Byelorussia - Part I

Mein general, your adventure in Operation Barbarossa starts here, on the Bug River. Cross it and crash the poor soviet defences, then drive deeply your super-elite troops into Byelorussia. Our first objective is the city of Smolensk, then we'll try to capture Moscow and hopefully end the war in the East. Keep in mind that fast and decisive victories are the key for our advance. We must trap and annihilate the more soviet armies we can, otherwise we could suffer their conterattacks in the near future. Intelligence reports that the Soviets do not expect a german attack, anyway Brest-Litowsk and Byalistok seem well defended. Remember that if your assault is slowered for any reason, you will have to face immediate russian counterstrikes coming from Minsk!
