-------------------------------
Follow-up to my Kursk: Blood and Sunflowers mission. The Russians have counterattacked, following a push by the German II SS Panzer Corps in the southern sector to relieve the faltering northern pincer in Operation Zitadel. The battle that ensues near the village of Prokhorovka on this rainy July day will be the largest tank-on-tank engagement in history, and will witness the Panzer VI Tigers unleashed against the Bolshevik onslaught from the East. The hand of death has signed the death warrants for thousands of young men in these farm fields today... Count yourself among them.

Author's note: Units and equipment are generally accurate, but there's a lot going on on July 12 in the southern pincer of the Battle of Kursk, and I don't proclaim to be an expert. If you notice something wrong, let me know. Enjoy some large-scale mechanized warfare!

(P.S. - You need to play this level as a stand-alone level in the campaign menu. Do not play it as a "full-campaign" with Kurk: Blood and Sunflowers. It will screw up the numbers of AI for this mission and wreck the balancing.)

These flag patterns on the right arm are really good-looking

This map is pants-on-head retarded.

@More Like Trombley - what are the circumstances of your issue? Are you playing as a "campaign" or as a single mission? USSR or Germany? I know there were some issues with coding that have been patched by the dev, so it could be that. Also try playing on the Beta version of ER2.

Kursk missions no longer work for me, I spawn as a single dude in a tank.

Also I recommend changing your environment from firefight 1 to firefight 2; sounds more realistic

Oh thank goodness.

It's only used as a photo model ;) It's not in the actual mission!

Please get rid of Tiger 133. I've levied this complaint to the mod author but, as it stands, that thing is WILDLY inaccurate, and shots go everywhere and anywhere.
