1st Winter German Attrition Loses

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

1st Winter German Attrition Loses

Post by mbatch729 »

Ok, since I can't search the forum and am too impatient to read thru every thread, I'll ask. What are the average attrition loses suffered by German players in the first winter? Trying to judge how badly I'm doing :-)

Apparently you need to stay above 16k rdy rifle squads total. Check the survival guide, it's a sticky in the strategy section

16k is about the "shatter" point according to BigA. It is not rare to fall below that in the first two weeks of blizzard, when the greatest losses happen. If you are trying to hold the line at this point, it will fail unless you really have done a number on your opponent during the fall.

As for losses, I suffered about a million in my AAR. 100k dead, 3k captured, the rest were disabled.
