North Moscow

attack of opportunity and to force reinforcement of area by Germans. or exploit.
I expect German reinforcements though.

[BrianG]

I search and find perimeter defense with chance of success. Forts are below 1%.

Here is my tank force attack lineup

[BrianG]

Battle results. Very heavy tank losses. I will not zoc the defeated units thus better repair.

also notice Silly moved his Rumanian airforce back to Stalingrad proper.

[BrianG]

I keep separation, Really I cannot afford major mistake here.

I don't have any idea where his ss tanks are. I think here based on turns since last seen.

Germans most likely used rr. Thus a few turns to complete movement of maybe 12 assorted armor divisions. and his top infantry army

Its a theory. I do see 2 new airbases in the area

[BrianG]

I stay in fort hexes north of Moscow.

Otherwise I am hoarding strength.

I'm almost at 6 million[;)]

[BrianG]

pressure must have moved south. I move Guard tanks off front line. They can move by rail next turn.

I've already redeployed a tank army back way south and 34th infantry to north Moscow.

[BrianG]

Now that is large German recon.

same d17 airframe from before.

Somethings up.

[BrianG]

I think no Russians ground attacks this turn.

I keep away. This is final map.

I see a very large number of German units on north south rr.

New. I think so. Danger! Danger!

I will continue to reinforce area. I will not venture forward to meet this onslaught.

It could be a trap.

[BrianG]

Final Middle

I might try and attack over river just east of Moscow if german unit not reinforced.

Guard tanks are moved here in case attack proceeds.

[BrianG]

no pictures

no action. I used aircorp to bomb Germans hexes. No ground attacks.

Next turn is Sept 1943. I continue to build up . Now at 6 million.

Tanks are plentiful. I will have hard time filling out infantry units.

I may have to go mobile.


My tank units are still not converting to Guards. Maybe September.

I still see heavy new concentration of German units down south on that RR line. I will stay away for now.

[M60A3TTS]

If you need more manpower, any BAKs can be disbanded to provide some. Also with the arrival of RR repair corps, you might be able to do with fewer construction brigades.

[EwaldvonKleist]

Tanks are plentiful. I will have hard time filling out infantry units.

I may have to go mobile.

Probably the first time Soviets will use quality instead of quantity to push the Germans back

[BrianG]

no german attack. Again Tank corps with good win loss did not convert to Guards.

Than this ditty bit of news arrived

[BrianG]

One would think that a large battle such as this would result in someone getting killed.

[BrianG]

here is the victorious attack to win the hex

[BrianG]

My exploit finds the German 4th Army hq and Vii Corp hq.

They will rout.

[BrianG]

My deepest probe attack so far. I would like to get position with zoc over east west german rr.

[BrianG]

Final East. I get a zoc on rr which heads southeast. Now his units only get supply from the southern branch.

[BrianG]

Final Moscow.

Really I will need to attack flanks and surround Moscow in order to retake.

Maybe a year from now.[&:]

[BrianG]

Heavy Russian attack.

Can someone please explain the lack of death.

North Moscow. No picture bad camera.
