Turn 4 Loss by Phase:

17th Army, XXXXIX Mountain Corps (1st and 4th Mountain Div., 2nd Rum. Mtn. Div., 73rd Inf. Div. and the Bergmann Ost Mtn. Regt.), I have moved this into Ladozhaskaya to refit and get ready to push south in the Caucasus.

I also redistributed almost all the SU units around in various HQs in 1st Panzer Army and also 17th Armies XXXXIX Mtn. Corps. I'll need to reattach V Corps to 17th Army when I move the 17th Army HQ.

Notes:

Moved forward, no attacks, most units are still at 0 to 40 CPPs.

Transfered XXXXIV Corps to 17th Army, found a big Soviet stack and maybe cut it off.

Moved 17th Army HQ to Salsk and the XXXXIX Mtn Corps is still trying to refit. LI Corps (111th Inf. Div.) is west of Krasnodar.

Pushed V Corps forward against my better judgement, but time is ticking off.

LVII Pz Corps is still resting and refitting both units are at 45 and 46% CPP.

XXXX Pz Corps is still encircling Krasnodar.

Moved the Cav RM Corps into the Taman Peninsula.

NOTES:

Mostly set some Recon across the map, also setup an AS mission to whack any transport missions in the Soviet turn in/at Krasnodar and also setup a NP mission to disrupt the ports; Novorossiysk, Golendzhik and Tuapse.

Air Execution Summary:


Got some good Naval interdiction here. Note I selected the 100 KG and changed their load outs to use mines and got some good effects.

The second mission has 11 Bf 109G-2 versus 7 LaGG-3 and 2 Li-2, with no losses to the Germans again and the Soviets loosing 3 LaGG-3 and 2 Li-2 in A2A combat.
