Micheal T (Ger) vs Kamil (Sov)

[KamilS]

T12 Moscow (Soviet)


As more and more reinforcements arrive I am able to add some depth do my defences.

[KamilS]

T12 centre (Soviet)


All should be quiet here next turn as well.

All my predictions during current turn sound so optimistic, that I somehow fear that I am for big and unpleasant surprise.

[KamilS]

T12 south (Soviet)


If I got it right Michael should not have enough petrol to penetrate deep enough to create crippling pocket.

[Peltonx]

Moscow should hold IF MT can't make a real push turn 13.

[KamilS]

T13 north & Moscow (German)


I feel there is genuine chance of survival.

[KamilS]

T13 centre (German)


German penetration is really deep but spearhead is really weak now. My lines are secure until further notice.

[KamilS]

T13 south (German)


Situation got out of control here. I really can't afford to lose any more industry. This can be lethal blow.

Moreover panzer corps managed to capture bridge-head east of Rostov.

[KamilS]

T13 north (Soviet)


Upper Volga line looks strong for time being.

(Unfortunately I lost screen-shots so I can't properly show it.)

[KamilS]

T14 Moscow (Soviet)


Without panzers Michael won't be able to do much damage here.

[KamilS]

T13 centre (Soviet)


As long as city of Gorky is safe I am happy to have German panzers roam here instead of fighting them at Moscow's gates.

[KamilS]

T13 Stalingrad (Soviet)


I evacuated industry from souther part of the city and northern should withstand possible assault, but if my opponent decides to cross Volga and isolate defenders then I will be in big troubles.

[KamilS]

T13 south (Soviet)


Somehow I did it again. Valiant troops of southern front once again forced German units out of my side of Don river.

[KamilS]

T14 north & Moscow (German)


3 more turn of summer left. Moscow should be safe.

[KamilS]

T14 centre (German)


Michael goes for territory here.

[KamilS]

T14 south (German)


It seems, that my opponent wants to take Rostov at all costs. I think he will succeed.

[Peltonx]

Grats on holding Moscow. MT has posted a T16 north to south picture.

I fully expect MT to run like a girl during Blizzard. He has been a complete blow hard when other GHC players retreat during blizzard.

If he stands and fights vs your army I expect he will get his clock cleaned.

What is your best guess on your army size come May?

[Flaviusx]

I think Kamil is boned, myself. The losses in manpower and industry have been crippling for him. Nor is the Red Army itself in brilliant shape despite all the running. Kamil is going to be struggling to reach 6 million come May of 42.

Moscow could still fall, btw. MT can't hold it through winter, but that hardly matters, even a temporary occupation would be devastating at this point, especially if the factories are still there.

I see you guys boasting that Kamil will have less then 6 million by spring?

Pelton vs Hugh Hugh lost 2.5 million men

The manpower losses were close to the same as MT has now and Hugh had 7.2 million men on turn 50.

Sapper had taken more and LOST to M60.

This game is very very far from over, MT has no exp past March 42 he can easly screw up as sapper and Bomazz both did in there games.

[Flaviusx]

Kamil's replacement situation is terrible, Pelton. He's lost way too many manpower centers. I bet he's below 100k/turn past January. 7 million in may is a pipe dream. MT doesn't have to do anything brilliant during the blizzard, he has enormous room to fall back on, he's a hundred miles or more past the Don in the center and next to Stalingrad. He can easily fall back to Stalino down south from the upper caucuses. Up north he's at the Finnish stopline. This is as bad a situation in 1941 as I've seen short of a resignation.

This coming from the man that said Tarhunass would easly hold out for a minor German Victory?

Who was right about that? ME I said Tarhunnas would lose and he would have if not for 2by3 giving him a hot patch and as it was he got a DRAW.

Kamil has probably close to 5-5.25 million men now and will receive 100 divisions / equivilents (800,000 men) by turn 50. So he will easly have 6+ million by May.
