But, given that all his armor is off your radar, and is likely to strike somewhere soon, they may serve even better as a reserve for the main front.....

Status: offline 		T78: I bought several new Rifle Divisions and Rifle Brigades and left them parked near Leningrad. I'm thinking I can use them to attack the
Finns near Leningrad and maybe push them back far enough to make the Finns abandon the war.

Status: offline 		The turn is Dec. 10, 1942 and I probably jumped the gun a little too early with my moves in Northwest Front. I had some stacks of three
and spread them out to flip the hexes and form another front line and comparing the CV's of the enemy units I'm thinking on second
thought that maybe I shouldn't have done that. More people, I need more people there. But I'm out of AP's for this turn so the new
rifle brigades for this area will have to wait until next turn.

Status: offline 		I noticed this turn that most of my aircraft groups are now in size 32-at-a-time instead of 20-at-a-time. And there were some
squadrons that came 10 as a full group. I went through the air force disbanding those groups of size 10 to replace them with size
32 squadrons. I'm not sure how much of a difference it'll make but I'm guessing it might have some slight impact on the air war.

units.

Your tank fleet looks low.

If you have lots of artillery ( of the right type ) in the pool, consider building artillery divisions.

I did not know that. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm low on AP's right at the moment but I do plan on building a bunch of tank Corps.

Are the right types the 152mm dudes or 122mm dudes? Or something else entirely?

longer front line. Maybe I need to buy some rifle brigades or something.

front line. I did a lot of deliberate attacks and flew a bunch of air base strikes. Reconed a bunch. Anyway, here's how it ended up.

Status: offline 		I'm running short of vehicles already. He must have destroyed more vehicle production factories than I thought. Or maybe that's just a
short-term shortfall due to my moving some vehicle factories from where-ever they were to safety. I really can't remember moving some
vehicle factories. I'll look on the production page for clues.

to the last 140 factories I had. So I guess I'll be hurting for vehicles for the rest of the game. And that kinda puts the kabosh on the
fielding of vast tank Armies. Oh well. It's going to be a long war.

Be careful going on the offensive west of Narva, as he could relatively easily surround your forces against the sea if he pushes at the "hinge" at Lake Peipus.

Good idea. Thanks for your input. I really like it when people give me good ideas. Keep 'em coming.

Status: offline 		I have to admit that KLilly has me stumped on what he is doing....given the sudden occurrence of armor near the Crimea, I'd expect an attack there. But why would he be withdrawing in the north and center? Is he hurting for manpower? Where is he withdrawing to?

And I *still* would not be concerned about Finland. You can hold him off with a few brigades and fortified zones and withdraw all other troops now to where the action is happening. Once Berlin is gone, you can easily withdraw 40 or so Guard corps and 60.000 airplanes to bulldoze into Helsinki.

space left when the Axis units pulled back to the south. I've got mostly rifle brigades in this area which I guess I'll keep moving into the
empty hexes and see if I can't manufacture some rifle Corps to rail up here or something.
