Modlin (PC2)

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

## Briefings

Urgent dispatch just came in, mein General. Scouts approaching Modlin have detected a large body of Polish troops very close to our positions.

But these enemy units aren't moving to engage, they're battered and trying to fall back to reinforce positions around the fortress at Modlin.

If we act quickly and attack swiftly, we should be able to cut their numbers down significantly, making our main objective much easier. Speaking of which...

**Primary Objective: Capture all Victory Hexes.**

Our assigned task is to lay siege to Modlin and its fortifications.

We are advised to keep a clear distance from Modlin. Our small force lacks the capabilities to assault such a fortress directly.

But by clearing out the surrounding area, we should be able to set up an effective siege. Isolated and neutralized, more specialized forces can mop them up later.

To victory, for Germany!

### Debriefing

Herr General, I have urgent reports for your attention.

General der Panzertruppe Werner Kempf sends his thanks for your support in isolating Modlin, and sends his assurances that the fortress will be dealt with in due time.

Before we turn our advance south, however, there is another matter I feel compelled to bring to your attention.

Our rapid advance has clearly caught the Polish completely off guard, because we've started to encounter Polish civilian columns fleeing the conflict.

As you know, our orders regarding non-combatants is clear: We're supposed to turn them over to our 'friends' over at Operational Group E for identification and processing.

But we have captured so many civilians that we're going to lose valuable time keeping them secure until the OGE can take custody of them.

Mein General, if I may be so bold to suggest it... we could 'accidentally' lose track of the civilians, and just let them go on their way.

The OGE might be displeased, but what can they do to us? Nothing but file a worthless complaint I imagine. Meanwhile, the time and energy we save can surely be put to better and more interesting use.

I will await your decision just before our next battle.

**Historically, the fortress at Modlin would continue to hold out against the Germans until almost the very end of the Polish campaign.**

## Messages

* ***Hauptmann Wagner:*** Interesting report just came in, Mein General. Apparently our salvage and repair crews have come across the wrecks of numerous Polish armored trains. So many in fact, they have taken it upon themselves to cobble together a fully armed and functional Panzerzug for our own use. It is apparently already ready for immediate deployment...

I must say, this is certainly unexpected. I will have to make some kind of arrangements to reward their initiative! Just remember that whenever you deploy this particular unit to the field, it is restricted to moving on railroad lines only.
