Clear
The front is quiet, only the engines of the soviet tanks can be heard each night as they are massed for assault. Snow has fallen at the end of the week.
No losses this week.

Germany has just got her 1st full strength Fw airwing. Production of these new aircrafts are very low but they have caused great losses for the VVS.
We now sit and wait for the Soviet blizzard attack. Any attack or advances before this would be foolish.

Hilter has ordered the Pz divisions to hold so a counter attacked was ordered with INF only. This resulted in big losses and we were unable to dislodge the enemy.

Hilter has ordered more Pz divisions to the front and the ones there too attack. The Soviet advancing armies are in full retreat all along the front.
In the south, a Soviet Inf korps has been encircled and destroyed.

Zhukov was sure the germans are bluffing with an all infantry defense. We are now in deep trouble. In the north axis air is massing around Lenningrad. Red air force returned with all of its might on all fronts to stop the german counterattack. In the centre the lonely fw unit was defeated.

Some blunders with the airforce has resulted in a much weaker air defence of Russia. Steps have been taken to ensure adequate cover is available again.
No action on the ground this week. Once again we sit back and wait for the Soviets to advance waiting to prounce on them with our hidden panzers.

The troops are happy that the panzers stayed back. But now they fear them, and did not dare to advance.

A very large counter attack has been call off at the last minute. The attack had its sights on encircling about 4 Soviet korps that had prevously advanced. The Panzers assigned to this attack have been ordered to take up position for mobile defence as this INF divisions move into there winter positions.

Red air force attacked in the centre this week. It found only a couple dozen old fokker's. They fought well but were destroyed. We bombed everything we saw. The enemy corpses and hq's were only decoy's, nothing in them. We had to advance. This time we have strong air cover, and we are moving ahead with full force. Panzers could strike us hard, but this time we will try to destroy them with our strong secon line.

Germany is in full retreat and there is nothing she can do to stop the massive amount of Soviets after her. Ground and lack of Soviet supplies is the only defences she has.

Air recon found 2 strong panzer korpses in the north. Air cover were experienced but low in numbers and flying old aircraft. They were overnumbered an eliminated. The 2 panzer korpses were full of infantry. Both suffered great losses to bombing, and then both of them were attacked and forced to retreat by a tank army. One of them were full off Finn's... Very nice to know most of this winter devils are dead. At the end of the week the weather turned very cold, blizzards have started.

Hidden Units
Enemy combat units which are not
adjacent to a friendly unit may be hidden
(not displayed) on the map. These enemy
units may be spotted each turn by friendly
air units located in HQ units. The more air
units an HQ has, the higher the chance
there is of spotting an enemy unit. The air
units have a range of 10 hexes to spot
hidden enemy units. Units are hidden
before each Orders Phase.
Such great effort was made to ensure all large concerntration of troops were positioned out of harms way. If my memory server me better this loss would of been avoided.
Our shattered front attempts to rally and move into our 2nd line of defence . Fw's have been entrusted to keep the skies clear of enemy bombers. Blizzard has started very badly for us.

Our supply is getting low, but the 4 tank armies were resupplied from air and they continued our attack in the centre. They shattered one korps and forced another one to flee with ease. In the north one german korps shattered, but the finns repulsed our attacks.
In the centre germans are using a never seen armada of fw's to support their troops in keeping Minsk. We probed their air defences but our bases are too far to fight them. We moved our bases closer, and strengthened our fighter force in the area. Hopefully the germans will flee again seeing 7000 fighters coming for them. Then our tank armies will take no prisoners.

Ground troops wait for supply, only minor skirmishes adjecent to Minsk (germans retreat), and in Finnland (finns hold). Red air force rests before the big test.

The Soviets have come up against my main line of defence. The attack against my well supplied and entrenched korp has shownthe strength of the Soviets and how brittle my troops are. I have had no option but to fall back.
