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






Mine are not close but i think its 50

I got one at 47, but that is only for games where you play either mild blizzard or no Soviet +1. And it's not automatic, you just have to wait for the die roll.




BrianG -> cliffhanger reavealed (4/1/2018 3:35:00 PM)

Victory, sent them back over the river.

Moscow saved at least 1 extra week.

BrianG -> geman bombers (4/1/2018 3:36:27 PM)

I have been getting good kills on German unescorted defensive bombers when I ground attack




BrianG -> Tula area (4/1/2018 3:38:26 PM)

I still need space to get industry out of Tula.

I figure the armor here is 4 units and thus follow on attack not likely.

I put zoc pressure on river crossing

BrianG -> RE: final positions (4/1/2018 3:40:41 PM)

He will get over river easy next turn.

I did not have strength to attack the cv46.

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.


Too many darn Communist cheerleaders in WITE ;-) Where are all the German ones at? Or at least that is what it seems like to me.

Yes, Daves Air settings are not correct :(

Maybe a "pyrrhic victory"

The one hex doesn't give you a week imo. The 4 defense is easily moved & pretty much 100% routed out to be lost a few turns to recover. The attacks leave the Soviets more vulnerable and easier to retreat more so than the Germans on the next round(s) of attacks. It is a cycle the Soviets are destined to lose. Your one ally, time, is helping you though. But if I were the Germans I would continue to attack with infantry during the mud around Moscow which can be done pretty easy but I have seen few do it.

I like the germans too, but i feel like in 41 the russians need the motivation. When we're in 43-44 thats when i say GO DEUTSCHLAND and repel the communist hordes. Its all a matter of persepective [:)]

Thanks.

It's mild blizzard in my game. Just reached 42 victories with the top army. Couple of more turns probably then





ericv -> RE: 14 (4/3/2018 6:10:25 PM)

You probably already know this: if you evacuate the Mig3 factories, they will convert to Il-2 on 1-1-42.

I evacuated 20, and got 2 extra Il-2 factories. So evacuating 2 (1 of each batch) will probably be enough.

BrianG -> 15 (4/5/2018 11:49:01 AM)

first German crack at the Crimea

BrianG -> RE: 15 (4/5/2018 11:50:06 AM)

South open

German go south but run into river line which slows down a potentially good attack

BrianG -> RE: 15 MOSCOW (4/5/2018 11:53:12 AM)

Moscow is cut off. Limited supply will get through but the rr is fully cut.

7 vehicles production have been lost and I let that night dive bomber production get destroyed.

BrianG -> RE: 15 MOSCOW (4/5/2018 11:54:37 AM)

In response the main german rr is cut.

unfortunately the line only ended 2 hexes further east.

not to bad




BrianG -> RE: 15 MOSCOW (4/6/2018 1:36:35 AM)

counter attack north of Moscow.

9 divisions versus 1 division

Should help the win loss record

BrianG -> RE: 15 MOSCOW (4/6/2018 1:38:07 AM)

south of Moscow I try some flank relief.

I lost this battle but shot down 20 german bombers. Again unescorted.

BrianG -> RE: 15 MOSCOW (4/6/2018 1:39:20 AM)

This is a bad attack. Both sides had reserve activation

BrianG -> RE: 15 MOSCOW (4/6/2018 1:40:11 AM)

South Stalino

This was a good attack

BrianG -> 15 final (4/6/2018 1:41:16 AM)

Tula. I pull back. Only 2 more clear turns. No reason to give up a big surround this late.

[image]local://upfiles/41373/763685F1D7724FB6AFFEF1144895CE13.jpg[/image]




BrianG -> RE: 15 final (4/6/2018 1:42:20 AM)

ditto further south.

BrianG -> RE: 15 final (4/6/2018 1:43:33 AM)

and Moscow. Pocket will be resealed but that's it. No big loss of troops.

You are years ahead of the curve in comparison to the sillyflower game.
