My First AAR - Russia 41

[tm1]

Depot Setup Centre / South

Bad that's all I can say.

[tm1]

Depot Setup South

The depot setup across the front will cost me I just could not get my rails there quick enough.

[tm1]

Supply Turn 24

Well I am trying this super depot thing all 4 FBDs are on Armee HQ's and there pretty well supplied but I don't see any flow effect as Korps and Divs struggle.

[tm1]

Ob Turn 24

With the withdrawal of 6 Divs ( anywhere up to 70,00 men ) in the last three weeks things are looking grim on the Central front.

[tm1]

losses Turn 24

Some good attacks that pushed a number of Russian units back from the line but not nearly enough.

[tm1]

AGN Turn 24

The Russians launched one attack only which was thrown back by General Manstein's troops.

I did some attacking myself just push the enemy away from the so troops might get some respite from front line fatigue.

[tm1]

AGC Turn 24

Did the same here pushed a few weak Red Army units back.

Still no word when 11th Korp will get here, rail delays.

[tm1]

AGS Turn 24

More attacks to throw the AI off and we crossed the straits JUST !!

I'm hoping this will cause the AI to pull troops away from Mariupol and the river cities.

[tm1]

Supply Turn 25

Not looking good for the first week of Dec.

[tm1]

OB Turn 25

Good News for The Red Army bad news for The Ostheer

Intel reports 500,000 Far East troops have arrived.

So it begins

[tm1]

AGN Turn 25

Major Attacks from within the Leningrad defences and troops on the river side.

The front line holds.

[tm1]

AGC Turn 25

Large scale attacks across the central front but apart from a few regiments being pushed back the line is still solid so far which is a surprise as I thought they would have steam rolled through my Regts units.

Early days of course the blizzards have not yet hit.

[tm1]

AGS Turn 25

Well a different story here 17th Armee and 3rd Rom Army were hit hard and pushed back in a number of places, it seems I will have to commit some armour to hold the line there didn't want to, this to could be a mistake we shall see.

AGS Soviet Turn 25

Screen shot of the Russian attacks

[tm1]

OB Start Turn 26

[tm1]

losses Soviets turn 25

4 million casualties is not slowing them down.

[tm1]

AGN Turn 26

The Front line still holding in the north,there was some attacks but they were held.

Blizzards have hit across the North and Centre.

[tm1]

AGC Turn 26

Things are stable here as well but only just I did some attacks and the AI returned fire on its turn as well.

11th Korps has finally started to arrive might be to little late, we shall see.

[tm1]

AGS Turn 26

I had to put more Panzers into the line down here there are just to many Russian units to hold back.

One positive started getting more troops across the straits, lets see how the enemy reacts to that.

[tm1]

OB Turn 27

My Army is melting while the enemy grows stronger
