Perpetual Desolation - HLYA (German) vs a Soviet Player

[HardLuckYetAgain]

Turn 7

For me turn 7 is always the start of the game. Everything before turn 7 is just jockying for position. My position is set and execution is everything now.

Beginning of turn Pockets in the North all hold

Turn 7

Beginning of turn Pockets in the South all hold. Please realize that everything from the North to the South in these pictures is basically desert. If something does happen then I am supper happy since I am close to the soviets (without PZ or Moto) but still happy just the same. You will see staying close and making Germans take everything by force has its drawbacks even when PZ and Moto is not in the area.

Anyway here is the South picture beginning of the turn. You can see the Soviets ran to the Crimea and right in line with my plans. Nothing my "MAIN MAN" can't handle . Now who is the "MAN"???? ;-P

Turn 7

AS and Recon North. (AS I messed up and only had the small 4 plane sortie, used to work back in the day but it didn't this turn and I quickly reverted to a minimum of a full 40 plane sortie instead). Recon I put fighters with to shot down Soviet intercepters (I hope he is flying)

Turn 7

8 units have been surrounded this turn, with many losses to go with that. At least I am not having to chase these units all over the map in the south, they are here for the beating . win-win

You can see many units resting behind the line.

Turn 7

18th Army continues the grind of Soviet units on the line. Keep hitting them and eventually they crumble in the early game of 41. Thus we continue to do so.

The Screenshot of the VL area before the VL offense kicks off. Realize this is just "ALL" infantry.

Cleaner view of last picture (Notice the PZ Div in the picture, Had to bring him in since I was short a unit for the city, LOL)

Turn 7

2 more units surrounded, without the use of PZ or Moto. I shouldn't have done this but two big size infantry divisions were worth using Rgmts on the front line. I will take the chance but know it "may" not end pretty next turn. BUT two big fat infantry divisions are worth it

There are oasis in the desert!

Forward March - at infantry speed towards Kiev. Going well but getting further from supply all the time.
