GC41: Kamil (Ger) vs Dodo98 (Sov)

[KamilS]

Turn 9 End 2/4


Center


Great turn here.
I have changed direction to atack from north to east and managed not only to create decent pocket but I have advanced 9-10 hexes towards Moscow and Kaluga. Great success.

Souther part of AGC isn't able to achieve anything.

Turn 9 End 3/4


South

Encirclement near Kiev has been achieved, so I will be albe to push forward at slightly higher pace there.

Near Kharkov I have embarked on oportunitic raid towards Kursk. I don't have enough troops to achieve anything meaningfull there.


Donbad has been captured so I will be able to divert part of troops to secure Crimean crossings. Pushing into penisula feels unrealistic at this moment in time.

Turn 9 End 4/4


Summary

Thanks to good first turn I have managed to keep Soviet forces below 3M but as my troops advance steght required to create big pockets is gradually eroding.

Side comment - we play with open TB boxes and I think it helps Germans more than Soviets. (I might be wrong as I haven't played with open TB as Russian)

Turn 10 End 1/2


North


I can advance here only if my opponent gives ground. It took place near Narva and my raid east of lake Ilmen is designed to create similar situation.
Barbarossa is over here.

I have extended perimeter I advance towards Moscov. Crossing Oka river will come handy.
Supply situation isn't great but still good enough to advance.

In the souther part of AGC I can finally move forward because Soviet are retreating east.

Turn 10 End 2/2


South


One more panzer push north towards Kursk. My objective here is to gain some ground before winter and support future attack from Tula region towards Moscow.

Not many troops left in Donbas so capturing Rostov will be possible if Soviets are equally weak.
Infantry that was supporting push east was diverted south to help reach norther part of penisula before mud.
