GC41 - Saper222 (Ger) vs Kamil (Sov) (No Saper222)

[KamilS]

T106 south (Soviet)


After not too careful assessment (as always) of my troops I decided to abandon any planes of regaining territory to the west and focus my attention on Saper's bait. I think in the longer run it will enable me recapturing more ground - shifting southwards will create more opportunities of morale building attacks. Or so I hope.

[KamilS]

T106 morale (Soviet)


Slowly comrades are becoming half-decent fighting force.

[KamilS]

T107 center (Soviet)

No German attacks.

New units - 3 mech brig


Slowly Leningrad (Lipetsk - Tambov area) and Northern Caucasus Fronts are crawling towards enemy lines.

[KamilS]

T107 south (Soviet)


I made far far less attacks than I expected I would be able to.

[amaniacwithacar]

Awesome AAR, just keep attacking him and you should be fine!

[jaw]

Kamil,

What are you doing with your air force? I see your numerical superiority growing turn by turn and wonder why you are not expending more of this air power attacking Axis forces (air and ground)?

I have to confess, that barely anything.

I'd be interested to see you attack some of his fortified positions more, especially around Moscow - the offensive CV's of the underlying units do not indicate a lot of strength, and with a healthy dosage of sappers you should be able to make a lot of that puffed up defensive CV go away...

I will soon face manpower shortage, so I do not want do launch to many failed attacks that is why I prefer to attack in area where terrain I more favourable and his troops density is lower.

[KamilS]

T108 center (German)


Saper reminded me by well placed counter-attack that I Wehrmacht is still force to be reckoned with.

[KamilS]

T108 south (German)


Surprisingly pressure on my left flank is increasing. It is good news.

[KamilS]

T108 center (Soviet)

New units - 3 mech brig


I try to find weak spots in Saper's defence. To be honest I do not expect much progress during summer of '43.

[KamilS]

T108 south (Soviet)


Attacks on my positions south of Stalingrad are really great opportunity to build up morale cheaply.

[KamilS]

T109 center (German)


Leningrad Front (operating near Tambov) is still weak. Very tempting target for counter-attacks.

[KamilS]

T109 south (German)


Not encouraging sight in the southern Stalingrad approaches - German infantry is building their fortifications really fast.

[KamilS]

T109 center (Soviet)

New units - 1 inf div, 1 inf brig, 3 mech brig


First city recaptured (Lipetsk), but I don not see many more following soon.

[KamilS]

T109 south (Soviet)


I need several new infantry divisions here so I can form corps without thinning lines.

[Fishbed]

There is clearly a lot of people to trap southeast of Rostov. But I suppose it's doubtful that you may achieve a gigantic blow without concentrating all your strength there. That would require at least a solid pre-emptive attack elsewhere to have him shift his troops...

He is too strong and I am too weak for such ambitious moves.

T110 south (German)


Saper maintains close contact.
