So just flipped T8....depressing turn for the soviets and probably game set match.
Either some type of fuel exploit is being used or the Germans as still just to amazingly good logistically. I see 2 fully fueled panzer divisions about 5 hexes from Stalino on T8....as well a back door around the lake panzer attack got all the way to leningrad suburbs.
As I have told the patch team multiple times they have nerfed the soviets way to much and made the germans way to good...told them a year ago when I had a game with the germans having basically taken leningrad, at moscow, and almost to rostov on like Turn 8/9 seems nothing has changed when the german player understands the logistics.
Axis is too strong and almost guaranteed an early win, is what I have been telling people if not so convincingly. There are inherent reasons for that: WITE accurately reflects the strength of Axis and weakness of Soviet in history, but it can't do so with the weakness of Axis, because they were largely strategical oversight and misjudgement, and for us players who have hindsight they are possible if not easy to avoid.
That panzerkorps you are referring to has not engaged in battle since T1 IIRC, and has been sitting idly since T3/4. I gave them a HQBU probably last turn and they are now more than full in terms of fuel. The rail has already passed Nikolaev so not that far from where their HQ used to be anyway. Supply tricks such as Army HQ fuel dumps I no longer use, because they are too strong and not really necessary.
Since Soviet had been generally retreating until T7, I was able to rest at least half of panzers and only keep a few units in the frontline and do all the dirty works.
Below is one of those "workholics". Thankfully, they'll have a break this turn.
