BrianG V Sillyflower (open for discussion)

[BrianG]

Well what happened here was I accidentally sent the 8-22 purple armor unit in too deep and he would not be able to get back thru zoc.

That forced me to start rescue operations.

[BrianG]

A big loss. Somehow this Russian general showed up as the lead when 2 other excellent ones were also in the battle.

[BrianG]

2nd rescue attempt also a failure

[BrianG]

result.

Maybe now have chance to pressure rr line heading west to east (in a few turns).

[BrianG]

unit trapped but I may have to chance to rescue next turn. We'll see what Silly does.

[BrianG]

I try to find german units which may be shifting south. Not successful atm.

I shift D down from north and try and get good CV all along the line with less when I have river.

This German tank Offensive is not over. Location of next action unknown. My spy In Berlin - useless.

[BrianG]

far north

[BrianG]

just below far north.

I hope my 2 VP cities here are strong enough to withstand major attack.

delusion!

[BrianG]

Silly has nicely offered me a truce if I want to put this game out of my misery.

He asserts that we are near stalemate.

It's all German propaganda lies!

Stalin wants to continue though: So that's that!

[bigbaba]

now that's the right Spirit.

next year in Berlin...or maybe Wladiwostok.

[topeverest]

Never SURRENDER! Shoot some of your generals..

Besides, Russian Morale bonus is kicking in. 44 will be a good year

This is my best understanding of national morale in v1.09.

Consider it a work in progress that I update as I learn more.

Thank-you for your AAR, very interesting reading.

You mentioned earlier that your major concern is the lack of units, as you have sufficient armaments. As you
advance west, do you regain and increase your manpower factories when you re-take cities? If yes wouldn't your
offensive greatly increase in strength going into 44 and 45, on your way to Berlin?

[BrianG]

44 and 45, on your way to Berlin?

atm my 45 objectives are to secure the Volga river up and down,
liberate Moscow and Leningrad, and reannex the Crimea.

Or launch massive tank attack to surround half the german army.[:)]

[BrianG]

112 German moves. Rout instead 0f trying to trap unit

[BrianG]

Russian PRODUCTION

[BrianG]

Major German probe attack

rr line is cut but german tanks are withdrawn.

[BrianG]

I had a number of airbases and hq's routed.

[BrianG]

Now my partisans show up.
