gids-tarhunnas(no tarhunnas)

[ComradeP]

I don't understand why Tarhunnas is running an offensive at all.

Because he has the units and sees a strategic weakness. Without the 1:1>2:1 rule, gids would've been in serious trouble and the primary thing hurting Tarhunnas are the high losses the Axis take when they retreat. Tarhunnas attacks because it's what would make sense for such a salient, but the game won't really let him. It's the same kind of problem as in 1942 for a deep defense: Soviet counterattacking capabilities are too good. They make backhand blows as if they're the Germans.

treu but tarhunnas has proven a good german player can do something and serious trouble ,comon ive been 3/4 of the game in serieus trouble ,90 % of the russian players would already have quited times ago,the only reason i didnt quit because i like lost causes and wanted to see how good i get back on my feet,tarhunnas also keeps attacking like it is 1941 ,which does affect hes total front

[gids]

ok T 109 he succeeded to vloses tha pocket again,but tbh the losses he has are to big for what he has trapped.....but i wont complain,im pretty sure i can break it open and ill try to hurt his panzers as much as possible ofc,also i decide to make extra tankcorpses in the south ,if given the time i can make finnaly a good offensive there

hungarians

[gids]

losses his panzerforce is getting a beating ,if grinded down and not on the move you shouldnt use em anymore,only maybe as a reserve force or mobile

T110
tarhunnas keeps trying to get a marginal victory out of this mess at Ryazan i let him do ,at the hungarian front i decide to gather a tankcorps army and making heavy guardunits with sapper,its a dream to slash through his weakened units and devestate his rear ,so i start making mech and tanks for there i just lack AP to do everything and time i need the time,tarhunnas is giving me an opportunity by grinding himself down in ryazan,so i will try to plan and excecute it coming turns

T111
the axis routed the rest of the trapped divisions,and he put all panzers in the back,i guess he will look for another weak spot,which are plenty ,will i attack or await the next assault ,knowing tarhunnas will surely come,his time is limited but so is mine tbh,he only have to stall and i should already have started pushing.the ryazan area i will start building up a reasonable frontline corps units in the back to RR ?because of his great achievements last 2 years i have problems on AP ,i need everything ;reserveunits ,SU units,changing planes ,assigning fronts,changing leaders,its 1 logistic mess
around the area stalingrad im building some units for the hungarian front,there will be my winteroffensive aswell,unless i notice hes building up there

[gids]

aftermove small assault

T112
seems tarhunnas is retreating all over central front ,and regaining strenght ,ill use the time to make Divisions and gain strenght aswell,i make some divisions again put units on refit mode[quote]T112

T113
We surrounded a hungarian divison and made it surrender...our first smal victory and in the summer,im building some new units and form some corps units
,i decide to breakhrough the hungarian lines .i do some opportunity attacks and make a foothold south over the Dnepr.

[gids]

breakthrough

[gids]

some weird numbers he made a jump to 4000 panzers??? i need to ask tarhunnas about it

RE: Jump in AFV strength

The Germans get a number of new Stug, Heavy Panzer, Panzerjaeger, and Panzer Bns in the summer of '43; this was the run-up to Citadel

The other factor is that AFV production goes up alot in 1943, as the PantherA comes on-line

[gids]

114

He sucsesfully repelled the tankcorp breakthrough with 2 SS divisions and some help from other panzerdiv.the key will be giving him no rest,even with my low account of units,i need to keep the initiative

[gids]

aftermove,fact is his assault is over

[gids]

i attack all over the central front,i have to keep him offbalance,it costs in panzers though
