Status: offline 		I got an early turn ending in turn 3 ( only two combat rounds ) so I didn't destroy all that much of the Soviet stuff.  I figure I destroyed 19 Soviet units:  15 land combat units and 4 tank divisions.  I still have no earthly idea what the Soviet losses are squad-wise and we'll have to wait for Curt to post something before we'll know I suppose.

Status: offline 		I found most of my units tired and decided to make do with only three combat rounds this turn. I calculated that I destroyed 26 Soviet units this turn: 22 inf types, 1 armoured division, and 3 arty pieces. I instituted a program of bridge busting since the Soviet airforce has regained some of it's shock ( 75 now ) and the losses I would sustain from attacking them would be nearly 1 for 1. I neglected to keep track of which bridges I attacked and which ones were dropped in the water but I'm guessing maybe two out of the 16 or so attacks were successful each round resulting in maybe 6 bridges busted this turn(?). Here's the minimovie showing the moves from turns 1 throu 4:

Status: offline 		One interesting point is Curt defense of Riga. I notice right away that he's got arty stacked with really good defenders ( except for in the middle with an AA unit ) and the Armour division in Riga itself. I thought it best to try to use the Panzers to persuade him to leave the city. I haven't built up the rail lines near enough to use the RailRoad arty the Germans are known to have and I don't have any arty to speak of near Riga to help out so I'll have to ship some in by rail really quick if I'm to have any hope at all of taking the city without massive losses.

Status: offline 		Here's something interesting that happened early in turn 5; I was analysing the Riga defense and noticed that there was a hex that only had an AA unit and some arty. The arty unit was entrenched and had lots of guns ( 13 strength ) and I really needed to unentrench it somehow before I could hope to have a successful assault and just on the off chance that it might work I asked an AT unit to move into that hex and wonder of wonders, I got a retreat before combat result and both the AA unit and the arty retreated into the adjacent hex.
The arty is now unable to fire and I have set up the attack on the Armour unit in Riga itself. That will probably never happen again during this game.

Status: offline 		Another thing interesting this turn is that I have surrounded Minsk. There is some major Soviet arty there though so I'm going to have to get some tanks to unentrench it before I can seriously assault the place. Either that or bring in some major arty myself. Trouble is, my arty is busy elsewhere at the moment.

Status: offline 		In turn 5 round 2 the results of the combat at Riga were the complete destruction of the armoured unit defending in Riga itself and I moved a panzer unit up and dislodged the arty unit sitting to the NE of Riga so now there is no Soviet arty support. Now I'll try to move the stack with the Soviet pontoon unit in it so that I can get a surround on the stack with the cavalry unit in it. Then in round three I'll attempt to liquidate the stack with the calvary unit in it completely. Riga now has an Axis supply point in it....that's handy for the Axis units near Riga. Now if only I could get some of that supply to the eastern side of the river.

Status: offline 		From careful calculation I figure that I destroyed 24 Soviet units in turn 5: 17 inf types, 2 armour divisions, and 5 guns. Now I'll start a series of images to show a close-up of the moves starting at the northernmost sector and working my way south. First the north sector: [ please note the capture of Riga and Daugavpils ]
