I still think you need to put your emphasis in the Leningrad front, cut it off, occupy it and I believe you will have turned the Russki flank.

(AAR) Manstein countered and sent a Tank Corps to the rear. The two ID's are now in his command. Alot of sub units were sent there also...As far as an offence on Leningrad it's way past due now, all I can do is draw them out and hit them hard...They have a 3 to 1 ratio in armor now...

Jon, when you say that the "Huns" are taking a beating, I assume you mean the Hungarians as the Germans seem to be doing fine in that sector?

Also: The recently converted/reclassified as PzG Wiking is the only SS divisional sized quality formation you have at your disposal, right? Do you have any special plans for the LSSAH, DR and TK when they come back in February/March, possibly including the partially converted SS Polizei division?

Soon I have to go to a flex defence, which is draw them out and hit them hard. Yes alot of elite SS units come back in the spring...Agian I'm hitting weak regions, keeping my head about me, and cut theres when they stick it out...

I can't read your strategy - why are you pushing to the East of Moscow?   Won't this just create a bulge?   I can't see the advantage unless it is to ease pressure elsewhere and for the attrition...
