ultradave(WA) vs scout1(Ger), '43-'45 Campaign (Turn 88, Mar 3, '45)

ORIGINAL: ultradave

Holy ***** that's a lot of Germans in France. No wonder I'm not making much progress.

Well I've done it because they let me ..... [:D]

Have no idea as to how to tell where the evil Red horde is at .....

[ultradave]

August 4, 1944. The view from SHAEF. I think I need to find a way to stack 5 high to get enough combat power for successful attacks.

we're in early August of 44 .... tell me how to "see" the east front and will post

At some point you should see their gains reflected on the map when you scroll over to the eastern edge.

btw .... what does the "G" in my units stand for ?

You can have the counter show atk-def value, cv-mp, or garrison cv.
Garrison cv I think doesn't reflect impact of weather.

Historical positions:

[carlkay58]

To see the Soviet advance just zoom out and scroll to the right. The Soviet territory is in the dark gray area where units may no longer go.

[sven6345789]

Considering the shape of your eastfront-box they should be a ittle further west than historical.

If you hear a knock on the back door of the Neue Reichskanzlei in Berlin, DON'T OPEN THE DOOR!!!

[scout1]

Noppers ... Uncle Joe's Boys as of Aug 5th (current turn) are no where to be seen .....

[AWGreif]

Map information ... toggle enemy hex ON!
the Red Army is 5 hexes ahead of historical advance ... with that situation you are going to lose Berlin quite early.

[smokindave34]

You can see the Soviet advance versus historical in the East front box. The front line data shows two numbers - the first is the actual X coordinate for Soviet advance and the number in parenthesis is the historical. You'd better brace the gates of Berlin, the Soviets are getting close!

[ultradave]

That's what I like to hear !

[Seminole]

Somebody post a map!

[ultradave]

Yes, I'd be interested too. And since I'm the allies, I'd know from the Russians where they are.

[AWGreif]

Also the Allies could see it, with "Enemy hexes on".

[ultradave]

I realized that just after completing my turn. It's a server game so I'll have to wait until next time.

[scout1]

OK, guess Uncle Joe's boys are moving right along ......

[ultradave]

almost to Warsaw. Go, Joe Go!

[scout1]

though from a previous post of historical locations ..... doesn't seem far enough as badly as I've purged the East Front .... Me thinks this is a game play issue

Agreed it is not as advanced as one would expect given the state of the EF. Considering you have him stopped stone cold on the other fronts, are you going to send anything back, or let this play out as is to see if the Russians suddenly gallop for Berlin as the EF disintegrates?

[scout1]

I'm curious as to how effect the Reds are with the current situation .... They should roll over me ..... we'll see
