terje439 -> RE: Gnikam eht ni retsasid - Oloren USSR, Terje Axis, No Oloren (6/29/2012 5:19:43 PM)

Turn 119

Overall
Three more turns untill mud, hope to delay the USSR from reaching our main line before that, but it is hard to withstand the onslought in the open, but we will just keep reshuffling our forces, making the USSR attacking badly depleted units to save the combat ready ones for frontline duty at the German Line.
The USSR launch no less than 66 attacks, scoring 7 helds, 47 retreats, 8 routs, 1 shatter and 1 surrender this turn. We only make one attack causing a retreat.

Losses
USSR : 97.000 troops, 924 guns, 462 AFVs, 497 AC.
Axis : 77.000 troops, 1.648 guns, 135 AFVs, 14 AC.
Most of our AFV losses are self propelled TDs.

Units lost
The 3rd Rumanian Infantry Division shatter, and the 1st Rumanian Mountain Division, the 387th German Infantry Division and the 83rd German Infantry Division surrenders.

Pools
Manpower : 644.693
Vehicle : 291.721
Armaments : 202.052
Hiwi : 189

Pest control
Our forces pull back to the location of the lone partisan that shows up. Needless to say, the partisans got scared, really scared.

terje439 -> RE: Gnikam eht ni retsasid - Oloren USSR, Terje Axis, No Oloren (6/30/2012 8:54:48 AM)

Turn 120

Overall
The USSR keeps pushing, but it is now clear that they will not make it to the German Line before mud sets in. Success!
A total of 46 USSR attacks results in 4 helds, 38 retreats, 3 routs and 1 shatter. Our only attack only forced a mechanized corps to retreat, not rout as we hoped. Oh well cannot win them all I suppose.

Losses
USSR : 71.000 troops, 582 guns, 381 AFVs, 562 AC.
Axis : 47.000 troops, 868 guns, 71 AFVs, 67 AC.

Units lost
The 35th Reserve Rumanian Infantry Division shatters. One less "enemy" unit to worry about in a few turns.

Pools
Manpower : 656.636 or about to 20 prewar divisions...
Vehicle : 290.240
Armaments : 204.215 ok, so guess those 20 prewar divisions would have some issues with weapons...
Hiwi : 1

Pest control
One partisan shows up in the path of my troops that are falling back. As they realize that alot of German Panzers are closing in on them, they vanish.

Overall
So, the USSR flips Rumania, but they flip alot more, and all the Hungarians are kidnapped by aliens as well...
A total of 47 USSR attacks results in 2 helds, 35 retreats and 10 routs. We make 1 attack and score a retreat.

Losses
USSR : 73.000 troops, 633 guns, 471 AFVs, 481 AC.
Axis : 53.000 troops, 1.345 guns, 75 AFVs, 25 AC.

Units lost
All Rumanians and all Hungarians

Pools
Manpower : 918.435
Vehicle : 305.348
Armaments : 206.724
Hiwi : 4

Thougts
New goal now, reach 1M manpower in the pool!

You should have garrisoned Arad, that prevents the Hungarians from surrendering together with the Romanians. Now you better take up positions in those mountains.

Turn 122 aka Blessed mud

Overall
The USSR attacks as many places as possible before we are given a little rest during the mud period. All in all they launch 54 attacks, scoring 8 helds and 46 retreats.

Losses
USSR : 72.000 troops, 545 guns, 410 AFVs, 554 AC.
Axis : 46.000 troops, 1.137 guns, 91 AFVs, 44 AC.

Pools
Sorry, forgot to record it this turn.

Pest control
Another partisan pops up in the path of our retreating forces.

Only what 112 turns left. Halfway there.

That is to survive untill the end of the RL war. My immediate goals now is;

1. Reach the 1M mark in the manpower pool
2. Deny virtual Adolf a meal of Cyanide and Lead untill the end of -44

I fear #2 will be the harder one to achieve

terje439 -> RE: Gnikam eht ni retsasid - Oloren USSR, Terje Axis, No Oloren (7/4/2012 4:10:13 PM)

Turn 123

Overall
We keep pulling back, and our rail capacity is used to the max to redeploy, still most of our units are forced to walk on their feet, and not all are able to keep up, so I expect to lose a division next turn. But rather one division than several, so they are on their own.
The USSR make one attack and score one surrender this turn.

Losses
USSR : 44.000 troops, 80 guns, 143 AFVs, 259 AC.
Axis : 41.000 troops, 614 guns, 19 AFVs, 4 AC.

Units lost
76th Infantry Division and 255th Infantry Division.

