and my last attack

Final Moscow.
40km squeeze.

Squeeze it!

Final Kharkov.

one more blizzard turn to go.

Variable weather has led to confusing weather pattern.

Personnaly, as Axis, I would give up Kharkov and fight for Moscow. It can be held.

Extended salients are a Germans nightmare during the winter. Hold them at your own pearl.

Last Blizzard

German countermoves.

4 new Guards Armies.

This is way early for me and very pleasant. [:)]

4 sided attack south of Moscow.

Germans supply is low all along the front.

My southern pincer commences action 12 hours prior to the northern pincer.

a hole develops in the southern German flank.

For some unknown reason Stalin got distracted and asked about Kursk area.

We quickly fill him in.

The 9th Guards Cav Corp plunges deep behind the German lines. Unmolested.

They stop . They think: 1. are they even allowed to think 2. Which way to go?

The northern Offensive commences in 1/2 hour. Tic toc what to do.


WHAT TO DO?


What would you do?

Oh my

Since 9th Gds Cav cannot establish a further ZOC to the north, and any retreating unit from a northern attack will retain it's ZOC, it seems highly unlikely you can close this. The only possibility I see is displace the 6=9 divisions without use of the guards cav division with movement 18. If that division could move into that hex with a win plus one more hex south, you could close the pocket then. With blizzard over next turn, it pains me to say your best bet is not to press your luck, unless you consider a guards cav corps dispensable.

Good in detail AAR as always [&o]
Interesting you prefer the view without shading enemy hexagons?

Too bad it wasn't possible to achieve the same result at Moscow two turns earliers...

So what I do is then cut of Kharkov!.

Nice

And prior battle orders must be executed first before my runner, with movement order, reaches the Breakthru Cav Corp

Please note more German dead bombers

and another battle

So the answer to 'what should you do' is.

you divide up the Cav Corp and separate to cause German retreats to open lane to hopefully close the pocket.
Some air units routed, maybe an hq

AND THEN the northern pincer weekly offensive begins

I then I get the

OMG I win a hasty attack in February!!
