Only Rumanians holding the exits from Crimea - I do think we need to worry about that

It looks like a push into Yaro is happening but there are lots of 0?0 hexes which means HQ's, airfields etc

This time the forecast mud does occur. Supply flights keep some of the isolated Finnish units in beachhead status.

My god, so many units in the south that is where they will push
Attacking towards Rostov, tricky, not sure if I'll be able to isolate first turn
but looks like I'll be able to bag at least a good portion, maybe 20 units
1 to setup, 2 to close, 3 to eliminate but I'll take some hits after that

Got the port
I've got infantry moved up, XXXIV and the mountain corps
I've assigned stugs and pioneers directly for this
I'll reinforce the 6 CV divisions - the mountain gets 2 flams - 13 cv, lol, doubled
Bit worried about the SS brigade. I can move up the tank regiment.
And then rely on 1st mountain, they cant reach 1st mountain from east.
Don't seem them budging the two 11 CV stacks with HQs just to lessen supply, costly affair for little gain.
If attacked they will each go south to the corridor and make any pocket harder
Plenty of ammo

T022 Axis Mius

They can bring about 15 CV a hex atm so with 2 hexes to attack from they should be able to budge 10CV hexes with a good chance
Soviets need to spend movement to get into position to attack from east and looking at the fort levels they are bad troops

quote:

Axis South Commander
Best place to attack is from the inside but displaced two army HQs in the attack so they are all out of HQ range, pushed all the armies to Rostov.
18th army was most north, 37th army in center, and 51st army, 6th army - so that is 4 armies [Bordered in yellow below]
Two mountain divs to the south so threat might come from Rostov.
The line will probably get isolated further where have fuel
Leibstandarte is the weakspot but the divisions inside can be busted out, and have fuel for next turn.

T024 Axis 103RHG

103RHG is being reincarnated to a second life as a combat command. Currently it is being formed up with cavalry, independent German combat regiments and the Slovakian security division that has the ToE of an infantry division as well as the many replacements that Slovakia has to offer. Infantry divisions cannot be assigned to 103RHG, but brigades can be and remain even if they then upgrade to a division.

End of turn 22 and they seem to have reserved most of everything actually
Hardly any airpower over centre/north
No airpower anywhere from the looks of it


quote:

Axis Supreme commander
There are only recon in airbases apart from 4 fighter groups I can see in north
it is looking like free bombing everywhere except one spot in North
in which case North can have any fighters they want to fighter sweep them to death if they want to
only question is sharing out bombers probably south preference if on the offensive for ground support
we should have been hitting all those airbases they had one or two hexes from the front though
Can tell we slowed down

We are leaving our airbases very vulnerable

Unfortunately all they picked up was a repeat of Stalin's speech about tractor production.

Interesting to compare - Stalin was known to be a bad speaker whereas his opponent got to where he was by his speaking skills. Similar in so many ways but so different in this one place.
