Hi
Trying to follow suite with regards to your placement of depots to try get my supply back in the green but seem to be getting it wrong I even basically copied some of your screen shots, hope you don't mind.

I just don't get it, are all your depots you put on the map level 4 or are the depots closest to the front level 4 only.

I am in good position here in my game to get past the first year but my supply losses are killing my chances.




carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/30/2021 12:08:48 AM)

At the start of the turn I turn on depots ('n' key) and the supply lines ('8' key) to give the red lines. Any depot that traces a line to a front line unit is set to priority 4. Any depot that traces a line to a rear unit or airbase is set to 3. If an airbase is in the same hex it is set to 3. Any pre-war depot is set to 1. Any post war depot is set to 2.

I then handle the large railyard depots differently. These typically include Warsaw, Minsk, Smolensk, Kiev, Dneprotovsk, etc. If the depot has > 40K freight (depending on which one we are talking about) then I set it to 1 to push the freight eastwards. If it is < 5K freight I set it to priority 4 to fill back up again. This will cause the eastward depots to draw it down without having to pull freight from further west and put more strain on the rail net. This is the 'pulse' techniques that has been brought up in several places.

T13 OOB:

The Soviets stubbornly remain over 3.2M. I am losing the battle this time. Axis aircraft is keeping fairly steady at 2.6K and Soviet AFVs are down to 4.8K.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/31/2021 9:31:19 PM)

T13 Ground Losses:

Only 80K losses for the Soviets last turn. I have not been producing the pockets needed to keep the Soviet manpower down.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/31/2021 9:31:41 PM)

T13 Air Losses:

The AI Air Assist has been able to keep the 4:1 loss ratio pretty steady. But 201 air combat losses are probably my fault as I have not been toggling the Ground Support button on and off.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/31/2021 9:32:37 PM)

T13 Soviet Attacks:

The lone Soviet attack is bombing Gomel. The Soviets have been fairly passive this game with few ground attacks. This may be part of why I am having problems pocketing enough to keep the losses up. Or it could be that I suck.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/31/2021 9:32:58 PM)

T13 Freight:

The supplies needed and received are about the same. The PGs are well supplied the infantry armies are not.
