Let the penal battallions lead the way.

They will, don't worry [8D] Already gave them bayonets... Oh, and by the way, Stalin will lead the first murderous banzai charge. But NO bayonet for him, just a target on his chest [:D]

Ah, I hadn't seen that thread. Well, the person who created it (Emir Agic) said the opponents' mistake too. Humm, I can't do that. I know it's simply a game but that would sound like a joke [:)] Sire Chaos himself should do that, not me.

If I have to cite mistakes on that thread, there will ONLY be my mistakes [8D] Like this one, made on mere Turn 1 (first page of this AAR)...

I have sent my turn. I have to mention that I did a totally noobish thing [:@] Vassilevsky is now dead. He wasn't killed (no matter what the game says) [:D] I did assassinate him

So what happened? I knew HQs take a lot of rail points so wanted to save combat units first (especially when the Soviet Corps HQs will soon disappear). So I finally ran out of rail points and the HQs in the Lvov salient were ordered to march towards safety. Then I did use the ******* relocate thing... The Saint Vitus dance started (they were almost out of the pocket but the relocate thing placed them well inside the pocket again). As you may imagine, after 4 o 5 relocate things, the leader was finally killed... The victim (Vassilevsky that is) then was put in charge. The Saint Vitus dance continued (the HQ was still INSIDE the pocket) and after 3 or 4 relocate things he was finally assassinated (by me)...

[8|][:o]...[:D]

[TulliusDetritus]

Alright, phase one: 122 Infantry Division annihilated [8D]

[cookie monster]

GREAT!

It would be easy kills if you could get more fighters in the air.

[TulliusDetritus]

Phase 2: two more infantry divisions annihilated: 95th and 11st [8D]

[TulliusDetritus]

And now the 30 and 183 divisions! I thought the attack would fail here: fort level 3 [X(] Double ration of vodka to everyone! [:D]

Haha, I hadn't paid attention. Just one pilot managed to fly, correct. I guess the most drunk pilot... [8D]

EDITED almost 5 pm, I am off to the swimming pool. Will continue the massacre later. Anyway, I don't think I'll be killing anything else. I have to hug the panzers and form some barriers [8D]

[TulliusDetritus]

YES!!!!!!! I've got them!!!!! Finally!!!!!!!!!!

I was not expecting to any kill Panzer and Motorized units this turn! [X(] I attacked the same to "soften" them [8D] Somehow they're on the bag too! 8 Panzer and 36 Motorized divisions! RIP! [8D]

[TulliusDetritus]

Oops... and the 3rd Motorized Division [8|]

[TulliusDetritus]

And the last screenshot of this Leningrad, Northwestern and Kalinin Fronts. Well, now that in theory the killing is done, I think I used [perhaps] way too many resources (tons of divisions). But who knows. I wanted to make sure they did NOT escape, that's for sure! [8D] I don't think the cavalry thing is going to work at all, but oh well, let's terrorise him one more time [:)]

[randallw]

That drunken pilot really wants to be part of the action.

Maybe he made the difference [:D] When the men of the 122nd Infantry Division saw his plane they started droping their rifles en masse [8D]

Worst showing by an Axis human in an AAR so far.  Letting so many divisions get surrounded.

Harsh to say, but you're indeed correct... When did I start cutting off his AGN Panzers? [8|] Turn 8... He should have seen it coming. Or maybe he underestimated the Soviet counters. I have zillions. They may seem useless but...

On my email (I will send the turn tonight I guess) I will ask him why he ignored his exposed bloody right flank...

[cookie monster]

Stalin would be proud of your pixel truppen!

[randallw]

Wondering if your opponent will give up soon.

Possibly [8|] 8 divisions destroyed this turn + 5 divisions on next turn = 13 divisions [8|][8|][8|]

And maybe the two SS brigades too [:o]

If only he was alive [:D] I don't think he's survived that first murderous banzai charge against the men of the 122 Infanterie Division. I'll have to ask, just in case [8D]

[randallw]

What a slaughter! [:D]  Numerous German generals' head should roll for that.

Well, somehow Sire Chaos tricked me into playing a role-playing game. I never did that before (and I am not sure I like that. I still don't know how he convinced me). I accepted his offer so he might take his revenge there [:)] We will see.

[Senno]

Well, SireChaos has been neutered and won't be doing any Sireing with the lasses any longer. And there won't be a ourland Pocket, lol, they were smashed straight away. What does he fill this great void with? He can't send the Romanians or Hungarians that far north. Maybe he can convince the Bulgarians to enter the war and bring their long-johns with them, lawl.[;)] And pray his Panzers regenerate to an effective level before '44.

Smashing success. How he didn't see the danger before him, I've no idea.
