Turn 8

Lower Dnep

Germans massed on River. Threatening a crossing and I am like out of units to fill the gap Will have to pull from the Southern forces to at least delay I think.

Turn 8

Gateway to the Crimea

I defense stacked the Soviets but Germans/Rumanians got across If it wasn't for the threat to the North of this I would attack that Rumanian Armor in the swamp. But the Crisis to the North may be the bigger threat. Let me think on this.

***Yes, I know he is a horrid leader. At this point I am not changing leaders and saving my points. What is the max AP you can have. I will look ip up if no one knows. Thank you in advance***

Turn 8

Ground Losses

Pretty much grinding caused these with 3 surrendered CaV divisions. I believe it is just getting started so doesnt look fun from here on out.

Turn 8

Air Losses

Glad the size of the squadrons went down last turn. Gave me a few aircraft in the pool, lol

Turn 8

OOB

I will be finishing up the turn on Laits game before doing this turn here. Nothing like being a punching bag for sure

You can amass 9999 AP, so no virtual limit

7 down and 3 to go...

***This division was in hex and not fatigued or anything. DAMN*** ****just a weeeee bit under-stength

Militia division had reduced TOE compared to regular RD.

Ya, you are correct, compared to regular divisions they are "a weeeee bit under-strength"

You've given up alot of ground, but your losses aren't too bad, and the Red Army strength is good for this phase....looks like you are making a concerted effort to run for better terrain! At some point in the South you have to turn and fight though, I guess better that it's at the end of the Axis supply line than further forward

Ya, was able to refit and get morale and experience. I believe that is a key. I checked and I am pretty much where others are plus almost 1 million more soldiers. Give or take a turn or 2 at the most. Just have to figure out that magic place. I also don't like City-Forts at the beginning of the game. That drains a great many units away from where they are needed in my opinion. But maybe I am wrong.

I am fighting now on the lower Dnepr & trying to scrounge some units for the defense. The key on river defense, as I am sure many already know, is to have a 2nd line right behind the river line.

Turn 8

Ground Phase

This units got some "MASSIVE" drugs during the refit phase! LOL. Nice when you have 100 CPP. Plus he isn't even close to my best Tank Division.

279 T-26's I am sure will be vaporized in a heartbeat too.

Turn 8

Ground Phase

At least it is pretty to look at, for the time being. One attack from a German and the unit will run for the Urals.

Turn 8

Ground Phase

Fuel levels are in the RED in front of Kursk and 3rd PZ is at 4 strength and 6th PZ is at a 6th Strength. The Germans pushing the PZ's to the limit here. Might use the other CAV to help open the pocket but surely will lose both then. Which is ok.

Turn 8

Ground Phase

It is ok because I had more CAV as re-enforcement's from Reserves, lol
