sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/15/2011 11:12:01 AM)

Turn 1

Soviet forces are completely unprepared for war and scramle to create the semblance of a frontline. To our delight German forces are diverted from AGC to AGS.

Looking good to me. I would try and exploit the shallow penetration by Axis west of Minsk by deploying sacrifice units in checkerboard. When I play Axis I am at minsk on Turn 1 and it's gone on Turn 2 and usually I am pressing into the gap near Smolensk by Turn 3. You have probably got the chance to slow this timetable down by at least 1 turn.

Turn 2

Industry evacuated from Mogilev and Armament from Gomel.

Northern Fronts

River near Pskov breached, but advance in the center is slow.

sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/16/2011 2:47:14 AM)

Southern Fronts

A very timid approach by the Axis forces in the area prompts a forward defense.

Turn 3

Axis advance cautiously. A couple of heroic infantry division hold against panzer attacks. Industry in Odessa along with some from Leningrad is evacuated.

sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/16/2011 1:11:01 PM)

Another heroic defense near Pskov.

Northern fronts

I don't give much priority to the defense of Leningrad, hoping simply to delay while I evacuate industry.

Southern fronts

A southern hook forces a withdrawal.

Turn 4

Most industry is evacuated from Leningrad. In the south we counter-attack, but it could have been much worse for the Germans if we had been smart enough to move more armor south last week.

Northern fronts

Germans are still halted at the river as we reinforce a potential bridgehead.

The "great river line" is almost ready.

Peltonx -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/16/2011 11:03:44 PM)

Looks good so far. Just keep evacing stuff. Pull out ARM and HVY pts first.




Aussiematto -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/17/2011 5:14:57 AM)

You have him on toast -- forward defence seems like a good idea now. I'd probably try keeping Leningrad too



sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/17/2011 10:06:53 PM)

Turn 5

Reorganisation starts. Each army will have 12 divisions and each front a minimum of 3 armies. Of course the real front is much more chaotic than that. Industry is evacuated in the south (and I think I may have made a mistake? I partially evacuated the T-34 factories and the rest of them disappeared?)

M60A3TTS -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/17/2011 10:11:24 PM)

Yes, the tank factories require a total evacuation in a single turn. Any factory points not moved out that turn are lost. This differs from armaments and HI.



sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/17/2011 11:17:24 PM)

Oh well horrible loss there for the Soviets. I blame some random general from STAVKA who will be put on trial...



sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/18/2011 7:52:29 PM)

Turn 6

Every turn a small step back to avoid too many deliberate infantry attacks.

cpt flam -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/19/2011 7:51:51 AM)

as opposed to you I prefer to leave a lone division in contact (prefer with a lot of unit)
of course it will not make great but attrition losses will grow
allways better to erode them [:D]



sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/19/2011 8:13:52 AM)

I think avoiding routs and encirclements trumps attrition for the first 17 turns. As soon as mud hits though I will stay in permanent contact.



Reedster -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/19/2011 11:32:08 AM)

Nice work sveint... I recently started my first GC 41 as Axis so I'm following your AAR as a rough gauge to my own progress.

A teeny request though, could you please put the date after the turn number? For example, turn 6 (Jul 24th) - I'm rather date obsessive [:D]



sveint -> RE: Empire101 (Axis) vs sveint (Sov) - Soviet PoV (7/19/2011 10:18:11 PM)

Turn 7, 7/31/1941

Not much happening. We make a few failed counterattacks in the southwestern front. In the far south a panzer division crosses the river.

Turn 8

Report will be brief as I played a bit fast. We were worried there was a bug not letting the Axis fly their aircraft, but apparently the bug was in OKH which had set required to fly to 100%. No screenshot from the south unfortunately: the panzers are advancing across the river in the very far south.
