SparkleyTits -> RE: turn 12 Sept 41 (3/28/2018 9:01:03 PM)

The routed guards promotion is a great little bit of flavour [:D]

Hopefully lady luck is on your side with Moscow comrade you will need her in the coming weeks!




ericv -> RE: turn 12 Sept 41 (3/28/2018 10:27:05 PM)

Hopefully the weather forecast is correct.




HardLuckYetAgain -> RE: turn 12 Sept 41 (3/29/2018 4:30:23 PM)

If Dave decides to enlarge the Jaws of the Attack this could get interesting fast. Since it seems we have a plethora of Soviet supporters I will have to go with "Go Germans!" ;-). Nothing makes a more serene scene than Moscow burning during a snow storm!! :) Ahhhhhh, tranquility.

(all kidding aside good luck Brian)





BrianG -> 13 (3/30/2018 1:42:28 AM)

small german push south of Moscow. Obviously building up supply and concentrating troops.

If I recall I knew whereabouts of 22/23 mech armor

I counterattack

BrianG -> RE: 13 (3/30/2018 1:43:36 AM)

Further south I rout a Rumanian

BrianG -> RE: 13 (3/30/2018 1:45:12 AM)

and counterattack north of Moscow. Surprised I have not been pushed back to the Canal river line north of Moscow,

BrianG -> RE: 13 (3/30/2018 1:46:33 AM)

end Stalino

I am doing ok getting industry out. Mud helped.

BrianG -> RE: 13 (3/30/2018 1:47:39 AM)

end Moscow

Looking tuff ahead. Those clear hexes south of Moscow seem indefensible.

BrianG -> RE: 13 (3/30/2018 1:48:54 AM)

final north

no armor up here from what I can tell

[image]local://upfiles/41373/63B648A93ADE460F9F83B9EE36A3F30D.jpg[/image]




BrianG -> 14 (3/31/2018 1:40:02 AM)

German launch attack north of Stalino. I believe lower part of that map was mud.

Trapping 2 nice units.

BrianG -> RE: 14 (3/31/2018 1:42:21 AM)

South of Tula Germans launch tank attack with one of his missing tank corp.

He pulls back from the breach to hold the bridgehead. Tula had industry at risk.

BrianG -> RE: 14 (3/31/2018 1:45:37 AM)

Moscow open

Recon and widening his avenue of axis. He breaches river south of Moscow.

And one north of Moscow.

Seems to have been done with ease.

The 46 AND 55 cv must be thrown back!

BrianG -> RE: 14 (3/31/2018 1:53:01 AM)

and the North

No tanks no worries

The combat value 46 is doable. The 55 combat value is almost at the threshold of not being able to be moved. Really depends on a number of factors on the 55 CV one. But this is where the Germans have nice reserves set up to thwart any Soviet offense. From the looks of it Dave may just be doing just that :)

Two Moto division in the North would WRECK your day here :). Good thing he doesn't have those here either ;-P. I try and keep little things like that around just for opportunities like this. Good luck in the North, so far so good :)




BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:15:46 AM)

Petrov good general. Somehow he showed up. Never saw him in earlier games.

I will attempt to isolate the northern breach

BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:17:23 AM)

Gb rgt pushed back.

Mostly for fun

BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:19:28 AM)

Stalin demands report from the south while he still has his Moscow bunker.

He is proud how many different armies took part in this attack. All racing to become the first guards army.

BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:20:35 AM)

and he loves when we whip the SS

BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:22:10 AM)

south

I did not play this attack correct. But the lack of attention toward Stalino is another day of industry out. Plus now Tula is threatened.




BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:23:17 AM)

South Moscow

I need to attack from three sides and was able to move the lower hex.

BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:24:41 AM)

This was the 3rd soak off attack to drain supply.

Ouch!

BrianG -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 4:26:19 AM)

My attack lineup to clear the hex.

Many of these are good units brought to Moscow 2 months ago.

Just for this moment.[;)]

TheLysander -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 8:44:04 AM)

Nice AAR. It's always satisfying beating back a panzer/mot division and even more so an SS division. Hold on comrade, the fascists will not take the city.




ericv -> RE: 14 (4/1/2018 12:56:09 PM)

How many victories does an Army need to become Guard Army? In the manual it says 75, but I vaguely remember 25 once in a patch somewhere.

In my current game I have 11 Armies with 25+ victories and 3 with 30+. No Guards yet
