We are presently on turn 167. On turn 167 the highest morale for a Guards Tank Corps is 93 (base 80), Guards Rifle Corps 90 (base 70), and Guards Cavalry Corps 90 (base 70). On turn 167 I will post the screenshots of these units.

I didn't build any Mech Corps this game as they require too many trucks.

Status: offline 		On your end of turn screenshots some rifle corps have enough MPs for a hasty attack but not enough for a deliberate one.
I suggest using their MPs for a hasty attack even at bad odds. It will most likely fail, but
-you cause some losses
-you by now have more manpower than you can use, e.g. any losses taken will be easily replaced
-you cause fatigue on both sides, but the Axis units will be adjacent to yours during their logistics phase=won't shed the fatigue easily while your units won't be in contact due to the Axis retreat and lose the fatigue quickly

The incursion into Hungary lengthens the front nicely. The railheads won't be able to follow your advance limiting armoured MPs. I think some Axis 1941 tactics can be used here, e.g. convert hexagons with cavalry and a share of the motorized forces while the other half waits in the back to refuel and travel with reduced MP&fuel cost.

Thank you for the advice.
The Soviets presently have a manpower pool of about 700,000, increasing every turn. Their manpower production per turn is about 80,000.

Stavka's operational goal is now to capture Berlin before January 1945 and then continue advancing west and meet the Allies at the border of France.
