final gomel.

I am moving tanks up with infantry. More retreats

I attempt large encirclement as Russians do not retreat a major river line.

My north tanks did not have enough mp's to close it heading south so I left open space. still should be large retreat ahead.

final south

Crimea neck seems to be defended. Still this advance continues unabated.

south open:

Russians retreat. not enough line hugging.

Russian recon air force arrives to join the fun

south final

I chip away one hex on road to Crimea

kiev final

most of Russian army escapes to fight another day

the blue tank corp in the middle, will miss about 7 turns of action from this point, very low fuel next turn. they would take at least 4 turns to get near rr if head north. I can get them close to south rr in 2 turns.


I end up going south with them, get them onto rr near Nikolaev, they head west, back into Hungary north around the swamp towards Minsk and lines towards Tula. By the time they get to Tula area the rr was in the forward spot. Plus they recharged nicely while on the rr. Plus they get to area where I had no tanks.

Smolensk final.

North Final

THE RIGHT HOOK

I temporarily sacrifice mech division ramming thru multiple ZOC"S. Will be cut off but it sort of seals in these Russian units guarding Starry Russia

air kia

I am doing better job in managing hqbu's and in changing German leaders.\

And in doing bomb raids on air bases. Getting fighters close enough to support.

far south final

Crimea neck, in the end, only lightly defended.

Kharkov final
Getting near . I expect another Russian retreat,

my blue tank corp units are heading south . they are very low in fuel.

my rr will go Vitesk to Smolensk to Byransk

another supply buildup. To follow on the right hook from prior turn.

and the right hook.

Now a secure pocket, Will move tanks thru this gap and attempt cut off of Leningrad with wide envelopment

Nice to see the AAR for this game. Can you post the OOB and Ground Losses so far please?

Cheers!

Definitely interested in the delta between liquidation of turn 1 pockets and now given the effort to avoid combat, capture and attrition by the Soviets.

Russians bombers are back in action.

open turn 9 north

in this hex air base attack, red army will lose 200 bombers!!

air kia since last turn

I locate a weak vulnerable spot in the Russian line. I exploit
