ORIGINAL: delatbabel I can't believe you can suggest Leningrad can be held against chaining (which is the new mules, really). I have opponents here that regularly take Leningrad on turn 4, there's no serious way you can hold it past 17 unless the Germans let you do that to bottle up the units. Similarly, against a player that chains, the Russians have no real alternative other than to Sir Robinovsky unless they want to lose 3-4 million men, and that pretty much dooms Moscow. Getting the industry out is easy enough, though, and Moscow can usually be retaken in the winter. It's a big manpower hit, though. After 1.06.13 if your lossing Leningrad on turn 4 you clearly are doing allot wrong. Also I have not seen Moscow lost, many close calls. If your any good Moscow is easyly held during 1941. Leningrad if you move troops from the south is a hard nut to crack. Chaining is nothing like muling and you should really not comment on things you have zero idea what your talking about. Muling before .13 basicly a skilled GHC player could keep 100% of panzer units at plus 35 MP for 17 turns. Chaining you can only keep 2 Corps at 35 MPs for the summer and not the same one for more then a turn. You have to rotate 3 Corps. Chianing is very very easly countered in North/Center above Tula. In the south it is effective from turns 1-7 and 11-17