Pools
Manpower : 923.069
Vehicle : 295.527
Armaments : 211.790
Hiwi : 148

terje439 -> RE: Gnikam eht ni retsasid - Oloren USSR, Terje Axis, No Oloren (7/5/2012 1:21:07 PM)

Turn 124

Overall
Still pulling back, trying to reform the armies, and discover that I really do not have enough divisions to cover the front as I would like. Should have dug in around Berlin instead...
The USSR surround the slow moving unit from last turn. Well, will make them waste some MP atleast...

Losses
USSR : 36.000 troops, 34 guns, 123 AFVs, 236 AC.
Axis : 10.000 troops, 6 guns, 19 AFVs, 5 AC.
Yeay, I am within winning ratios again [:D]

Units disbanded
We disband 24 fortified zones as we now have divisions to keep the fort levels from decaying.

Pools
Manpower : 947.682
Vehicles : 286.132
Armaments : 214.239
Hiwi : 2006

bigbaba -> RE: Gnikam eht ni retsasid - Oloren USSR, Terje Axis, No Oloren (7/5/2012 2:00:07 PM)

the units in the orange circle are some kind of "terje439's flying circus" in very different colors. will be a fun to reorganize them.:) but you have more then enough AP's.

it's end of 43 and he is at the borders of poland. not good.

you may lose berlin before 45 and so the war but you are realy made of some hard stuff to continue playing this "lost game". that earns respect.

btw: i see that you have nearly 1 mio. men in your pool. can you keep disbanding any AT, ARTY, AA..units to get armament back to arm this poor guys? such a reinforcment for your front troops would give you a chance to hold the front for a while.

1. Hehe yeah going to be a hoot [:D]
2. This game has been in a state of not good since the end of -41 [:D]
3. Yeah Berlin will fall before -45, I have no doubt about it, but Brad has earned the chance to raze the city, so he will be allowed to do so.
4. There are still 200k+ of armaments in the pool, so will there really be any increase of number of men going to the front if I disband those units? And not sure disbanding AT at this time is a good choice since there are ALOT of USSR AFVs out there...

bigbaba -> RE: Gnikam eht ni retsasid - Oloren USSR, Terje Axis, No Oloren (7/5/2012 2:24:05 PM)

if you can send some mauled divisions 10+ hex behind the front (do you have the 10 hex for that?[;)]) and set them on refit they will suck men&guns from the pool. but you said it earlier that you don't have enough units to cover the whole front. at some point later in the war you should get a lot of new divisions with very low numbers. maybe you can send the guys to this units.

Turn 125

Overall
The surrounded unit is attacked by the USSR and surrenders. Apart from that we reshuffle some divisions. go through which units are to be set to ready and which ones are to recieve reinforcements. We also disband 4 more fortified zones as more troops take up position on the line.

Losses
USSR : 37.000 troops, 66 guns, 113AFVs, 373 AC.
Axis : 14.000 troops, 104 guns, 21 AFVs, 2AC.

Units lost
The 106th Infantry Division surrenders.

Pools
Manpower : 944.566
Vehicle : 280.721
Armaments : 216.682
Hiwi : 259

Slight concerns
We lack some 600 AFVs to be at full strength, and we have about 220 in the pools, but of those some 190 are Tigers, which we have enough of at the frontline units allready. Need more PzIVs and Panthers...

Turn 126

Overall
Nothing new to report apart from huge holes in my lines. I could definitievely use another 20 or so divisions...
One of our divisions were too slow when falling back and is surrounded this turn, and I even doubt they will fight on for months for the "Vaterland"...Those cowards!

Losses
Extremely light losses this turn.
USSR : 35.000 troops, 57 guns, 123 AFVs, 247 AC.
Axis : 6.000 troops, 12 guns, 20 AFVs, 4 AC.

Units disbanded
17 fortified zones were disbanded this turn.

Pools
Manpower : 955.397
Vehicles : 279.408
Armaments : 219.157
Hiwi : 1.542

Turn 127

Overall
2nd turn of snow, and I am still not completely back at the line, but we are getting there faster than the USSR anyway, although the USSR have made contact with our line on the Baltic coast. The line is looking better and better as more and more troops are occupying it, now if we can hold it through the winter it is nothing but a miracle I guess.

Losses
USSR : 30.000 troops, 50 guns, 138 AFVs, 227 AC.
Axis : 11.000 troops, 97 guns, 18 AFVs, 2AC.

Units lost
The 389th infantry division surrenders to the Soviets.

Units disbanded
We disband another 7 fortifed zones this turn.

Pools
Manpower : 959.980
Vehicles : 279.512
Armaments : 221.653
Hiwi : 665

Turn 128

Overall
We spend almost all (could not spend the alst 4) our PPs on reorganizing our corps', my main goal is to free up some HQs that will then be sent to the mountains in the south. No attacks are made by either side.
