There might be an option to cut off a lot of Russian Formations North of Smolensk and South of Velikie Luki
this is most likely the last Option to get to Moskau in 1941, if we get rid of all these Formations and Push up to Kalinin we could attack Moskau from the west.

This may also be an Option , to cut off forces between Kiev and the Gomel

Where are you doing your rail repair? If you are not doing the rail repair right, that is probably related to you having bad supply. You seem to have some depots near the front which are not getting any supply, for example at Polotsk, which means the rails are not repaired up to those depots.

Turn 7 Center
As you can see we are still out of supply and did not take Smolensk.
That however is no big Problem, we will shift our three Panzer Groups to the North , using the Ports and Build up rail System there to supply us and thus take Talin, Pskov and Leningrad , netting us with bonus 62 VP, meaning while Army Group south will take Odessa and sweastpol , another 40-52 VP , with our current 419 VP that should be enough to not get insta Defeat in Jan 1942.
Seeing that my Schwerpunkt until now was in Center and that i basically stood still for three turns around riga i hope that my Opponent brought up all his reserves around Smolensk and Kiev. If thats the Case, then the Drive on Leningrad should come as a surprise and there should be little to oppose us.
At the same time we will use the supply issue to set up our winter Camp for Army Group Center, by October our Railroads should be Green Everywhere and we should hav next to no Problems.
I basically hopeing to avoid the Insta Defeat by a margin of 1-5 Points and then win the Game in 1942 with Summer Offensive against Moskau from the North and South. I also Hope that the Soviet will wear himself down in the Winter Offensive against our Fortifided lines. I do hav the Concern that taking Leningrad and Sewastopol might not be possible or force very heavy Casulties on us (200-400k).

Oh and the Kursk Pocket did not happend because the Soviet Player withdrew everything, that said, Veli Luki still looks like it could be done if we can get the Supplys up to the Units for that attack

Yeah, you seem to not be doing your rail repair right, you seem to only be getting the auto rail repair, but you should have a lot more. Do you know how to use your FBDs? You need to move your FBDs onto unrepaired rail and then hit the "RRC" button on the FBD unit counter and then it should repair those rails next turn. You should be able to repair up to 4-8 or so rails per turn with each FBD like that.
You should learn/practice how to use the FBDs in single player and use them to repair up to cities such as Minsk that have railyards and up to your depots, unless you and the other player are finding the learning experience valuable, restart the game I think, this game looks too messed up because of not having the rail repaired.

Frankly I'm surprised you're doing as well as you are in spite of not having a railhead past the initial ones in Germany.

You can operate like this for a time - until your trucks get obliterated.
