Here's the Soviet production figures as of turn 19:

Taking a 4 day vacation and figured I post what I picked up playing this game vs Larry.

1. This is my 5th game and was able to get the other 4 to quit before snow fell. Thats why I never really paid any attention to partisans [:D] I am playing a 6th game also and I am garrisonning my town [:@]
2. Never quit, grats on sticking it out Larry [&o]
3. Ketza was right my openning in the north could have been better.
4. I probably should have pushed east a little more with my mech units and killed off another few 100k of reds.

Other then that I have accomplished all my goals for 1941. I am at the lines I wanted to be at in October, plus Moscow and 3,500,000 kills. Took out more industry then I hoped for.

This will be my first winter. I am digging in allong a line that is dotted with allot of towns and citys, plus what MT troops in the clear ones. I am using a winter formation I came up with, which is new or at least I have seen nothing posted on it.

I will try and figure out how to post a screen shot and explain it IF it works [8|]

Double post sorry.

Larry,

Thank you for this AAR. I know they are a lot of work.

Are your partisan numbers increasing significantly? I notice that many are actual partisan batallions, rather than cadres, so I would think that partisan numbers are still growing.

Thanks

Bill

You're welcome. Keep those good questions coming. This is your forum too.

According to this excerpt from the logistics log I have some 140+ partisans and the number is growing everytime Pelton gets more territory from me. I've seen evidence that they are active too.

So is Pelton is basically digging in early. Is doesn't look as though the lines have moved much for some time now. I would expect a wall of level 4 forts and now with 1.04 the forts actually mitigate some blizzard attrition.

I think he posted he had basically reached his objectives for now and really could not go further or he would be too far beyond his rail heads. My guess is he is busy regrouping, trying to get his logistics fixed and resting up some key troops. I think he will come out swinging after mud is over and attempt to hurt the Russians as much as possible in order to take the sting out of any Russian winter offensive. 

[kevini1000]

The Russian army looks very big. Not sure what the quality might be and equipment make up. It will be interesting to see what happens in Blizzard. The bad thing is you almost can't the German army perhaps that went home for the winter. I'd like to see a screen shot after air recon and Russian movement if possible to see the German army and fort levels if possible.

What's the state of your industry?
Did you manage to evacuate some factories?

It's all in Russia. See image below for the current Production ability of the Soviet union. EDIT: This is the image for the KLilly game sorry for the cross post. Ignore the image below for the Pelton game.

yes. Um......I don't remember any particulars about which ones or how many but I have a vague recollection of evacuating something to somewhere at one point.
