Brunete

**Brunete** is a scenario in *Panzer Corps 2*.

## Briefings

Greetings once again, Herr General. I'm happy to see you have arrived here as quickly as you have. I'm certain the good lieutenant is at least partly to thank for your timely arrival. He certainly lives up to stories I've heard of German efficiency.

*Oberleutnant Wagner turns a shade of red, but merely nods in appreciation.*

I'm sure you have many questions, but time is of the essence, so I must be brief. We need your help to repel a major Republican counter offensive here, at Brunete.

*Primary Objective: Hold Brunete.*

*Bonus Objective: Capture all Victory Hexes.*

The Republican offensive has been underway for several days already, and so far we've been able to hold them off.

But it is only a matter of time before they launch new assault waves, and our reserve of Spanish infantry is perilously low. I can only offer you minimal Spanish reinforcements in this battle.

Mein General, I've reviewed the maps, and it looks like the Republicans are advancing across some relatively flat ground. Good for our Panzers, but it means we should expect a lot of Republican armored support. I would wager we'll encounter more than a few of their formidable T-26 tanks.

At the very least, we must hold Brunete. But if possible, we could actually counterattack and attempt to capture the enemy headquarters at Torrelodones.

I could be cautious with going on the offensive so soon. Scouts have reported more Republican reinforcements are moving to assault our positions as well as to fortify the gains they've already made.

Understood, it will be up to the General to decide how far we will be advancing then. To victory, for Germany!

And for Spain!

### Debriefing

**Historically, the Battle of Brunete was a failed Republican offensive. At the cost of many of their veteran troops, the Republicans were unable to break the Nationalist siege of Madrid.**
