I think my first turn losses were remarkably light for what I accomplished and how many Soviet units were destroyed.

I flew quite a few airfield strikes and now several of my aircraft are tired and need to rearm and soak up some supply
before they will be as good as new. I managed to get an HQ unit to Konigsburg to encourage the aircraft near it and it
looks like a few more HQ units are needed for the other aircraft stacks in this area. I'll see what I can do about that next
turn. There are so many aircraft resting that I don't have any INT or CS missions posted. 99% of the fighters are still online
and I forgot to set them to INT and so they are still still set to AS.

Here's what the supply situation is in the north right now. As you can see I have moved my units into areas where my
supply lines haven't reached yet. I'm assuming my supply will eventually get into the areas I recently captured.

In the middle I tried to cut off all the Soviet units still undamaged so that I can destroy them in T2 but I've left a
lot of gaps and I expect them to make a heroic effort to escape from the trap.

In the south I made some progress but didn't get much of a blocking force in behind the Soviet units that remained after
all my attacks so I'm expecting a lot of them to be able to get away from my advance before I can trap them.

I took a look under the hood at my Stuka's and found to my horror that none of them had a particularly good anti-ship
value. In other games I've seen values as high as 120 or so. It's too late to change it now but I'm not going to make
much headway agaist the Soviet SCTF's. This might be a problem.

I found an Axis unit that has some equipment in it with a name that looks like it needs to be repaired.

For those of you who want to watch Ken's playback I've attached his moves file here below. My password is "test" without the quotes.

Inventory and Replacement Screen

Note that the Inventory and Replacement screen can be sorted by clicking on the column headings. I sometimes sort by units “Assigned” which puts the equipment you use the most at the top. For a scenario like FITE sorting on “Lost” tends to get depressing after a few million causalities!

Hey thanks a heap Steve. That comes in real handy when you want to know which items aren't building any longer or when you'd like to know what you've lost the most of. In the image I sorted the highest losses to the top and it's the infantry still. No surprise there. But sorting on the "Assigned" column is helpful too.
