magnno66 -> Schwerpunkt - reflection (1/18/2011 4:11:53 PM)

Last night I got a evreka feeling while playing the GE in the Road to Smolensk and Road to Ledingrad scenarios that I thought I'd share. In order to create a proper schwerpukt as the german doctrine stipulated, you need a PG of at least three pz corps. In order to keep up the momentum and retain cohesiveness for several turns, one should roll the three corps allways keeping one of them somewhat behind, ready to take over. This is possible with the two groups at hand in AGC. Used effectivly one can easily be in Bryansk and Vyazma on turn 9 playing on "normal". Looking at AG north in the RTL scenario one is equiped with a too-small pz-group to effectively gain a coherrent schwerpunkt. So what are the options here in order to increase chances to take Leningrad in the GC scenario? I haven't tried it yet, but I suggest, if you are after Leningrad instead of Moscow in 1941 you can shift one pz corps to army group north early in the game. That would give you the right toolbox for taking it. Any other reflections on creating schwerpunkts?
