I then move my first guards army ( all tanks) west near Penza to help out with next weeks rescue attempt.

I also reattach hq to Stakva which is now located near Penza

Far east tank attack. When oh when will my 2nd tank Army convert to Guards tank army. Oh when oh Stalin[&o]

My tanks here are keeping Silly from moving some units to Penza.

Tank morale boost attack

2 german reserve activations is not enough to help

I ponder what to do with the single combat Germans units in the forward hexes. Should I leave them as is or retreat them back.

I attack. here is first lineup.

That this tank unit would retreat to the SS panzer hex made this avenue of attack unlikely to relieve the trapped units.

and the result

here is the air kia report mid turn.

My air force has been humilated

my top half information

bottom half information

I really wonder when some of these units will finally convert to guards.

Look at some of the large win loss records of non converted

still a very low experience group

here are my air commanders (who should all be retrained) and their win loss records

I attack the other forward German infantry unit and do this one further west for localized opportunity

I think about making a sacrificial deep tank thrust.

I could reach 2 more hexes and rout that german airbase just to the west.

I decide against

Last attack results in surprising loss.

I hope this does not cause major issue next turn.

Final Penza area.

Besides moving in my first Guards army I have shifted in west of Penza a few good guards infantry corp.

I assume all will be needed next turn.

Final Saratov

Last Moscow

you get more Guards % in Jan 1944. in 1943 your guards % is still decently low as per game limits. You have alot of guards units overall so looks about right for 1943.

I thought armor had no limits?

Please explain why 2nd Army tank has not converted its record is like 43 -20?

Stalin likes red troops.
