Need to pull the 11th army troops at the Crimea back some to locations where the Russian can only mass a max of 3 units against you. Get in the choke points. If you allow him to be able to get attacks from 2 hexes or more, he is going to break your line come blizzard. I would make sure the Romanian Mtn units are down there also. Swapping out a regular inf div for a German Mtn div broken down to regiment in each hex with a normal German inf div will make the blocking force down there much better come blizzard if you can locate in areas he can only mass 3 units against you. If you move all the Ally mountain units down there and locate with a regular German div, you could use the German Mtn as your reserve down there to break his teeth.

You need to get some Ally troops in any size 2 and above town/city and start them digging. Those cities will help protect them from Blizzard. The blizzard will butcher the allied troops much worse than your German troops. Only the Mtn troops are worth anything come the 2nd to 3rd turn of blizzard. Allies that is. The others will crumble like a wet piece of paper at the slightest attack.

Your front line seems to be awfull. You failed to capture Leningrad, Moscow, Stalino... any valuable object. I belive the retreat to the non-blizzard line would be the best strategy at this time. Saving your troops morale, manpower + equipment. In 42 you can try to hit the strong soviet forces, with high morale troops.

You are going to be hard pressed, that is for sure, no matter what you do really. Focus on killing and beating the crap out of every Cav unit you can see or get at. They are the worst demon's you will face during the blizzard. Encircle them if you can and kill them, they should always be your priority target.
