You may notice that a little more than half of the stukas made it out and back.  The Soviet air defenses were fearce in the Leningrad area and in hindsight I probably should have sent some fighter escorts.


May also be the AA bug at work; ships seem way over-powered in terms of AA at the moment.


Yeah but I'm beta testing the 3.0.0.17g version which supposedly has fixed the AA bug. So I'm guessing that it's the Soviet fighters at work here. I could be wrong of course.

I'm not sure. I'm hotseating this FitE game. But I'm pretty sure that's one of the things we're gonna test.

Status: offline 		In the Leningrad area, the idea was to defend along the river since it offered a defensive advantage but now the Axis is across the river and there's no longer any reason to defend there, so the Soviet dude is thinking about pulling his some of his units back during the cease fire to more defensable positions, to the entrenched area, where the supply is better, where the lines will be shorter, where the artillery can be concentrated more, etc. :
