Scenarios

I understand that the new Moscow game will include several scenarios:
1. Overall historic German Operation Typhoon
2. At the gates (final lunge towards Moscow)
3. Soviet counterattack.
I would like to suggest another scenario. Historically the German offensive did not start until very late - early October I believe. It could have begun quite a bit earlier but Hitler insisted on diverting the panzers to the south to capture Kiev before going after Moscow. This caused two problems: delayed the Moscow offensive by about a month and resulted in a lot of wear and tear on the tanks and other critical gear. So having an alternative history scenario "no Kiev diversion" would change the weather, German unit strength, and units available to the Russians.
I think this might add even more fun to the game.
Perhaps it could be added as DLC sometime after the games initial launch.
