T05 AGC 2nd PG:

XXXXVI Mot Corps expands its bridgehead over the Dnepr River and then crosses south of Zhlobin and captures Gomel on the march. XII Corps secures the western bank of the Dnepr while helping pocket two Soviet divisions still on the west side of the river. XXIV Mot Corps captures Mogilev and crosses the Dnepr River. XXXXVII Mot Corps penetrates the Soviet land bridge defenses to a depth of 30 miles.

T05 AGS 1st PG:

XIV Mot Corps completes the northern, pockets another Soviet division and advances to the outskirts of Berdichev. III Mot Corps captures the area around Kalinovka and forms a pocket there. XXXXVIII Mot Corps is heading southeast to help on the drive on Odessa. The two infantry corps (XXIX and LI) move up to help eliminate that new pockets next turn.

T05 AGN Rail:

Unfortunately I can no longer capture ready rails so the 1st PG FBD is going to be busy this game. But there is a pretty good rail net already formed from Riga throughout the Baltic States. I create a depot at Valmiera for the air base there.

T05 AGC Rail:

I create depots at Pukhovichi and Bobruisk to support the 2nd PG and 2nd Army. The 3rd PG FBD has switched over to the double rail leading to Polotsk and created a depot at Krivichi.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/20/2021 6:08:19 PM)

T05 AGS Rail:

The Hungarian VIII Corps moves up near Brest Litovsk to start working on the double rail going southeast from there. The Rumanian FBD is working its way north towards Proskurov. The 1st PG FBD continues working the double rail to Proskurov from Lvov putting Tanopol now on the rail net.

T05 Cleanup:

I air supply Nadiymanske, Proskurov, Gomel, and Ostrov. I build some more Hungarian and Rumanian garrison depots. I handle the Reserves. This turn I got a large number of LW Light Flak units. I only put three of them on REFIT figuring there is probably a shortage of equipment for them. I have already moved up the HQs.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/20/2021 8:33:00 PM)

I just thought of it and double checked but this is the first game I have played in a loooonnnnggg time that von Manstein has not died by turn 5. He is still alive! In fact I have not lost a single leader at all. Very unusual for me.



carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:07:54 PM)

T06 OOB:

Soviets have bounced back up to 3.3M. This is going the wrong way! All branches of the Soviet Union (manpower, guns, afvs, and aircraft) are definitely increasing faster than I can destroy them. Hopefully this is just their activation bounces and not a long term trend.

T06 Ground Losses:

The simple explanation is that I only knocked off 112K last turn. I need to increase that and keep it above 200K a turn to keep the Soviets below 3M.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:08:44 PM)

T06 Air Losses:

It does seem that the loss ratio stays about 3:1 with the AI Air Assist. Last turn's naval patrol directive has helped increase the Axis losses.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:09:11 PM)

T06 Production:

Overall a good situation except that the pool is under 9K and the repair is over 34K now.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:09:36 PM)

T06 Soviet Attacks:

There were no Soviet attacks of any kind.

T06 Freight:

The freight situation is keeping good at +11K and everyone getting more than needed.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:09:59 PM)

T06 Trucks:

52K unit trucks used this turn is only a slight increase over last turns amount.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:11:48 PM)

T06 Supply Net North:

All of the supplies are now being routed through new depots. Note that Parnu is routing supplies that came in by rail not by sea. So Parnu is connected to the rail net already. That bodes well for 18th Army supply. I am changing my strategy and building new depots on the furthest dot on the rail that I make it to. I will allow that a railyard > 2 will be the depot instead. This will cut down the use of trucks without being as many depots as I have build in the past.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:12:22 PM)

T06 Supply Net South:

Tarnopol is definitely online and going strong as a supply depot now. I balance the depots - those that supply combat units are set to 4 the others are reduced to 1 if they are far to the rear or 3 if there are nearby airbases. Ports are always at 3 if they import supplies or 1 if they export. I have also reduced Warsaw from 4 to 1 as the start of my 'pulse' tactic.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:12:53 PM)

T06 Air Phase:

AGN and AGC have advanced pretty far from the bomber bases. The other AOGs on ADVANCE have advanced along with the armies they are following as the supply net has improved. I set the rest of the AOGs in Luftflottes 1 and 2 to ADVANCE to keep them up with the front troops and decrease the range to the targets. Everything looks good in the Air Directives (other than the SUPERIORITY Directives) and the air losses are low.

T06 AGS Rumanians and 11th Army:

3rd Rumanian Army continues to collapse the pocket and force trapped Soviet units to surrender. One 11th Army Corps isolates Odessa by land while there is an attempt to force a hole in the Soviet defenses to allow a panzer thrust and cut off the main line north of Odessa.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:13:38 PM)

T06 AGS Hungarians:

An attempt to finish off the pocketed Soviets fails as the last division retreats away.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:14:02 PM)

T06 AGS 17th Army:

The XXXXIX Mnt Corps collapses the southern pocket to a single remaining stack. LII Corps is as successful with the center pocket leaving a single stack there too. IV Corps is more successful wiping out the two northern pockets and continuing their advance towards Vinnitsa.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:15:29 PM)

T06 AGC 9th Army:

The 9th Army has begun to relieve 3rd PG from having to hold the front line and freeing it up for maneuvering again. The VI Corps improves on that by opening up some holes to the south of the land bridge for possible panzer breakthroughs.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:17:00 PM)

T06 AGN 2nd Army:

2nd Army begins to insert itself in between the AGN 16th Army and AGC 9th Army. The third corps is brought up to Polotsk area for deployment next turn.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:17:36 PM)

T06 AGN 16th Army:

The army begins to shift to the north as it is relieved by 2nd Army. It also eliminates the two pockets from last turn and is beginning to surround Pskov.

A breakthrough surrounding Pskov and advancing along the road and rail leading towards Luga.

carlkay58 -> RE: Another March to the East (5/21/2021 12:19:57 PM)

T06 AGC 3rd PG:

The land bridge is now pocketed by 3rd PG. There are an estimated 10+ Soviet divisions in the pocket with 9th Army already present to eliminate the pocket next turn.
