Tom, shame upon you!

Correct name was IS-2, or JS-2

"ISU" was designation of heavy SP guns based on IS tank chassis!

Welcome... I also have the same feelingst towards battle schemes and maps. You can find heaps of batel schemes on my site.

As for battle maps copies they are too expensive to be posted for free... One copy of archival map (not battle scheme!) can cost ~$500- $1,000+ depending on its size...

Well, three exists a book about the 6th Gds. Tank corps. But it costs about $40... Right now my finances are far from ideal state, so thinking to buy, or not to buy it...

Maybe I have some oter info stored in my endless storages, but as usual they are closed because lack of time. Many books which I have contains fragmentated reposts about different fights. but they are not organized and to figure out what they are about I need to browse through ALL the book!!!

Thanks Alex, and I bet that book is in Russian as well to!! So I guess I am foiled again for now, maybe I'll find something sometime, do you know any other Russian "english" su=ite you know of that may have something more on this battle, or the book maybe?

Cheers, yes, I know what you mean about lack of time there buddy!! WINK

As I thought but I had to ask just to make sure there. I can think of a couple "game" sites that might have a reply or two to this topic. I will try there and see if they might have more info on this one.

Cheers, one more thing Alex, have you ever heard of this battle being gamed in some way, shape or form from any system, be it computer or tabletop?
