On 12 July the Luftwaffe and artillery units bombed the Soviet positions in the Kursk Pocket. The German advance started and they were astonished to see masses of Soviet armor advancing towards them. What followed was the largest tank engagement ever, with over 1,500 tanks in close contact. The air forces of both countries flew overhead, but they were unable to see anything through the dust and smoke pouring out from destroyed tanks. On the ground, commanders were unable to keep track of developments and the battle rapidly degenerated into an immense number of confused and bitter small-unit actions, often at close quarters. The fighting raged on all day, and by evening the last shots were being fired as the two sides disengaged. German losses amounted to over 300 tanks with the Soviets losing a similar number.In this Snapshot, we will attempt to recreate the fierce fighting in the Kursk Pocket.

So mark a date on your calendar and show up for a good time next wenesday June 1st at 10PM EST in the Special Events arena.

Moderators have a Life Limit setting, Players Can die 4 times on but the fourth time, they cant restart flight.

The CM tool is new and as in anything new there are kinks that have to be worked out. It may have been that a player discoed and the CM was letting him reup. To do so the tool would have been turned off. If a player is killed during that time it will obviously not register.
