Pelton (GHC) Vs Arstavidios 1.04.28

[Tarhunnas]

Ruler straight line there in the south! That's German precision![;)]

[Tarhunnas]

ORIGINAL: Pelton

I am closely following T vs Q-balls game and this one.

The differences so far between the 2 are.

Tarhunnas has done better in the center, destoryed more units and factorys.
I have done better in the south and destoryed more AP and HVY units. I beleive my loses are less then his also.

Tarhunnas has destoryed

51 Armaments only 14%
29 Heavy Industry 13%

I have destoryed

141 Armaments 38%
58 Heavy Industry 25%

We both advanced about at the same speed in the north and center. I advanced much faster in the south. He bagged Moscow and I didn't.

Be interesating to see how both play out to see whats more important.

Pelton

Ah, good, someone is counting [:)]. There are 7 AP and 7 HI locked in Stalino and Makeevka too, did you count them in?

You are way ahead of what I accomplished in the industry department. I think the Sovs in your game will have a hard time to recover from that.

[Mynok]

You really are doing the regimental linebacker. I'll be curious to see how that holds up.

[Peltonx]

Tarhunnas I took my time and carefully counted in my game and yours I beleive doesn't count them (7 and 7) per Q. I have been counting in all my games to date. I am not sure what counts as a win if I ever get a game to go into 1944ish.

I am interested to see how things play out seeing both games are taking a little different story line. Are factories more important then AP's and Hvy?

I have way less kills, because Arstavidios ran everyways other then in front of Moscow. I accomplished all my goals then some as far as ap's goes. You really did very good taking Moscow, you did much better in the center then I did.

The big question is Tarhunnas what is enough to put a hurting on the russian player to the point they cant fully recover? I am guessing 120ish or mybee as low as 100. I been able to reach 120ish in all of my games so far and every winter has been easy. I am about to hit 1942 summer verves Hoooper. Hes a very good player and held on to Moscow like Arstavidios, but only lost in the 120 range.


Mynok I do the 3 reg's thick until the first blizzard turn then I do 2 and 1 for 2 or 3 turns. The reason I go 3 deep is I have 3 deep of level 3 forts so I can fall back if needed. So far its worked great even vs Hoooper. Most times I am still in the last line of level 3 forts by Jan.

[Mynok]

I'm eager to see how that goes and learn from it.

[Peltonx]

Turn 26 before moves.

AGN

This is winter number 5 for me.
Last turn losses were about 77k ( counts Atrrition) he lost 68k. There was 35 hexs attacked and many had more then one. Looks like for every man I lost he lost 2.5.

I have an exact number for the next few turns.

Least amount of men lost todate on the first turn of winter.

I have for the first time moved allot of Infantry and Tank divisions to Germany. I think I have a good feel for what I need to have at front from my last 4 winters. I am basing this on his and my losses and what industry I was able to tank and the player I am playing againsts play style.

A good test to see if I am right or wrong.

The numbers, are they the sum of HI and ARM lost?

[Peltonx]

100 AP and 45 hvy sorry.

[kevini1000]

He's being very agressive attacking so far, your lines might be well tested.

[Mynok]

Why do you move your Army Group HQs so close to the front? [X(]

They have a humongous contact range.

[Peltonx]

because of the fort 5/5/5 rule.

The forts I am told build faster.

Not sure if that true or not. Does it matter if they are close or not? I got no idea.

Like I been saying I am ignorant of allot about this game other then getting 100% out of MP's and Hq's.

Planes? Yes I put them near front is about all I know about them heheh.

Pelton

[Mynok]

I agree with your airbase usage. Not sure about those AG HQs but I'll listen to anything you've seen that supports your position. Let us know. We're all still learning this beast. [:D]

[Peltonx]

End of Turn 26

27 SHC attacks: 22 wins and 5 losses

Losses
GHC 102K about 25k from attacks and 75k from General Winter. Total Blizzard losses so far 175,000.
SHC 50k

Not sure why he waste attacking when he gets 3x the deaths for doing nothing.

Lines are looking fine no real threats yet. Most of line is in the 2nd line of level 3 forts.

Having same problem I had in one other game vs Cyclops my man power pool is at 370000 and growing. Any ideas on why?

I know it be really great come spring, but could use the manpower at front.

How's armaments? That's what turns manpower into useful things.

I have been seeing tendencies of the same thing now in my two games, plenty of men but no rifles. See: tm.asp?m=2838922. I am apprehensive about this because in my first 1942 campaign, my army basically fell apart in the autumn of 1943 because of an armaments problem that is now supposedly fixed. See: fb.asp?m=2739973&go=last for the AAR.

[Peltonx]

I have destoryed

141 Armaments 38%
58 Heavy Industry 25%

Seems low I check my next turn

[Peltonx]

End of Turn 27

39 SHC attacks: 33 wins and 6 losses

Losses
GHC 117K about 34k from attacks and 70k from General Winter.
SHC 61k

Ok the Armaments bug is back or something like it again my manpower pool has jumped up from 270k to 320k to 370k the last 3 turns. Like I explianed with my game vs Cyclops the pool was over 1 million by March 1st.

This game will be on hold until this bug has been addressed [:@]

I have lost 300k troops and none have been replaced for the last 3 turns.

Not sure if this is a bug or not, but until someone explains why this is going on I will have to put this game on hold at this turn.

Did you check the levels of equipment in the pool? When I encountered this before, it just seemed the case that my army's total ability to accept reinforcements (about 250k a turn) couldn't keep up with the rate that blizzard attrition was dumping manpower and equipment back in Germany. Distance to railhead limits how many reinforcements a division can receive each turn, but there seems to be no corresponding limit to what gets sent back to the pool.
