Update
I received an email this morning that the game will go on. I stand corrected on the game being over and Gunnulf will be continuing. Once I receive the turn I will update accordingly.

I did this against M60 many years ago. Full disclosure M60 won the GC in 1945 by capturing my entire SS Panzer Armee and sending them to Siberia[;)]

You did what? Sending everything to Leningrad from North and Center?
Ya, M60 is a great player!

North
Leningrad stays cut off. Color shown is fuel levels for my units. The units that cut off Leningrad are low on fuel but to be expected with all the horrid terrain. I will try and take these off the line and closer to the nearest Depot, Pskov area. I plan on bringing up the Infantry as quickly as I can to do this.

Units watching the front in Regiments. 4th Army is heading North East as quickly as possible. FBD is heading North East as fast as possible after linking the Brest-Minsk-Vilnius Railroad. Currently FBD is under the Army Group Center HQ

Turn 5
LVI Corps from 4th Panzer redeployed to Vitsbeck area close to depot. Fuel levels shown by color on them. (18th PZ was traded in from Center after refitting here for two turns. 18th PZ is close to full TOE. I regularly pull off a PZ division now for Refit along with a Moto Division and rotate the cycle to keep some fresh)

Watch in Belorussia
Set up Regiments in defense to use horse drawn supply to save on trucks. Is it worth it? Don't know yet but figured it would be fun to try it out

South
Lots of attacks & all pockets hold. I really liked Gunnulfs defense in the North from turn 4. [&o] Going to have to use something like that in the future I think. You pretty much have to deal with it as a German or bypass and run forward. Which you really don't want to do because you want the dual track. With all those heavy pipe hitters I decide to just deal with for the dual track. That defense has to hold this turn to hold up future progress though to make it worth it.

Thanks for the AAR. At your leisure can we get a zoomed out view of the whole front from time to time.
