BrianG -> RE: 56 (3/12/2021 11:26:00 PM)

It took 3 attacks to get this miracle win here.

BrianG -> Baku airbase (3/12/2021 11:30:49 PM)

The Baku airbase did not unfreeze.

I thought rule was unfreeze if supplied German unit within 10 hexes.

BrianG -> saratov (3/12/2021 11:32:46 PM)

Since the Guards Cav in Saratov retreated west, i think we were still in beta just prior to retreat rule change.

BrianG -> RE: 56 (3/12/2021 11:37:36 PM)

Baku final

I do my best to secure whats left of the gap.

You can see mountain unit on rr heading east.

I have very low troop movement rr capacity as i had tried to increase supply to get better fuel. In the reserve button, i took the 10% up to like 50% and then had to immediately lower. the cost in ap's absolutely hurt.

Perfectly wrong timing as i had about 30K in troop transport and then it dropped to about 5K capacity. thus I could not evac the far west in time.

BrianG -> t57 RR capacity (3/12/2021 11:39:16 PM)

so at 26% reserve, my troop capacity was 5K.

Just bad and Stalin should be ashamed he did not get the whip out.

BrianG -> t57 action (3/14/2021 1:31:35 AM)

Infantry in the front row still fight for survival.

BrianG -> RE: t57 action (3/14/2021 1:34:10 AM)

another example and LOSS

where German reserve comes from affiliated corp which had no companions in the main battle.

BrianG -> RE: 57 final (3/14/2021 1:40:09 AM)

South Saratov final.

B/c Astrakhan is so far away mp's wise, his flank here has no worries no concerns.

BrianG -> RE: 57 final (3/14/2021 1:49:20 AM)

South final

The train line remains open for troops retreating from the far west and Crimea which is being evacuated.

But 2 issues.

train capacity is so low, and the trip from there takes 2 weeks on the train. Some must also do a ship transport.

If I had my (prior to adjust to supply reserve) 25K troop transport, I would have had a better chance.

I'm also using naval evac. It's orderly but I need more time, more capacity and I need to keep open the train line.

Also, as i am losing so many troops my AP points each turn are reduced and using them it a delicate balance of needs.

I will learn another lesson about the map very soon. I start to lower the reserve amount, as tank fuel supply never improved.

BrianG -> 58 action (3/15/2021 11:44:28 PM)

So this mountain attack was very upsetting. His mountain unit is so far from supply.

Anyhow, now my rr is cut off.

BrianG -> RE: 58 action (3/15/2021 11:45:45 PM)

So it seems that defensive reserve can commit thru zoc's.

That's how i read this battle.

BrianG -> RE: 58 action (3/15/2021 11:47:26 PM)

a success but will lose more units.

That should be the saying for this war. "he will loss more units"

BrianG -> 59 (4/25/2021 6:09:04 PM)

north attack takes rough hex. 2 attacks needed.

[image]local://upfiles/41373/E6DBDBD2890B4B7382039CF9D87921A5.jpg[/image]



BrianG -> t59 (4/25/2021 6:12:33 PM)

THIS IS THE ATTACK WHICH SUMS UP War 1.

so few German tanks killed , desperate Russian situation, as far away from the Reich as tanks can be, bounded by the sea and rough terrain. 1500 artillery tubes.

the 3 German tanks probable got stuck on some bad road rut and are now waiting for a tow.

Not pretty

BrianG -> 59 (4/25/2021 6:17:26 PM)

attack on Panzers in middle.
Now I do hope the German armor which reserve activated has zero MP's next turn.

I thought I read that rule somewhere.
