Have you checked with the developers to see if they can revive the game on the server?

Here other examples of PvP games where SCOUT intensity causes ROUTS. The results are obv. only showing the ROUT but the finalCV show that it have all been SCOUTs.
For the two German examples (there are way more) you see the transfer from SCOUT to ROUT in the footage.

I think most players house rule it out.

Putting the game mechanics aside and thinking in 'real world' terms. If you aren't flying your own fighters then there is nothing keeping the enemy escorts from leaving their bombers and going after yours. So essentially their mission can change from escort (which is unnecessary) to CAP - which they ...

Cross post of my reply from Kamil's AAR as the same issue came up...



Not sure what the big issue is with the factory evacuations. The IRL Soviets managed to get pretty much everything out before the Axis reached the cities. But it wasn't like one day the industry was there and the next day it ...

When I was planning my general strategy I wanted to push as fast as possible to create dillema for Soviet player - defend industry or face threat of encirclement.

Unfortunatelly it is really not dillema as all major industrial centers will just relocate and after after brief period produce ...

I'd say that there are essentially 4 different tasks that you might assign an infantry unit when making a pocket.

1) Maintaining the Western and North/Southwestern sides of the pocket (when playing Axis). These are the troops that are protecting your own rear areas and which will likely play the ...

How are the OOBs looking?

1.- Level 3 Trenches dont decay? Nah, confirmed it decays. 3-4% droped to 2 - 98%.

2.- Can these (or level 2) be built in second line areas (not in contact with enemy, with regular troops, not with fortified regions)... I do have some of them in 4th or 5th line... but unsure if they were built ...

All quiet on the Eastern Front? Looking forward to the next installment!

Depending on the date, the 'off map' areas of Finland may not have fallen to Axis. I think that whilst they are still in Soviet hands Leningrad can trace supply back to them? I don't have the game open atm but I think they flip in late September 1941.

Link to living rules? I searched Google but all versions I found had original rule.

Also, any idea why this change was made? Against a computer AI, sure, but against a competent human Axis, it is already difficult (impossible) to replicate historic Soviet successes. If anything, the increase in ...

What victory conditions are you playing?

If sudden death is enabled you must be close to the T29 Axis auto-loss number (high watermark below 525).

Ignore my previous posts - I was reading the TOE screen backwards and thinking that the list on the right was the 'target' TOE.

I see what you mean now - seems strange that those units don't hold onto their 43 squads.

In your two examples the unit changes from the 43 Guards Corps TOE (which has a mixture of 43 rifle squads and Rifle Squad + elements and 162 SMG elements) to the 44 Guards Corps TOE (which only has Rifle Squad + elements and 486 SMG elements).

As a result of the TOE change they send their 43 ...

The Soviet example the unit elements pretty much stay the same (hence no xp loss) but it changes to a new smaller TOE (which makes the % go up) and gains CPP. It's just really unusual in those early turns to have a Soviet unit at 54 morale, high toe and pretty much full CPP which is why the CV looks ...

@tyronec Is it maybe because in the second example they have to fly to the staging base?

Really enjoyed that - very impressive writing!

Good to see an AAR from one of the later campaign dates as well.

What do the artillery combat results look like in those examples? Are there noticeable differences in artillery performance between the halt attacks and the successful ones?

Three potential 'models' of how these halt decisions are made.

1) The decision is made using the 'raw' starting CV (perhaps ...

In terms of my understanding of halt attacks. We know that there is the fact d initial CV - this is not affected by leader rolls (if you don't count the commitment of reserve units). We know that the final CV is affected by leader rolls as you describe. My understanding is that these rolls take ...
