I will post for 58, one of the great things about this game is there are so many numbers to look at 8)

On another thread Mr B said I should man the Dnepr line. I think that's to the right somewher so I hope to get there after eating some more of his tasty little offerings.

Keep on driving to the right SF, we have some nice cozy camps ready for you.....

Another turn, another pocket.

No corp units lost in so not a big deal.

Man-up Mr B intead of leaving your corps 100 miles away[:-]

put your decent troops on the line if you have any

B said above somewhere that he can't afford to lose any more units.

It would be nice if the Commie running dog barked the truth. What is true is that I can't afford not to kill units (ie APs) if I am to keep his army down to size.

Tx

The big one and his sister when she was alive used to dig trenches about 9 feet long x3 feet deep (3m x 1m) in 1 hour looking for small burrowing mammals like Baelfiin. They left 1 part of a park looking like a WW1 trench system but luckily they were never caught.............

zoomed out picture of the fighting area, sillyflower has been staggering around like a drunken whore taking bites out of my lines in all directions.
He is being kept under control and I have the situation well in hand, however. All of you will note his nasty trick of creating a minipocket and using rivers to keep me from crushing him.

Do drunken whores bite? I bow to your and Flavius' obvious expertise on the subject[&o]. Does it cost more?

It is true, however, that I have no more sense of direction than my avatar.

I call it AP/ant farming whilst getting other parts of my attack force back up to full strength

You may laugh at my seemingly random wanderings but Pacman continues to deliver

Trying to keep the size of the Commie horde down

Image

I think B is down 500K from his strength at end of blizzard and I'm about 250K up so I'm happy. Our agreed victory conditions are the Russians hve to take Berlin before historical date to win, G to keep it for longer to win so I'm playing the long game.

Happy to be keeping his arty numbers down (were 80K+)- probably helped by the fact that his arms production is 10% below historical levels.

However I, like others, have learned not to underestimate Mr B so my tactics are really to buy me valuable time.
