Thanks to sPzAbt653 and TP00 for all their hard work on D21.

EDIT: adjusted the url to point to the 29NOV2009 version of Directive 21 package.

Status: offline 		I've put together a 'movie' of the moves in turn 11 into one large file so that the entire front lines and all the movement of everything can be seen in one picture.  You can find this bad boy at this url:

http://www.mediafire.com/?fwo13yg0nrz

By the way it's named figure 295 because I'm including pictures like this one in my super detailed AAR.  They are html documents to be opened in your browser and some of them include movies, real movies, and if you're not following the documents you're really missing out.  You can find all the documents in this thread:

http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2295777

enjoy.

Status: offline 		Hey you guys....sorry to bring you bad news but it just seemed to me to be a duplicate of information published elsewhere to be doing an AAR here and a super-detailed AAR elsewhere so I've decided to save Matrix Games some disk space and just continue the super detailed AAR and discontinue this one.  Hope you don't have heartburn about this decision but it'll save me a lot of time and MG a lot of disk space.  Well, maybe a little disk space.  Thanks for your interest in this project.

Here's a picture of a couple of breakthroughs I made near Smolensk.

Status: offline 		I have pushed further north than I originally intended and am toying with the idea to go ahead and grab all the territory up there if the supply situation improves enough to enable such an idea. OR I thought maybe I can just bust some bridges leading out of Leningrad to that area and letting it go at that. I haven't made up my mind about which to do so maybe I'll do both. I would appreciate some ideas you guys have that bear on this situation or any other, that you guys might have.

EDIT: I'm assuming that Elmer won't repair the bridges after I bust them. An assumption that might not be true.

I quite agree. The problem is that the supply situation in that area is really poor and I don't wish to engage major Soviet units with a disadvantage. But if the supply situation improves, as I expect that it eventually will, then YES....that would be a great idea.

I've seen the Soviet dude ( Elmer ) move units in and out of that area so I'm pretty sure there is at least one Soviet unit of unknown strength in there somewhere.

Again, I agree. And the supply situation isn't the best it could be yet. 39 per hex is the best that can be gotten so far and 19 per hex isn't all that bad but 9 per hex isn't quite enough for the combat(s) that I envision for my units. If he has a better supply situation than I do I either have to destroy his units quickly and then go on the defensive ( which I don't expect I can do ) or just don't go into there with my units yet, which is what I've been doing.

Thanks for the advice. And thanks for keeping up with this AAR. I expect you may be the only one. LOL

I'll have to look into the number of units and reply with the number after I'm thru with my turn 17 of August Fog.  Stay tuned.

Status: offline 		The supply situation is so poor in the Murmansk area that I'm afraid I may not be able to make any more attacks for a long time if ever. I'm thinking that Elmer will attack me, push me back, and destroy all the units up there. Not much I can do about it either. Maybe I shouldn't have pushed so hard to get where I am now.

Another possible option is that Elmer tried to move it, and it suffered the dreaded 'disengagement' attack, and the result was evaporation.

And anyone not having D21 and wanting to play it will, naturally, download the latest version.  So accordingly, I need to do this AAR on the latest version to represent the actual gameplay that people will experience.  Which means that I need to start over and use the newer version.  So that's what I will do if that's okay with you guys.  Or even if it's not.  So stay tuned for turn 1

Status: offline 		Hey guys. I'm looking at all these files in the Directive 21 zip file. Where does the .dll file go? I think the .eqp file goes into Graphics with it's own folder with the exact same name as the .SCE file right? Do the graphics files go into this same directory? This is all new to me.

Lemme know if you want more detail in the html AAR document and I'll include it as well.  Happy holidays everybody.

Hey...let's go for the gold. All of the above. Why not? Either that or play it by ear. I plan on destroying all the Soviet units I can get next to. I figure I might last longer that way. LOL.
