Turn 61 Overall A rather slow turn, the Axis is now hampered by their rapid advance, and they too need to reform. As a result the Axis only launch 9 attacks this turn, scoring 1 rout, 2 surrender and 6 retreats (of which two were partisan attacks). We are still trying to reform the line, and it seems we are likely to succeed, but it will be thin. Just because we can, we launch 2 attacks, and score 2 retreats. However the Axis losses are lower than ours in these attacks, so I am not sure about their value. Losses are reported at 26.000 Axis troops to our 96.000. Units This turn I decided to spend my precious CP on forming 2 rifle corps and 1 Guards rifle corps. It seems to me that the formation of rifle corps is crucial to form units that have some chance to inflict damage to the Axis and to hold against an Axis attack. So the only new unit on the map, is yet another airfield, which I really do not need at the moment. Our losses this turn were 1 cavalry corps, 1 cavalry division, 2 rifle divisions, 2 rifle brigades and 1 AA regiment. These were units that were encircled last turn, so no shock there. Our remaining units grew by 101.000 troops this turn. Industry Just to be on the safe side, evacuation of factories from Stalingrad is started. We empty Southern Stalingrad by moving the 3 armaments factories there, and from the main centre of Stalingrad, we move out 36 T-60 M1941 factories as well as 9 vehicle factories. We will need atleast one more (probably two more) turns to empty the city. Worries I am now not sure wether to spend my CP on building new units (badly needed), form existing units into corps (they atleast do not surrender on the line, and usually do not rout), or reassign HQs (also badly needed at this time, but can be avoided by slowly reshuffling my forces).
