          When the Germans invaded Russia in 1941, the 1st Panzer Division was part of Army Group North  
  and helped push to the outskirts of Leningrad. In October, the 1st Panzer was shifted to Army Group 
  Center and advanced to the outskirts of Moscow. Then came the Russian counteroffensive and the divi-
  sion spent most of 1942 fighting on the defensive, sometimes having so few tanks it looked more like a 
  motorized infantry division than a panzer division. Even worse, in June of 1942, one panzer battalion 
  was transferred away, leaving the division with only one understrength battalion of nearly obsolete 
  tanks. In January of 1943, the division was finally pulled out of the front and sent to France for a major 
  refit.  
          Note: this division is shown at full strength (except for the panzers) but for any scenario set in 
  1942, this division should be depicted at some sort of reduced strength, due to the amount of action it 
  had seen during the year, especially in the early months.
