I'm glad to say that despite horrible losses and the great weather that the Germans enjoyed till early November 41, I won a decisive victory on February 1st, 1942. Mud was a respite, then the cold started to produce malus (-20%, then -30%) on the German fighting ability. Strange, when very cold, my troops could move less than the Germans, but I had no fighting malus. The nazis were far from Leningrad, did not advance further on Moscow and then could not reach Rostov, as Voroshilovgrad held and never fell (Jukov helped the defence). So the German AI did something weird, they rushed west, in the glacy void of the steppes, towards Stalingrad, Saratov, Tambov and even tried to go North from there. There was no significant objective there, so I let them go. I launched a counter-attack North (I liberated Tallin) and Center (freeing Smolensk and Orsha). I finished the game with a score of 72 to 32. I never saw the famous 3 soviet cards Massed Artillery, Massed Armour and Air Defence. I destroyed 57 Axis divisions (more were cut-off but the game ended before I could finish them). I suffered 6 paranoid episodes, which I soothed by having 18 generals shot. I'm a hero
