Despite the weather and Russian resistance 18th Armee crosses The narva River in force, 4th Pz takes Novgorod and pushes forward.

further south 16th Armee makes steady ground on wide front, further south 9th Armee with elements of 3rd Pz cut off Soviet troops in the Toropets and Andreapol area.

9th Armee then takes up positions in front of 3rd Pz.

In this sector both 2nd and 3rd Pz combine to trap Russian Armour while the Inf Armee's keep pushing forward on a wide front.

More POW's head to captivity as Ostheer has almost past through the Marshes.

Bryansk is now within sight.

Weather is also slowing us down here along with steady arrival of Russian reinforcements.

The pockets are all but cleared and attacks on Odessa continue, further East 11th Arnee takes Kherson and encircles Nikolaev.

Russian forces fall back as the weather is still good movement is not hindered.

Odessa resists defiantly given the fact they are facing overwhelming numbers.

I have to break through soon as the weather will turn here in the coming weeks.

The supply situation for the Armee is fine but for the Air force its a different story.

I need to use some ground support attacks and also Air units moved forward.

Another decent haul of POW's this turn, almost at the 2 million mark.

Our losses were quite high in particular our AFV's.

This was of course from launching attacks against Odessa.

Had some serious losses this week all across the from but mainly in the South.

The Air Defenders at Odessa put up heavy resistance, and I cant completely isolate the sea routes to the City.

We are still maintaining our numbers in most areas but the Russians keep throwing up walls as there reinforcements continue to arrive.

Things are still on schedule for the most part.

Shorten you Baltic shipping lines by running freight only from Danzig and/or Konberg. Without being able to see your rail net, also consider only shipping to Riga, Parnu and/or Talinnin.

4th Pz continues its drive towards Lake Ladoga as 18th Armee moves against The Oranienbaum Fortress.

Further South 9th, 16th and elements of 3rd Pz encircle a small pocket.

The terrain is getting tougher as the units move through heavy forrests

Its the last days of August and I am still some ways to Moscow both Pz Armee's pocket Red Army troops.

Kursk and Orel seem a million miles away looking at the map with the weather hindering my movements not to mention stubborn resistance by The soviets.

Supply lines are getting further away, which is not helping.

Preparations for the attack on Odessa continue as the Russian pockets are destroyed in central Ukraine.

But once again another wall appears in front of 1st Pz still the terrain is better here than in the North.

11th Armee edges closes to the gates of The Crimea.

Russian losses remain steady, almost at the 2 million mark for POW's.

But its getting harder now to make those big pockets as The Russian forces thin out over the map.

Still maintaining my lead across the board so that is good thing for now.

it will change in the coming weeks as OKW decides to pull troops out and send them everywhere but where there needed the most.

The Red Army continues to decline as the pockets mount and there forces go into captivity.

My Army is still well over 3 million.

Another pocket is formed close to The fortress in front of Leningrad, still huge amounts of enemy troops here to clear to reach the city.

Further South 16th Armee maintains pressure on the Red Army as it moves into the hills to take up defensive positions for the winter period.

After destroying most of the troops trapped in pockets more are formed as the Russians cant retreat fast enough to evade my mobile troops.

Orel looks now reachable as well as Kaluga and those factories there.

1st Pz smashes through the Russian line and races to the River Cities, a large pocket is formed in the process.

However the big news Odessa has fallen finally, I beginning to think I would never take it before winter set in, once the Port is functioning it will be better for my forces being resupplied.

Once i take the two cities on the river I should now pass the sudden death threshold.

Supply situation continues to be excellent with The Army well stocked, the Air force is another matter.

Must find ways to get it back in the black, still need to set up my depot system better.

Broke the 2 million mark for POW's and still maintaining the destruction of the AFV forces on The Soviets, need to capture and or destroy as many of those T 34's.

I am hoping I can get several more weeks of these numbers.

The Luftwaffe rules the skies well for the moment as The Red Air forces losses continue to climb while mine are now manageable.

I did lose a few planes in the capture of Odessa but it was worth it.

Both 18th and 4th Pz begin the offensive against Leningrad, 18th attacks Oranienbaum, while 4th Pz pushes to isolate Leningrad and cut the rail link to Moscow.

Further south 16th Armee routes the defenders opposing it and begins to break into the spaces vacated by the fleeing Reds.

More rain but the drive continues.

I begin to destroy the pockets here as well as create new ones, The red Army seems to have disappeared for the time being there is not many defenders in front of Moscow.

It just like if I can clear the remaining enemy units 3rd Pz could drive right up to the gates.

Byansk is encircled and units from 2nd Pz push on towards Orel.

The attack on Odessa has left a lot of unit worn out so I will put them in refit mode for now.

The good news again is one the river cities is taken and the other is encircled also major pushes right across the front trapps more enemy units.

I not certain how much longer I can keep pushing the troops i will have to stop this onslaught soon and rest entire Armee's but I don't want the momentum either.

Another big week of heavy losses for Russians,and with more pockets formed.

In the coming weeks I think there will be a big influx from STAVKA's reserves I will have to deal with though.

Well the AI again took a big hit with plane losses while I did well by keeping GS off and using it sparingly.


These numbers will change in the coming weeks though.
