I read the rules concerning CPP. It's a major change.

The good thing about effective CPP play is its also a really useful proxy measure for a lot else. In general keeping your CPP up keeps your fatigue low. It tends to reflect good use of reserves and balancing sustaining an offensive against building up suitable supply stocks

Thanks, not ready for an HvH right now, still learning the new rules versus AI.

Air admin looks hard at the moment

@STEF78, I have created two documents which may be of some assistance to you located in the War Room on both manually running the first turn Axis Air and a mini tutorial (not 100% complete).

No document but see my post 13 for Rail Repair, if needed: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=5111320

Lastly, not really a real tutorial or anything and I am defiantly not of the caliber of HYLA or Tyrone but a mini AAR of Operation Typhon may bee of some help (or not): https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=5113665

Well, taking Odessa proved to be a hard task
I used all the advices I get:
- naval patrol
- sapper and artillery support

4 attemps without success.

After the fall of Leningrad, I sent Model and it worked!

Maybe it's just luck when I see the CVs before modifications

Wow, Odessa after Leningrad [X(], you wasn't using any pioneers? They help against fortifications.

The first 2 I didn't.

The third was with pioneers and naval patrol. I got 1.7/1, then I changed the leader and added artillery
