Status: offline 		I almost forgot to grab a shot of the front lines before I move stuff. Consequently, I already have started moving all the Soviet stuff by
Lake Ladoga northeast of Leningrad but other than that nothing else has moved yet. This is the T38 front lines:

EDIT: T38 is 5Mar1942

EDIT: I'm continuing to push West but upon hitting much higher Axis CV's I'm thinking of reverting to defensive mode
and start digging forts and fall-back lines a little to the east. Just in case KLilly launches a spring offensive of his
own.

I've been using these guys to push to the west but it's so late in the season now, we're running into stronger and stronger Axis units and so I'm thinking of using the weaker parts of the Army to hold the front lines, just dig in, and have the cream of the divisions in the second or back-up, line ready to counter-attack any Axis penetration he might attempt.

EDIT: I found the 8th Airborne Corps still belonging to Stavka.....I'm going to have to assign it to the Bryansk Front pretty quick now.

Status: offline 		This shot of the area around Gomel, west of Orel and Kursk, reveals that I have some mixed-front things going on and I need to correct that as soon as I can safely.

EDIT: That neon-blue division is sitting on the rails ready to move to the next spot that needs buffing up. I don't remember the numerical
digits of that division. Lemme look that up and get back to you.

EDIT 2: That's the 10th Army from the West Front. I'm thinking maybe I should rail this bad boy ( the division) to the area where the
West Front is fighting. They could dig back-up lines or something useful.

Status: offline 		Here's the area to the west of Kharkov. It's a remarkable array of Fronts from north to south. No two adacent Armies have the same front. It's a mess. I'm glad I did this pictuire......now I know I have a command issue that needs to be looked into. I may have to save up some AP's to fix this mess.

What kinds of penalties could effect the game? Probably combat. Maybe that's why I should spend somje time unmixing these divisions and fronts.

Status: offline 		Listing the units ( excepting the Partisans ) by %TOE the scroll thumb goes down to about 1/3 the travel of the scroll bar so I'm estimating that I have about a third of my units in refit and the rest are in reserve or rdy.

Status: offline 		I went through the Commanders Report to move all the U-2VS 's to the NR and re-assign groups to that airbase that would be more efficient to the assigned mission than the aging biplanes. I'm thinking of disbanding all of them, but there's about 30 groups of U-2VS's still and I don't want to spend that kind of AP's to do that. There's no way to change the aircraft type of that air group and the only other way to get rid of them is to disband the group so I'm at a loss as to what to do with them. All my SAD air bases are being disbanded by the AI so I don't get a say in what to base at them anymore. I'm running low on available air bases. I suppose I COULD build some air bases but there's a cost like 25 AP's or so to build one of them. I don't know that I want to employ the U-2VS's that much. Anybody have an opinion? This is an air base on which I moved the U-2VS's to the NR and replaced them with these bombers and fighters.

Status: offline 		Once I moved all the U-2VS's to the NR I looked to see how many planes are there now and found 2200+ planes there so I'm thinking I need to buy at least one air base just to deploy some of the Migs and Laggs and Yak-1's. I'd like to see them shoot down some more Axis planes and I need them deployed to do that.

Status: offline 		Unfortunately, air bases aren't on the list of things I can buy. Anybody know if they are EVER available? Maybe I should check that Soviet unit list and see. Hold on one minute. I went through the list of things the Soviets can create and didn't see airbases on it. I guess that means I'll have to bump all the existing air bases up to the max level and fix damaged planes by moving them to the NR. Maybe the AI will create some air bases for me to use in some future turn real soon now.

Status: offline 		I've got 381 AP's to spend on something and I'm still ahead in trucks so far. What should I buy? Tank Corps? I've got a lot of tanks in the pool. I don't think I need any more rifle divisions yet, I've got reserves of those. Maybe some arty tubes? I haven't built any separate arty tubes yet. Just a thought.

Status: offline 		I bought 3 Rifle Divisions and left them parked on Tula since they are frozen for a couple of turns. I have been moving units ( I started in the north and am working my way south ) and found a spot that has no back-up units. It's just a naked division between the Axis and Russia. So I guess I need to purchase some back-up units to get ready for the spring/summer '42 Axis offensive 'cause I'm pretty sure that KLilly have have enough time to rest/refit his units a bit and still get in some kind of a strong push maybe a pocket or two before the mud starts to hid prior to winter again. So I have to prepare for it. Just in case.

Status: offline 		Putting the tank corps together will be expensive; you'll use up all those 500 APs in one turn and still have to wait for the next turn to finish all the conversions.

Mixing units of different commands produces penalties in combat power; it shows in the battle report where the units are listed.

The computer will automatically build more airbases as more air units are deployed on the screen.

I've saved up a bunch of AP's to do the tanks ( 380+ ).

I've already started building fall-back lines and digging for fortifications.
