need advice

Post by wktr8222 »

I play my first PBEM game, my oponent choose to run, its turn 10. Osinovets just fell, he is on the volkhov river, between Lake Ilmen and Kalinin nothing, from Kalinin south to Orel heavy defense ( some place around 30 CV ) with a lot of units,mostly around Moscow. Another defens line is from Mius river to about 16 hexes north of Stalino, Kharkov abandoned, no units up to Orel. Normal blizzard, no Soviet bonus. Loses: 130 000 vs 1 500 000. What would you do, go all for heavy defended Moscow ?

Plan on pincer of Moscow. Send all tanks available.

Also shoot column to Cherepovets and cut off all west to Leningrad.

South just plan at some point on attempt to take Rostov before blizzard

Where's you rail going in the south? How many hexes/MPs to Zaporozhye?

If you've flown you recons already, Moscow and Tula seem to have quite light screens in front of them. Find the weakspots and hit there.

FBD is 19 hexes to Dnepropetrovsk after turn ten moves. Tula screen is light, but Moscow is 3-4 hexes deep after some more recon.

I would advice going for industry. On turn 10 there is no chance Tula, Kharkov and Donbass are all evacuated.

Just checked my own AAR and it seems I was wrong. By turn 10 most of industry from Tula, Kharkov and Donbass was out. But you can see if your opponent managed industry evacuation well and if not you can try to destroy it. The 20+ arms in Tula or Donbass are well worth for a push and both are within Panzers radius.
