Background
----------------
After winter Uranus offensive, the russian army encircled about 300.000 Axis soldiers (all 6th Army elements and part of 4th Army) in the Stalingrad pocket. After the failure of "Wintergewitter" rescue operation the fate of the Stalingrad pocket was signed. Russian Army charge a new operation (codename: "Ring") to destroy the pocket (Hitler forbidden every retreat). After 24 days of bitter fighting Stalingrad was conquered by russian troops. Stalingrad and remain forever in russian hands.

 Victory Conditions
 ------------------------
Only for Human German Player

German side:  to hold three objectives (at least two in Stalingrad).

Russian side: Others conditions.

Remarks
------------
German player cannot buy/upgrade units (only remplacements are permitted) and can help the surrounding troops only by air (germans have 7 air transport).

In this scenario I try to employ Minefield. It is possible to attack an adversary in the adjacent hex (this is a limit of PG panzequp file !) but we can imagine that the minefield is large as the hexs around the icon.
