ORIGINAL: MattFL Man, a powerful panzer division parked in a swamp east of the Polis just south of an SS MOT Division broken down into regiments seemingly on the defensive on Turn 6...………… Seems HJ has squandered his breakthrough a few turns ago. Guderian just turned over in his grave I think. It wasn´t a planned breakthrough is the main problem in the North, I was going to move those units to the Center, but thought it was worthwhile to clear the river lines South of lake Ilmen instead with them. Perhaps not, but opportunism is the hallmark of good GHC play in the first 10 turns.... You took the opportunity to force the breakthrough and I think should have followed up much more aggressively with a direct drive on Lenningrad rather than ever mess about south of the Ilmen. Once you sent the units there the turn you broke through rather than directing everything more north, you've been mired there for what seems like several turns while the Russians get stronger in front of Lenningrad. Anyway, just the view of a Monday morning quarterback.... I don't recall the intel I could see anymore, but if the direct route was open, or looked open, I would have gone that way. As to the inf they mostly went the direct route, as fast as they could.
