Turn 4 Beginning of German Turn

Soviet bombing of Proskurov multiple times. Net result to rail below, 53 aircraft were lost by the Soviets. Just a note that I finally convert that hex this turn to my rail network.

Turn 4 beginning of German turn

Soviet naval bombing to keep supplies from Riga. Riga has not been on my radar but I may throw up a couple of Air Superiority missions to get some free kills. The reason is I already have rail to Riga but might be nice to get that extra supply from the sea onto the network now. Soviets lost 15 aircraft keeping this shut this turn. Maybe lets inflict some more with an AS there (evil grin)

Air losses

Soviets continue self inflicting Pilot losses to themselves it seems.

Not many Soviets are to be seen. QUIET... TOO QUIET...

Turn 4 Beginning of German turn

Center Gomel before Air phase

Soviets staying real close with "hugging" Germans. This could be very dangerous. Gotta recon well to see whole picture for sure. I do have 4 PZ divisions that have been resting awhile now all gassed up Not to mention supply is getting closer.

North

My Defense value greater than your defense value! All kidding aside these are the only units I see before recon. I am sure he is holding the area with strength. Will see what recon says.

South FBD full steam ahead

After my mishap of letting a Soviet Cav break my extra link to Minsk from Brest I put the FBD on train for the South. It arrives this turn to start converting rail

It was supposed to do this anyway, but the mishap speed up the process.

Air Phase completed, Results are the following;

Hopefully have the Riga Gulf open. Also have a full squadron on AS now in the region. Hope to catch some Red Stars flying to the gulf now

Turn 4

Air Phase Recon Center (Real time update)

Did not find much here but I am sure 821Bobo has units directly to the East. Would fit his pattern of defense. But I also didn't heavily recon the area because I am just taking care of the nice gifts the Red Star nation left for us.

Turn 4

Air Phase Recon South (Real time update)

This is interesting and will go more into detail in the next post. But here are the Recon points. I did recon pretty heavy in this area.

[DeletedUser1769703214]

Turn 4

Air Phase Recon South (Real time update)

You will notice there are 3 Airborne brigades in the backfield in orange. These are pretty easily retreated and/or routed. Brigades and regiments usually retreat when hit by divisions from my experience. Plus it is early game and these brigades will probably route.

Turn 4

Air Phase Recon South (Real time update)

Circled in Blue you have tank divisions on the front line. From my Soviet game I know almost all of my Tank division are under 60% TOE. Thus there is a good chance so are these. Or at least one of the two is low TOE.

[DeletedUser1769703214]

Turn 4

Air Phase Recon South (Real time update)

Circled in Green you have more Armor and Mech, more than likely low TOE again.
