

fighting, or should I bar them from it?

Any informed opinions welcomed...

Thanks,

Matt
