67 Final Stalingrad

2 more clear turns till MUD.

I contemplated sending in another sacrificial tank corp.
I could reach the hex just east of the Hungarian routed tank.
It would raise mp but ultimately be another lost corp.

Really I am in in very bad shape here.

He may even attempt a major surround. Seeing how things are going it might end up an easy job.

One good nuk!

Lower Volga.

Most likely I want all my tanks out of area. Maybe next turn they go for long march north

Moscow.

The hex I attacked day before around here is now too firmly held with 3 divisions.

Thus I make attempt to dislodge german bridgehead on east side of river. I had not attacked this hex for over 6 turns.

Used my guard corps which are in area after many soak off attacks.

Here was the good attack lineup oob

do the boogie!

Yes Victory, Needed as may allow the guard corp here to be reaction force after germans launch the snow /blizzard offensive.

which is a 30 tank/mech snowball.

I have no idea how to stop it.

He can go north west, north or northeast. Or 2 of the three. I am assuming he will not redeploy tank.

Mud 4 of 4. German tank mass awaits final orders.

So: how many turns will it take sillyflower to capture the last cities for 290 vp?

Vp confusion

sillyflower, being silly, thought vp was 260. [:'(]
"I got my 260 VPs and ended my turn, thinking that was it, but it just ended the turn like any other"

But when I push the little vp button it says he needs 290 vp? [:)]

Thus war continues. [:D]

I will post mud shots soon.

atm silly has requested a redo of the first snow turn as he was playing vc 260 . He had 260 vc with the first Nov 42 snow turn and stopped in the middle and executed. He thought game would end but it went to my turn.

I think they changed the vc levels to 290 in one of the betas. Which we both upgraded too. My whole mud was playing to the vc 290 which I saw in the vc button. I go with whatever the beta forces me to play.

Thus maybe game will continue. I ok them giving him a redo of the first snow Nov 42 turn. In case anyone is listening.

I , playing vc 290, set up an outer d perimeter with my best troops.
They build the best and they need rest and refit.

I hope to hold him lightly just above the middle city with the major river with main troops further north.

East of his mass I have a loose tank force to attempt ? atm. Mobile it shall be.



He can also go northwest. My line wont hold but if he gets stretched I will try and sever the tip.
