<r> I too had this same problem a few turns back. Stopped my entire AGC for almost 2 weeks basically. One stinkin partisan, and i still can't figure out how exactly to best prevent it. At the moment, i have 2 division broken down and defending every other hex along the most critical rail net in Sept ...

I second that, thanks to the dev team for the improvements!

I find that ensuring full strength security units are initially stationed in the captured cities<br/>
for a couple of turns seems to reduce the appearance of the partisans, if that any help.

<r> Real newbie question, having never played the Soviets.<br/>
<br/>
Does the partisan unit itself have to move into the rail hex it is attacking, or does it attack from a distance? Also, can the partisan unit move next to an enemy combat unit? I know that when an enemy combat unit moves next to ...

<r> Still haven't really heard what is the best way to defend against partisan attack while your one rail line is still super vulnerable in 41 (and when you don't yet have a loop built out).<br/>
<br/>
Should you put one regiment every other or third hex along the line? Does that do ANYthing, or ...

<r> I solved it finally, i unattached the Slovakian Mobile division from the corps (which had the corps over the limit of 8 by a tad) and then could do it. Not sure if it was due to being over the corps limit or due to the presence of the Slovakians themselves (i.e. can't do it with Slovaks attached ...

Ok, unless corrected by higher authority here are your answers.<br/>

You've given a clinic on the pain "partisans" are in this phase of the war, but you didn't mention "garrisons" for key cities. As you may know, one must put security forces in such cities until you see +100% garrison (shftK to see.) This ...

<r> I am playing the Germans, turn 9. It is in the AGS region, i have a panzer corps HQ within 20 hexes and 28 MPs from the railhead (shows that on the hex), the corps' divisions either didn't move at all or moved one hex and are all within 5 hexes of the HQ, i have over 100 APs, yet it will not ...

<t> I have played this game for more than a year, but amazingly, this is the first time a partisan has ever cut a rail line behind me. And, the result of it seems way out of proportion bad, although I may be missing something.<br/>
<br/>
It is turn 9 of the campaign, and I have the one rail line ...

Yeah, i see that Pelton mentions that you has taken XX arms and XX HI, how does he know this?

<r> Also, impressed with the Janis defense, not sure how the Finns break that given the few (or one) hex they can attack from other than hitting it at 1-2 attacks and hoping for a good result. Maybe the only way around it is to take Leningrad and flank it from behind eventually, but that means that ...

<r> Hey MT. I am playing my first game as the Soviets (been playing exclusively Germans for 2 years), and i am wondering 1) where did you get all the divisions for the North and Central fronts, how many came directly from the south? and 2) it looks like you have put around 11 divisions on the Janis ...

<r> As regards making the game reflect history more, the most important things to me are:<br/>
<br/>
1) Make the runaway strategy a non-starter, make it such that you WILL lose the game (for either side) if they play a runaway type strategy. Using NM will help with this, but the only way to really ...

All this nitpicking about pockets is losing sight of the purpose for doing this in the first place: to keep Sovs from running away. Speaking bluntly, we are right back to square one here if we decide arbitrarily that pockets don't count here ...

<r> Aren't your advanced forces, notably those east/southeast of Smolensk and those now encircling Kiev (and even the ones in the Dnepr bend in the south) hopelessly at the very end or past their supply line max, especially now the panzers exploiting towards Moscow and east of Kiev?<br/>
<br/>
And ...

<r> I am in the same dilemma. Playing the campaign as the Germans PBEM, and it is turn 6 and since turn 4-5 my panzers all over the front have been at 15-23 or so MPs, not much i can do about it, other than a HQBU, as my HQs are at 20-25 hexes and 30-35 MPs from the railhead. <br/>
