Tauroggen -> Leningrad (3/24/2012 4:06:22 PM)

After reading many "after action reports" I find that Leningrads importance in the game lies mainly in the industry and manpower points, and a more active play of the Finnish troops. As a consequence of that, many players argue to neglect the North (and even Moscow) and go for the South (because of the more industries there and because of the better tank war terrain) Historically the German Army Command (OKH) picked Leningrad as an important target because after taking Leningrad there could supply be shipped via the Baltic Sea to Leningrad for Army Group North. That would give AGN best supply status (as if sitting in Konigsberg), and would free much of the scarce railway cargo-space for the other Army Groups. As I understand it now, this advantage after taking Leningrad is not built in the game now, or is it?
