Status: offline 		I played part of Road to Kiev tonight and failed to encircle and cut-off the frontline Soviet units. I made a mad dash for Kiev instead and made it as far as Zhitomir in 2 turns. Amazingly during turn 3, the entire front line Soviet army (except for static units) retreated and formed a new consolidated line in front of Kiev and all the way South. This turned the game into an attrition battle I was not going to win. To add insult to injury, a few Soviet units cut off my lead Panzer divisions at Zhitomir. Pretty good showing by the AI on "normal" setting. A threw up the white flag after 3 turns. Cutting off the Soviets early is critical. Lesson learned...
