Move-wise FitE

The 35th Inf Div moves onto the road in the spot indicated and are placed on ready reserve.

[larryfulkerson]

Now we move the 6th Inf Div. The HQ moves to a better position to share its arty tubes and two regiments have to move to get into an adjacent position and all three regiments attack at min. losses.

[larryfulkerson]

Now we move the 26th Inf Div. The HQ moves to a better position to share its arty tubes and two regiments have to move to get into an adjacent position and none of the three regiments has enough movement points to attack in the second round.

[larryfulkerson]

Now to move the 7th Panzer Div. The HQ unit and all elements except for the recon units move up the road one hex and go into ready reserve. The HQ unit fires in direct fire at the Soviet unit two hexes away.

[larryfulkerson]

The 20th Panzer Div entire except for one recon element moves to the spot indicated and goes into ready resserve.

[larryfulkerson]

The 20th Panzer Gren. Div. moves to the spot indicated. None of the regiments has enough movement points left to fire in the second round of the first turn.

[larryfulkerson]

The 12th Panzer Div doesn't need to move to attack again, at min. losses, the Soviet stack blocking the road. Two regiments and the HQ unit attack directly.

[larryfulkerson]

The 19th Panzer Div is next in our consideration. Nothing moves but the tanks are removed from the battle this time...too many tanks lost in the trees last time we attacked there. One Panzer Gren. regiment is tasked to conduct a limited attack at min. losses.

[larryfulkerson]

Next is the 18th Panzer Div. Nothing moves, the HQ unit fires in direct mode at the Soviet stack blocking the road.

[larryfulkerson]

The 255th Inf Div moves to the spot indicated exhausting it's movement points as it does so.

[larryfulkerson]

Now we assign the 31st Inf Div the task of reducing the Soviet pillbox complex on the road junction. I assigned some aircraft to combat support to help out this time.

[larryfulkerson]

The 34th Inf Div HQ unit fires at the Soviet pillbox two hexes away and the three regiments of the division are assigned the task of destroying the Soviet MP unit on the road.

[larryfulkerson]

The 45th Inf Div and all it's regiments are to attack the Soviet pillbox complex at min. losses.

[larryfulkerson]

I think I made a mistake moving the 10th Panzer Gren. Division. I may have moved them too soon. I moved them around the roadblock, eating up all their movement points and it'll be turn 2 before I can use them again. If I had just waited until that Soviet MP unit was destroyed they could play a role in reducing the Soviet pillbox complex.

[larryfulkerson]

I moved the 1st Kav Div to be ready in turn 2 to sprint ahead and scout out all the good places to attack and to take up the slack in the surround on the pillbox complex at the road junction.

[larryfulkerson]

The 17th Panzer Div doesn't move but the HQ unit and two of the regiments directly attack the Soviet stack next to the road.

[larryfulkerson]

Next to move is the 167th Inf Div. The HQ unit and one of the regiments move one hex to the NE. The HQ unit goes to tac. res. mode and the regiment doesn't have enough movement points to take part in round twos attacks.

[larryfulkerson]

The next formation to move is the 444th Sec Div. I moved the regiments first and neglected to move one hex at a time, just clicking on my intended destination for the first regiment and the regiment moved right past a Soviet armour unit sitting in the road. I lost some people on that move. The other regiment moved adjacent to the Soviet armour unit and the HQ unit moved up to provide arty support.

[larryfulkerson]

The 454th Sec Div is next. The HQ unit doesn't have any movement points left but the two regiments move up next to the Soviet Mountain unit.

[larryfulkerson]

In the 168th Inf Div, the HQ unit and all three regiments directly attack the Soviet unit in the green oval.
