A recent offensive in Kursk has crippled the Wehrmacht, forcing it into retreat on much of the Eastern Front. Amongst the chaos of the retreat is the 28th Army commanded by General Friedrich Aldas, an officer from Wolffendorf (annexed by Nazi Germany in 1938). The 28th Army under direct orders from Adolf Hitler has been assigned the duty of holding a patch of land known to the Germans as Westen Weise. Counter offensives by the Red Army have kettled the 28th Army into a pocket - The Westen Weise Pocket. Holding the pocket is vital for the Germans due to the large number of troops, vehicles, supplies and land it contains. Taking the pocket is vital for the Soviets because it will open the front for an offensive into Poland and towards Germany.
