RE: Evacuating Factories - How?

<t> I have just upgraded to 1.08beta and was about to try the Sovs - I cannot see the >> dialogue to move factories when I select a location to move (Minsk) in T1. Is there a time limit, or am doing something wrong here to open the move dialogue.<br/>

RE: Road to Smolensk (Axis) AAR - newbie

<r> At the end of turn two, Minsk has been taken, and the Panzers relieved, but at a slight cost to the campaign in the south.<br/>
Vitebsk has been evacuated in the North, and will be taken successfully in turn three. Off map to the north is a pocket of Sovs above the Daugava/Dvina which risk ...

RE: Road to Smolensk (Axis) AAR - newbie

<r> So, here's the Russian response, and the dispositions at the start of turn two at the centre of the southern theatre around Minsk. As expected, the Minsk Panzers are (briefly) cut off from supply, which will slow the advance. However, the drive for Vitebsk in the north (not in the shot) has ...

RE: Road to Smolensk (Axis) AAR - newbie

<r> Learnings from turn one, were that I didn't actually need the Panzers to crush the Soviets in the salient, the overwhelming strength of infantry made that easy in any case. With hindsight, I probably used too many infantry units for unnecessary attacks, as the Sovs could be mopped up later - I ...

RE: Road to Smolensk (Axis) AAR - newbie

<r> This scenario demonstrates the challenges of making an opposed river crossing, so siezing the land bridge between the Daugava and the Dnepr in the triangle formed by Vitebsk, Mogilev and Smolensk is critical to success.<br/>
