Now it's time for Operation Bagration...in summer 1942... [X(]

RE: Romania and Hungary Surrender 1942
Serious question here -- I've been out of WITE for a while, so I don't have a good feel for this -- but after these catastrophic German losses, will they be able to do anything at all in the summer of 42?
RE: Romania and Hungary Surrender 1942
Nah, Model has spammed the areas behind the front 4-5 hexes deep with single units in each hex. Sort of like a zerg-defence. No real point in even trying when facing tactics like that. I managed to pocket I think it is 9 corps and 9 divisions in Romania, but thats about it for the summer I think. Recon indicates that he will be trying some form of Bagration operation though, so it should be interesting nevertheless.

the red army can not maintain such a defense all over the front. at least in the early phase of the war. so movement is important by attacking the flanks and force the enemy out of his fortifications.
hope you can stop bagration and not lose a entire army group.
maybe guderians favoured tactic (schlagen aus der hinterhand) by counter attacking exposed russian spearheads is a way to go now.

Here is a current view of what happened this turn. Since it is current, I have tried to mask my units, which also shows what the frontline looked like at the start of the turn.
The German attack is planned in blue.

And the outcome. If I can keep up this kill/loss-ratio, then I might be able to survive...

You didn't survive. You had now some fun and some nice counterstrokes, but you will never ever survive this game.
Sorry. But have fun now.

Thats around 430 000 men lost in the first two weeks of June for the soviets. Together with 700 tanks and 5000 guns its not too bad.

oh my...hopefully you will outpreform yourself in this game and have no energy left for ours, hortlund.
RE: Romania and Hungary Surrender 1942
With all those manpower centers in Soviet hands, he will soon have 9 million army... So he can afford few million losses here and there...

RE: Romania and Hungary Surrender 1942
Yeah yeah, soviets have more manpower, so what else is new [:)]
Meanwhile...
With the end of July approaching, we take out another 165 000 russians, bringing the month total up to 600 000 men

Meanwhile, we bag another 150 000 soviets
So, 750 000 men, about 1000 tanks and 9000 guns, not bad for a month

Good to see you playing as Russians, Mr P [;)]
Yup, GeneralfeldmarschallWalterModel is Mr P too. The AAR reads verbatim like Mr P's. To be honest Mr P should have offered the German Player the same settings Mr P always advocates for, instead Mr P took the +1 Soviet attack and running with it. The hypocrisy goes so deep with that one.
Not that it would have mattered this game is all but over.
LOL. I read from the end of the AAR then came to this. Before I read I it I thought the same thing solely by noting the (good, but signature) game play. LMAO.
I'm still not convinced this isn't. The play of the Soviet isnt of a "novice" nature on the Soviet side at all, far from it. I still stand by what I wrote.
