Platinum Fox (WWIIB-series):

The two divisions advanced in two directions. In the south the 3rd Mountain Division was able to penetrate the Soviet lines at the Titovka Valley in one day after fierce fighting. In the north the 2nd Mountain Division also made good progress in the first hours to secure the neck of the Rybachy Peninsula. The offensive soon met with heavy Soviet resistance, especially from some ad-hoc ground units of the Soviet Northern Fleet.

Hold The Line (WWIIB-Series)
“Red waves against a Blue Wall”
The Battle of Krasny Bor is game no 1. in HOLD THE LINE™. The Soviet offensive near the town of Krasny Bor formed the western arm of the Northern pincer of Operation Polar Star. The Soviet offensive began on the 10 February 1943, and produced noticeable gains on the first day but rapidly became a stalemate. The strong defense by the Spanish Blue Division and the German SS Polizei Division gave the German forces time to reinforce their positions.
”Stand firm”
The Battle of Smerdynia-Lyuban is game no 2. in HOLD THE LINE™. While the 55th Army attacked Krasny Bor, the objective of 54th Army was to create a shallow encirclement of the German 96th Div, which was recovering from the earlier fighting at Sinyavino. The army was to attack north of the village of Smerdynia in the direction of Tosno where it would meet the 55th; it would then attack towards Lyuban to divert the attention of German 18th Army from the deep encirclement being planned by Northwestern Front once its forces captured the Demyansk salient and its defenders.
Hold the Line™ is a game recreating the battles of Krasny Bor and Smerdynia-Lyuban, 1943.
