Done. Only 32 retreats [&:]

Leningrad attacks. As you can see most would have been against the odds. I am advancing here.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 8:27:31 PM)

In the Volkhov and Northwest Fronts attacks were possible. Quite good turn here [8D] I am advancing here as well.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 8:29:58 PM)

The Kalinin Front. Few attacks. I am NOT advancing.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 8:33:37 PM)

Western Front. Few attacks as well and I am not advancing. He should be retreating some divisions or... [sm=00000622.gif]

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 8:42:58 PM)

The Bryansk Front. Here I made a mistake [:(] I was not supposed to advance (no active front). The thing is attacked first here and in the southwest (great opportunities on this area, if you know what I mean [sm=00000622.gif]), and then when I attacked in the north I forgot I had advanced in the Bryansk Front. I am retreating part of the forces (which successfully attacked from an ILLEGAL position by the way). I can't retreat a stack though x=0 [:)]

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 8:48:05 PM)

The Southwest Front deserves two screenshots as I launched many many attacks here. That's what I call a nice massacre. 2ndACR is very weak here [:)] I obviously advanced here.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 8:48:57 PM)

And part two. In fact you can see some held things.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 8:53:44 PM)

In the Southern Front only one attack. I am not advancing. LOL, I hadn't paid attention: he dared attack me [sm=00000612.gif]... [:D]

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 9:07:07 PM)

Many rifle and airbornes brigades are already digging to prepare defensive lines (you can see them on the screenshots, behind the front-line). I keep bringing ALL of them every turn to the front, more or less spreading them. Their vital task: dig... or DIE!



TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 9:56:49 PM)

The first of my Reserve Armies is ready. It's the 1st Shock Army. It will be helping in the center (attached to Stavka itself), in the Western or Bryansk Fronts
[sm=cool0013.gif]

Good leader, plenty of support.

Klydon -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 10:00:10 PM)

Nice job so far. As your attacks proceed, hopefully you should start seeing guards units pop up. 

How are the cav corps going?



TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 10:16:08 PM)

The 4 Shock Army has also been formed. Good leader and lot of support. It will help basically in the south (Southwestern and Southern Fronts).

The 2 Shock Army is already assigned and fighting in the Volkhov Front. The 3rd (not formed yet, only one Guards Rifle division assigned) will be fighting in the Northwest Front (as per history): it should help to protect the Leningrad southern flank.

I think I have like a dozen divisions (attached to Stavka). I might form 3 regular armies on next turns as well. We will see.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (4/29/2011 10:17:07 PM)

I already formed 11 Cavalry Corps on the first december turn. I am sending them forward. Let's see if they can exploit an attack [8D]



TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/2/2011 10:17:22 PM)

Turn 28

25 december 1941


Christmas! [8D]

A psychological barrier has been almost broken. The Germans have less than 3 million men. And I almost have a 6 million men Red Army.

PeeDeeAitch -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/2/2011 10:35:38 PM)

In my most recent campaign PBEM I had less than 3 million by the first blizzard turn...of course, I caused 4.25 million casualites, but still!



TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/2/2011 10:47:56 PM)

My losses so far are 2,7 million [8D] You killed a lot... but were obviously killed in the process. It makes sense [:)]

And by the way, the German losses are historical [X(] 900.000 men only on 1941 (in the real war that is).

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:26:03 AM)

Volkhov and Northwest Fronts. Active therefore I am advancing.

Kalinin Front: attacks were not possible here.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:29:29 AM)

Some attacks in the Western Front. No active = I am not advancing [8D]

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:31:26 AM)

Bryansk Front. I am advancing (active).

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:33:26 AM)

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:35:08 AM)

Southwestern Front Southern Massacre (active idem etc.)

[image]local://upfiles/11562/C2DE4DB25F584499BA06F7F65A4C308E.jpg[/image]



TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:40:26 AM)

The Southern Front reserves (3 rifle divisions) were finally put to good use this turn [;)]

They were assigned to 9th Army (southern flank of this front AND very WEAK) and made possible attacks against the poor Rumanians: 3 divisions routed [:)] No active, I am NOT advancing.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:45:57 AM)

Partisans were active. Good for them and double ration of vodka [8D]

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:49:31 AM)

Oh, and I unleashed the bears near Sevastopol as well. One German Infantry Division forced to retreat.

TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 12:53:20 AM)

And the Kerch Strait thing. The 51st Army covers this part, attached to Caucasus Front.

[image]local://upfiles/11562/FFFCF43360FE44F8B92D50AD37A2B85B.jpg[/image]



TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 2:24:17 AM)

And finally, I have formed 4 reserve armies (aka attached to Stavka). Each one has 4 rifle divisions and 1 tank brigade: 3rd, 10th, 33rd and 46th. All of them have support units as well.

I have sent the 4th Shock Army to the Southern Front (attached the same to Stavka) to reinforce the offensive down there.

And I have bought 3 Rifle Divisions and 10 Rifle Brigades (needed to form the defensive lines I already mentioned).



TulliusDetritus -> RE: Stalin's in the gulag - Tullius (Soviet) vs 2ndACR (Axis) (5/3/2011 9:54:27 PM)

Turn 29

1 january 1942


1: During turns 25-27 the soviets may attack with 4 fronts.
2: During turns 28-34 the soviets may attack with 3 fronts.
3: During turns 35-37 the soviets may attack with 2 fronts.
4: No Front can attack for more than 3 turns in row - i.e. they must rest every 4th turn.

Oops, looks like on last turn (28) only 3 fronts were allowed to advance. My mistake (4 advanced)... again [:D]

This also means the Volkhov, Northwest and Southwest fronts CANNOT advance this turn. The "more than 3 turns in a row thing".
