As I hoped, the enemy has launched a concerted infantry assault on Kiev, which is well defended by paratroopers and some of my better rifle divisions. A narrow double envelopment is also being attempted, but a crossing of the Dnepr further south, to bypass Kiev and threaten Kursk-Kharkov-Stalino would cause me more problems.

In any case, the situation south of Dnepropetrovsk is challenging and may force me to fall back all along the Dnepr front next turn. See next post.

This has again been the most active sector. The enemy's dispositions lead me to conclude that he three primary objectives:

1. A drive on Kharkov from the area Dnepropetrovsk, intended to threaten my Dnepr line and force it to fall back. This is likely to succeed, so I have already started to plan the rearward move and industry is being evacuated from Kharkov as a priority.

2. A push toward Stalino/Donbass to prevent the evacuation of the industry there. I have already moved about 50% of my armaments, but there is so much productive capacity in the Stalino-Kharkov region that I may not get it all out in time.

3. A break-in to the Crimea and a push across the Kerch peninsula into the Kuban. I have put what forces I can spare in place to slow this move, but I probably can't completely prevent it. I am gambling on the defenses around Sevastopol acting as a force multiplier and tying down a good portion of the Axis forces, as I don't expect to see the Romanians enter the Crimea in strength - this will be an armoured push. That may just buy me the time to get the Kuban defenses organised, but at the moment they are non-existent.

The key question will be whether the Axis has the stamina and resources to support all three of these thrusts simultaneously, while also pushing toward Moscow and trying to flank Leningrad. I expect to be under real pressure for the next few turns, but I doubt that the enemy can overcome the delays they suffered earlier in the campaign and thus beat the mud turns.

SPECIAL REPORT ON LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN THE MILITARY SITUATION - SOUTHERN FRONT

Prepared by the Red Army Chiefs of Staff for the STAVKA
August, 1941

CURRENT SITUATION

The Fascists have created an opportunity for themselves in the south where they currently threaten the Don-bass and are poised to enter the Crimea with strong mobile forces.

Our reserves are still very limited and we are currently unable to build a sufficiently strong defensive line to ensure the security of Kerch and the Kuban.

Entry into the Kuban by enemy forces appears to constitute a threat to the Caucasus. However, with limited time remaining between now and the Autumn/Winter period, we do not believe that the enemy can actually exploit such a break-in to maximum effect.

OPPORTUNITY

Should the enemy enter the Kuban in strength this late in the campaigning season, and should they extend themselves in an effort to approach either Stalingrad or Maikop, we believe that they will find themselves open to a winter counter-offensive which, if conducted properly, could potentially destroy key formations within AGS.

OUTLINE PLAN OF OPERATIONS

For such an offensive to have maximum impact we need to draw the enemy as far into the Kuban region as possible, via the Crimea, within the next 6 weeks by giving the impression of weakness and panic, while holding the zone Stalino-Rostov against his advance along the north coast of the Sea of Azov. The enemy must be made to feel that we have made a strategic blunder by focusing too much of our defense to the north.

Forces assembling for the winter counter offensive will be formed into two armies centered on Rostov and Novorossiysk. The enemy will be encouraged to advance on Maikop with mobile forces.

On the first blizzard turn, an advance from the region south of Rostov will commence using all available tank and cavalry formations. This will be coordinated with an infantry offensive north and northwest from Novorossiysk.

GOAL

The goal of these operations is to isolate enemy forces in the Kuban within 3 turns and annihilate them by the end of January 1942.

Follow-on operations may then be conducted to recapture the Crimea or relieve other key points, as the situation justifies at that stage.

Signed: Zhukov

Nothing of note occurred in the northern sector this turn.

In the center and south the enemy is attempting a massive double-envelopment of our forces, with a northern pincer directed toward Bryansk and a southern pincer threatening Kharkov. We had predicted these two axes and the need for a pull back from the Dnepr defensive line, and said pull back has now commenced, although enemy air interdiction has hindered the move significantly.

Nevertheless, while we anticipated a broader series of thrusts, including advances toward Vyazma, Stalino and into the Crimea, these have not yet materialised. One possibility is that the enemy is engaging in a deception and that the northern pincer will swing NE toward Moscow, while the southern pincer swings due east toward Stalino and the Don-bass. However, the fact that the enemy has stripped both Crimean entrances of every single blocking unit suggests that the enemy is seriously stretched.

In the south, we have been able to inject four cavalry divisions into the flank of the enemy's advance directly from the Crimea. These should be able to tie down between 8 and 12 enemy formations on the next turn. If the enemy fails to ZOC these units, we can potentially create a serious threat to his lines of communications on Turn 11.

Showing the northern Axis pincer and the Soviet moves required to effect an escape from the threatened pocket. The pull back and reformation of a defensive line in this sector was quite tricky and a few divisions did not make it. Air interdiction was a particular problem on this turn in this sector of the front.

