Nice deep attack with Cav.

[BrianG]

[BrianG]

Kharkov final

room to give.

[BrianG]

kaluga final

[BrianG]

Moscow final. He is attacking north Moscow and south of moscow

[BrianG]

The North.

I will retreat my purple army south as the Fins get to the main line.

[BrianG]

27 south


heavy German tank losses in win.


We do not want to fight in blizzard. so says the tank manual.

[BrianG]

fin promotion choices

don't do it.

a few corp get disbanded/withdrawn and frees up good leaders

[BrianG]

south area

stalino has not been hooked up to rr connection.

We wonder why?

Also , due to the shellacking Bitburg took, he seems to be thin in many areas and has 3 groupings of cav corp.

north and south of Moscow, and northeast of Rostov

[BrianG]

Russians now have to fight to push forward. I think I can hold this area and keep Rostov open

[BrianG]

Kharkov area final

3 more turns of retreating gets you this. Not much chasing my units. Russian line thin.

[BrianG]

tula final.

I have no set line. Thus still giving room

[BrianG]

North Moscow final

Russian cav attacks have forced a corridor.

I will need to plug hole with stronger units while keeping my front line just west of moscow

[BrianG]

far north. The fins finally reach the front lines.

Looks like a pretty easy blizzard season so far...figured with the losses you inflicted the soviets wouldn't be capable of much. The issue is the experience gain of only 1 per week without massive combat losses means it takes 3 months for new soviet forces to be somewhat combat capable. Will be a good new fix in the current new beta patch once its stable and the bugs worked out.

For now tho you get an easy chill winter....should set you up nicely for a really good 1942 spring/summer offensive.

Also is very telling of what the Germans can do.....you admit making some mistakes esp with the finnish yet are doing extremely well.....your situation in Moscow area would be much easier with that additional army placed more to the south if the finns had started moving earlier.

Also is very telling of what the Germans can do..

Very telling of what the Germans can do IF the Soviets make a big mistake. That said, it doesn't take away some very good moves by BrianG to exploit that mistake

[BrianG]

Russian north.

only a few attacks

heavy cav stack spotted

[BrianG]

and north Moscow final. Russians getting ready.

I am trying to hold tight. The impassable lake side is actually helpful

[BrianG]
