Isolating Leningrad

Post by actrade »

I'm getting ready to decide if I'm going to go for Leningrad or not. I know there have been bugs regarding the isolation of Leningrad with regard to which port towns need to be taken, but I can't remember off the top of my head what is needed to isolate. It's pre-frozen Lake Ladoga fyi. Thanks in advance.

To isolate Leningrad, you can take the one in the north east (Osinoved or something like that).

You do not have to take Oranienboom & Tallin (in the Gulf of Finland) AFAIK.

Ok thanks. I know there were some issues with this, but wasn't sure if they'd been resolved.

There may still be an issue when Kronstadt/Oranienbaum/Leningrad are not taken that allowed units to rout out of the pocket, but I can't remember now if we were able to deal with it or not. Taking or cutting off Osinovets will isolate the area, but the bug was something odd with Kronstadt that was preventing isolation during the German turn.
