Riga Gambit

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

And in general, the German divisions that you want to use as heavy hitters will all benefit from the maximum directly assigned 3-SUs. Especially in the first 10 turns. This is the German competitive advantage over Soviets. Use it.

+1

Good thought, I keep on forgetting to do that.

Has the port repair issue been fixed? I have not been able to figue out how much damage you need to do to make sure a port remains "inoperable" at the start of your next turn.

Like I said in my previous post, it should be 4% damaged or more, as the port repairs 3%.

I know it is supposed to be 3%, but I thought there was a bug that allowed some ports to repair faster.

I just executed the Riga gambit in my first campaign game againt the AI on challenging latest patch ofc. It was enough to send 20 bombers to inflict 8% damage on the port blocking supplies to Riga. Riga is taken by XXXXI Panzer corps on turn one after having their way paved by infantry and the motorized div through a hasty attack east of the city using the two panzer divisions with pioneers attached to reduce the fortification level. After taking Riga I could send two IDs and two security units to Riga.
