Cap your not in bad shape.

Sure he took Moscow, but he did not do much in the south. You saved more manpower then you would have lost if he did not take it and took what is normally taken in the south.

Be and interesting summer

shermanny -> RE: Turn 31 or January 15, 1942 (3/31/2016 12:02:05 AM)

You are going to be scarily vulnerable come March 1942. The bulges on either flank of Moscow both invite encirclement. The face of his salient at Moscow might be thinly held, and in that case, he can attack out of the face and create a situation where your lines get thinner and thinner on both flanks.

Long, thin lines and exposed salients are opportunities for the highly mobile Germans.

If you were to pull back in a timely fashion, especially in the North where there is nothing that much needs to be defended anyhow, you could give some depth and mass to your defenses elsewhere.





morvael -> RE: Turn 31 or January 15, 1942 (4/4/2016 10:15:54 PM)

In March 1942 German units are useless, there is still strength penalty (even on Mild Blizzard) and they are low on morale and equipment after all this hammering during winter (I kept morale at better levels at the price of higher losses by retaking most of the hexes captured during Soviet turn giving me wins, and thus morale gains). My frontline was long, and I was unable to put panzers in reserve, so they spent winter fighting and are now at 45-65% TOE (especially infantry is missing). But Führer's orders were fulfilled - not one step back [:)]

morvael -> RE: Turn 35 or February 12, 1942 (5/4/2016 11:29:00 AM)

Oh, I haven't noticed that. You really destroyed some Rumanian support units? I think they are too fragile, being attached to HQs and never subjected to direct attack.




chaos45 -> RE: Turn 35 or February 12, 1942 (5/5/2016 4:37:43 AM)

ya Morvael I noticed it in the last couple patches support units being much more commonly destroyed in normal combats. Esp Soviet support units in 1941. This in turn makes axis allied support units easier to kill due to their lower morale/exp.

Dont remember which patch it was but it was one of the last couple this started happening alot more often.




morvael -> RE: Turn 35 or February 12, 1942 (5/5/2016 8:40:21 AM)

There is greater chance for units below division strength to rout or shatter. But it shouldn't apply to support units, especially when sent from HQ and being long-range artillery. Something to look at for next patch (I intend it to be only a small bugfix patch).




cpt flam -> Turn 36 or February 19, 1942 (5/15/2016 9:39:06 AM)

It is great to see the buldges which historically formed in Winter 1941/42. Well, Hitler wanted to keep moscow threatened, here moscow is taken, but who cares. For sure more interesting than straight line from leningrad to rostov.




cpt flam -> Turn 37 or February 26, 1942 (5/16/2016 4:01:26 PM)

yes but more dangerous too!

We will fight to the death for our bulge! Not one step back!

edit: at this point I was really desperately holding the bridgehead over Oka. I really didn't want to be pushed back behind the river. The mini Tula-bulge (part of the big Moscow-bulge) was really gone at this point, but I still held to bridges and the winter has nearly ended.
