SPECIAL SCENARIO RULES:
  - OAF 1.1.1: TERRAIN: All bridges across streams are 
    stone single lane set with explosives. All buildings on board 10 are of wooden 
    constructions. The marketplace on Board 12 is treated as a single story building 
    (each hex has a ground level). Building 12U5 is a three story building ins 
    hex 12U5 only; the other hexes of this building are two story. The following 
    buildings on Board 123 are stone: AA7, T7, U6, U5, V4, V5, V2, S5, R2. Hexes 
    13 GG4, FF4, A4, B3, C3 and C4 are all marsh. If woods are present, then its 
    s wooded marsh. There is not clear ares through marsh areas They ar continuous 
    with each other and pond/stream. Movement along the forest path (10F4) cost 
    infantry 1MF/ Calvary 2 MP but has no other affect. The rowhouse status of 
    buildings on board 10 are ignored (10AA5) . Treat as level 1 connected stone 
    buildings.
 
  - OAF 1.1.2: The Russians get random air support consisting 
    of 2x IL-2M3 Modified Sturmovik armed with 24 MG/37L cannon mounted beneath 
    the wings (ROF 2).
 
  - OAF 1.1.3: The German 8-0 leader doubles 
    as a demolitions expert. He can attempt to explode the demolitions for each 
    besides starting on turn 1, once per friendly fire phase. This goes on until 
    all the bridges are demolitioned or at least until the explosives go off. 
    In addition, the 8-0 leader or other units can attempt to place a DC as per 
    rules 133.7. Rules under 133.7 for hidden demotions apply. Bridges may be 
    mined as well. Note, DC charges listed in the setup are in addition to those 
    under the bridges. If the 8-0 is killed, the Demos under the brides cannot 
    be exploded.
 
  - OAF 1.1.4: All SS infantry are equipped with camouflage 
    smocks. Add +1 DRM on all To Hit or IFT attacks made against SS infantry when 
    in woods, brush, and when concealed.
 
  - OAF 1.1.5: The Germans may boresight.
 
  - OAF 1.1.6: All German positions war well camouflaged 
    at the start of the game. Place on concealment counter on each potential German 
    positioned; German units are kept off board (of HIP if VSQL) until concealment 
    is lost by normal means. Excess concealment counters may be used to note dummy 
    positions but all actual German units must be concealed. Snipers are HIP per 
    normal rules, no concealment is needed for snipers. The German ATGs may define 
    their covered arc when revealed.
 
  - OAF 1.1.7: Prior to setup and preceding Turn 1, the 
    Russian secretly plots 4 hexes to be subjected to 150mm Harassing fire. The 
    German player then places his concealment counters on the board. The Russian 
    then resolves two turns of FFE prior to moving on the board (each FFE is performed 
    twice).
 
  - OAF 1.1.8: The two Trench counters function 
    as weapon pits for reinforce camouflage gun emplacements. The SS gun crew 
    operation from inside weapon pits when firing their ATG and my derive protection 
    for the Trench modifier, in addition to the gun shield for all IFT attacks, 
    or any attack resolved on the IFT. AFVs may not drive in or out of these weapon 
    pits.
 
  - OAF 1.1.9: The Stream is shallow (GIA 157).
 
  - OAF 1.1.10: German Spw251 may setup concealed 
    in woods. Use a large Concealment counter to denote its position and the counter 
    remain off board until exposed. A;; must record its covered arc. The large 
    concealment does not account against the initial allotment of 30.
 
 AFTERMATH:  The front stabilized 
when the Russians could not punch through the front to envelop and destroy the 
SS divisions. After persistent and fruitless bludgeoning of the well entrenched 
and camouflaged SS Panzerkorp, the Fifth Guards Tank Army gave up its attack and 
another calm settled over the shaky front held by the Germans northwest of Warsaw. 
The Totenkofp divisions exceptional combat performance did not escape Hitler;s 
attentions. Hitler claimed that if he had a few more extra battalions to sent 
SSTK, the situation might improve because, "whenever one sent them reinforcements, 
they always counterattacked successfully."
