Peltonx -> RE: Turn 44 or April 16, 1942 (7/18/2016 12:27:32 AM)

Good struggle for sure, Germany has a small OOB for 4/42.



morvael -> RE: Turn 44 or April 16, 1942 (7/18/2016 8:00:46 AM)

But they still got a lot of fight left in them [:)]

morvael -> RE: Turn 46 or April 30, 1942 (7/31/2016 8:33:53 AM)

So you have detected my motorized units when they shifted to the SW of Orel...



Peltonx -> RE: Turn 46 or April 30, 1942 (7/31/2016 1:21:30 PM)

Your going to lose men, but you have to make him pay a cost.

Also you will have areas of the front you should baable to attack on, these seeming meaningly attacks really help grind down German OOB below 3.5 million.

Once German OOB is below 3.5 million it really starts seeing the effects and opens up allot more weak spots in the lines and the steamrolling can start in summer of 43.

Allot of Russian players don
t attack enough in 42. Areas where you know your going to lose units attack attack attack as your going to lose 100,000 men to surrender anyways like that bulge in the lins atleast make him pay some cost for them.



morvael -> RE: Turn 46 or April 30, 1942 (7/31/2016 3:17:24 PM)

But who has the stomach to accept 1:6 losses, now that the counterattack feature exists?



cpt flam -> Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/7/2016 10:30:00 AM)

and you must accapt that this AAR got late (actual turn 62 playing)
Konstantin Rokossovsy is promoted Général-Leitenant
they made a big pocket with good weather
this week i could reopened it
good news is the first guard tank corp created
losses are
2.9 k for 11.6 of my own men
70 vs 370 Art

morvael -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/8/2016 7:55:49 PM)

I'm a veteran of making reopenable pockets, guess my battle plans are too ambitious or the execution too sloppy [:)]
It seems, I always lack just one 50MP division to make a tight pocket...



chaos45 -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/8/2016 9:33:28 PM)

either way thats a massive pocket you will most likely secure this turn......



M60A3TTS -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/8/2016 9:47:55 PM)

Zakharov is worthy of a guards army. Klykov is third rate and should be replaced.

Well, it's May so the weather may be my friend or enemy. It all depends where the mud will appear.



chaos45 -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/8/2016 11:15:31 PM)

even with mud---it doesnt look like he got more than a tank BDE in the way---some bombing followed by a ground attack should get the hex and just save one unit to step in...because good luck the soviets moving Germans in the mud lol



morvael -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/9/2016 6:32:29 AM)

But I'm afraid to be involved in a contest like the battle near the Sea of Azov in October 1941, where my isolated SS troops fought with isolated Soviet troops for weeks. That left them totally exhausted, despite air supply.



Icier -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/9/2016 7:13:29 AM)

How is your armor?
I found under the new amendments, that my armor suffered losses greater than before.



morvael -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/9/2016 8:09:00 AM)

Armor is fine, but I have trouble replacing motorized infantry. My motorized infantry divisions operate at 30-45% TOE, while panzers at 45-60% TOE. This is of course mostly due to them being sent far away from railhead turn after turn (penetrating enemy lines), where they have trouble replacing losses. Infantry is at 55-65%.



morvael -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/9/2016 8:37:35 PM)

Panzer report

STEF78 -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/9/2016 9:24:24 PM)

Ouch, such big Pocket early may 1942 isn't a good news for the russians!

Summer will be very long....



morvael -> RE: Turn 47 or May 7, 1942 (8/9/2016 9:34:26 PM)

It's way too short [:(]

I had similar figures & found it took over 2 months plus to get my motorized up 70% TOE & I had them
sitting in Prussia....mind you it doesnt help that there are TOE upgrades during this period.