In the south, carnage has been forced to react to my cavalry probe from the Crimea. I have pulled the cavalry formations back to safety, but Carnage will now need to allocate troops to block a repeat of this move.

All industry has now been evacuated from the Stalino area and work on the evacuation of Kharkov is well underway.

No major changes this turn. Work continues on the following tasks:

1. Beefing up the key sectors with reserves as they arrive by train.

2. Evacuating industry, primarily in the south, where the enemy appears to have concentrated the bulk of their mobile forces.

3. Building SU attachments - a mix of engineer, artillery, AT and Tank at the moment.

4. Reorganizing the Soviet Air Force with a special focus on upgrading my transports and moving VVS units closer to the front line, as well as adding modern fighters and every available IL2 to the force mix.

5. Making senior appointment changes whenever AP totals permit.

Not a lot happened on Turn 14, which explains the massive effort by the Axis on Turn 15.

Another double envelopment was attempted but the pincers were arguably too far apart. Whether or not the effort was too ambitious can't be judged until next turn - it depends on whether the Axis forces have the supply and stamina for another pincer move.

Some industry was lost in the center, although the bulk of it had been evacuated. Rostov is cleaned out, Voronezh about 40% and the evacuation of Tula has commenced.

Not a huge amount of movement this turn.

Carnage is mopping up the stragglers but I still have stay-behinds in most of the cities he has bypassed, so those should delay much of his infantry for another turn.

A major assault on Sevastopol is underway and I am curious to see whether he continues his southern advance or switches the effort elsewhere. A big Axis drive in the south may create good opportunities for me come the blizzard.

Patched to Beta 1.05.18. I have no idea what effects that will have overall, but as I have read that things such as the Lvov pocket (a-historical c**p, IMO) have not changed, I don't anticipate a tremendous difference.

SUMMARY OF A CURRENT APPRECIATION OF THE MILITARY SITUATION

Prepared by the Red Army Chiefs of Staff for the STAVKA

09 October, 1941

OVERVIEW OF CURRENT SITUATION

The enemy has shown improved focus and coordination, effecting aggressive operations in the south to seize the Don-bass and threaten Tula, Voronezh and Rostov. In the north and centre, enemy progress has been much more limited.

LAND FORCES AND OPERATIONS

North

We continue to defend Leningrad with concentric lines of entrenchments in great depth. Novgorod has fallen, but the feared 'right hook' has failed to develop, most likely as a result of all enemy armoured forces being diverted to AGS.

Center

The enemy has seized Vyazma before the arrival of the mud, meaning that a winter push on Moscow is a real possibility. Events in the south must not be allowed to distract us from the strategic imperative of securing the capitol.

South

The enemy has continued to exploit the strategic surprise achieved in this sector with thrusts to the extreme south and into the Crimea. As predicted, he now appears to be at risk of becoming over-extended and he may be vulnerable to a counter-offensive on the flank of his southern salient, even in the event of a breakthrough into the northern Caucasus region. Planning for such an eventuality has commenced, being assigned the temporary code name 'Operation Moon'.

AIR FORCES AND OPERATIONS

Our air force continues to conduct only limited operations, primarily resupply and partisan supply.

NAVAL FORCES AND OPERATIONS

Aside from mine warfare, no naval operations have been conducted during the period.

INDUSTRIAL

The enemy's accelerated southern advance has captured some portions of our industry, but evacuation was already well underway in most cases, the rejuvenation of our productive capacity in the east should be assured.

INTELLIGENCE

We currently have very limited intelligence on enemy intentions and dispositions. Air reconnaissance is not yet effective.

PARTISAN OPERATIONS

Partisan operations have commenced at several points behind AGC, facilitated by the concentration of all available Red Air Force VVS units in the Moscow area.

ENEMY CAPABILITIES AND LIKELY INTENTIONS

Prisoner interrogations indicate that the enemy's armoured forces are suffering from supply shortages and the effects of attrition. However, they will resupply and refit during the Rasputitsa and are likely to be deployed in one of two modes:

A. A pincer movement directed at Moscow.

B. A southern thrust that may either swing north towards Moscow (least likely route) or south to cut off the Kuban (most likely route). A drive on Stalingrad is also possible, but this would almost certainly be suicidal.

PROJECTED SITUATION +4 WEEKS

North

Leningrad and environs will continue to hold.

Center

Moscow will be under severe threat of encirclement (40% probability).

South

The Kuban and northern Caucasus will have fallen (80% probability).

LONG TERM PROJECTIONS +20 WEEKS

Our winter counter offensive will have trapped significant Axis forces in the south, or forced them back to the west of Rostov at a minimum. Smaller gains in the center will have eased the pressure on Moscow.

Signed: Zhukov
