Funny thing is Dnepropetrovsk, Zaporozhye and Leningrad all evacuated - and all in Soviet hands. Instead it was the cities behind them that were not evacuated and are now in Axis hands! [:D]

Empty cities in range of German units is a sin.

T008 Axis Odessa
Odessa remains a pain in the rear Soviet fortress. And as we are screening it with Rumanian combat troops the Soviets have more opportunities for successful counterattacks. But this turn they leave the city itself ungarrisoned and an opportunity. Some units have just enough movement points to walk in to the city if we can rout a cavalry unit to its south west. But unsually after the attack goes in the Soviet cavalry instead of routing retreats in good order into Odessa. The Plan B attack of Odessa also fails. The Rumanian glory of a sneak attack to capture the port and leave the entire force in the area isolated is not to be.

The pocket on the Gulf of Riga is broken in to - but German 3rd Motorised Division retreats eastwards instead? So we attack it another ten times in its new place on the front lines.

The spam attacks go away with the next version, which the Soviets have not upgraded at this point So they get spam ground attacks, but suffer from nerfed flak as compared to the upgrade.
This is the last hurrah for Leningrad as next turn the Germans begin to strangle Roko's forces.
The Finns advance one hex forward at a time. This front is expensive in terms of Manpower, but soon .. very soon there will be a breakout.

I have wondered what are the Soviet advantages to this? The result is the same - only question is they get to the Svir later or earlier. The Soviet units in Karelia could be used elsewhere?

Soviet South Commander
run, abandon Kiev etc, try to cut off some spearheads...my major retreat with green front will move eastwards enough (like, Kharkov east!), so will yellow and purple...get a holding front ahead of his tanks, otherwise he will just keep turning my flank again and again, and create pockets we cannot afford...There is nothing between Kiev and Kharkov worth losing troops for. Retreat has little negative consequence, not doing so, and ending in pockets, does.
Furthermore, moving troops eastwards might with time hopefully allow getting ahead on his spearhead, instead of being 200 miles westwards of them...Once the major river line breached, it serves no further purpose...We gain nothing by a west-east frontline. We need to keep it North-south as much as possible, i.e. the front as short as possible. And please, we must stop getting pocketed.
Soviet Supreme Commander
We have no more reinforcement to give South, or North.
I dont particularly agree with abandoning more ground though, personally.

We should do our best to consolidate a position where we can hold the Caucasus and the Volga cities.
