Hi from the soviet [:'(]:
My opinion about some questions in this thread :
Scoring :
This bitter end scenario is lost for the soviet. I do not believe in fact the you can win point wise if you loose both leningrad and moscow. They give tons of points to the german each turn. (You can probably loose one, but not two).
Too many tanks corps, not enough artillery and infantry :
Yes and No. I do not believe i have too many tank corps. I have the equipment to use them.
It is true that i could use more infantry corps and artillery. (Not in main axe of offensive where it is already crowded, but everywhere else because quiet part of the front are currently a little too quiet for the german).
In fact i stopped producing new units end 1943 and i should not have done that. New units to do not weaken the red army. Currently my manpower production is growing and better than the one in 1942 due to returning disabled and capture of new towns.
I restarted the production mid 1944.
With proper management, i could probably had the current amount of tank corps and more others stuffs at the same time.
You should concentrate soviet tank ball more :
Not sūre and in fact i already concentrated large amount of troops at the same point with not very good results. You cannot stack so much unit due to the 3 stack limits, and also if you concentrate top soviet troops somewhere you will face top german troops. And top german troops still better than top soviet troops.
Maybe i fail at deception [:D]
You should not let your tanks corps being attacked :
It was in fact on purpose. I noticed that tank corps on the defensive inflicts tons of casualties on attacking german troops and i was expecting to attrit the german army
by forcing it to do costly counter attack each turn. So i kept my troops in contact.
It was not effective, probably because german manpower production is higher than i was expected. (Not counting german tanks that are very hard to damage, it is ever harder to attrit german tank production).
More IL-2 :
I have in fact tons of IL-2 squadron, but using them in detail take too much time and would have lead to a game burn out.
Unfortunately, automatic ground support is not very efficient with very, very limited impact on the battle results.
I could probably have caused from 2000 to 5000 casualties to german each turn by micromanaging 100 air raids each turn, but it really take too much time.
The worst is not doing the raid, (i managed to configure the automatic system to do quite efficient raid in one click). The worst is to rotate air squadron in and out reserve for morale management. The interface is terrible you need tons of click for each air squadron.
I'am also not sūre at all these casualties would have changed the game as i caused 30000+ casualties each turn to the german in 1943 with no noticeable effect.
You lack experience of late war WITE :
Really true, i did a lot of mistakes and mostly lost a lot of time with stuff that are in fact not very usefull.
WITE have tons of parameters, but not all these parameters have a real effect on the game.
I'am also not used to be on offensive it is a different sensation for a soviet player [:D]
And of course let's not forget Stephane state of the art defense. [&o]
