In October 16, 1942 a special order of the People's Commissariat of Defense instituted a regulation that tank and mechanized corps be used as single entities for powerful attacks and counterattacks, and prohibited the fragmented use of these valuable operational formations.
Armored corps were no longer dispersed into several battle groups and attacks occurred in unison.
What if Hitler issues this order? The Panzer divisions no longer turn into a general purpose lab to conjure up various (often brigade and regimental sized) Kampfgruppen and instead must defend or attack as a single body.
What happens to the nature of WW2 from late 1942 onward?
