Suggestion: deploy units only in homeland

The point is at this time in the game you shouldn't be able to get 3 x 7-1 attacks in 2 months!
Certainly the Germans should be having trouble mounting them across the line but they should at least be able to mount a sustainable offensive at a point of their choosing. It will be interesting to see if it happens, it will take some good play to make that work!

Ouch! Nothing like pressure!

The key word in your statement is 'sustainable.' I believe at this point in the game I could pick a spot, throw all my armor and mech into it, and make a breakthrough. What do I follow it up with, however?

Perhaps we have simply reached 1943 on the East Front, in 1942.

Geographically it's more like the summer of 44 [:)]

Actually, it is worse then you think.  It is more like 1945 in 1942.  If your opponent went with the Russian front first strategy, you would be on the border of Germany and Poland fighting with a bunch of 1-3 Infantry.  But Chuck knows he has the upperhand to such a huge degree, he is building up to try exotic, fun type, and he also wants to keep the AAR going.  A sadistic strategy.  I guess what I am saying is, Chuck is toying with you.  Realize, he wants to sustain the AAR and he will not take any challenges with him as Axis.  It is not your fault, the game simply has no balance.

Glenn's analysis is incorrect.

Toying with me, is he!!?

We'll show him 'toying' when he sets foot on Portuguese, Spanish, French, Belgian, Dutch, Danish, Italian, or Yugoslavian soil. But not Russian soil. We have him just where we want him in Russia.

Take that, Chuck!
