Status: offline 		I did some screenshot grabs of the numbers of aircraft groups by type and got the following numbers:
84 U-2's, 638 DB-3B's, 710 IL-4's, 150 PE-2's, 1463 SB-2's, 220 TB-3's, and 367 U-2VS's.

So it's looking like I ought to use the SB-2's to help feed the partisans.

Status: offline 		Some reinforcements appeared near Leningrad so I'm using them to set up a defensive screen along the Luga River. It's not going to
stop anybody seriously contesting it however. I'm assigning them to the 27th Army for which I bought 2 RR construction Brigades to help with the digging.

Status: offline 		fanfarer is a real pocket player, so Larry and I have to stay focused on defensive depth. This latest turn has the pocket at Zhitomir that does not look particularly hard to break. We want to try to keep Leningrad fighting for a while, so we'll need to keep that area well covered.

Status: offline 		We moved 8 arms factories from Vsevolzhsky, 7 from Leningrad and 2 from Kiev to Molotov. We also moved 1 T-50 factory from Leningrad to Sverdlovsk. We'll look to pull another 15 arms out next week as well.

We added 30th Army to the rolls and sent them off to Leningrad to aid in the city defense. A good number of units in the area were set to refit.

We also escaped out of one loose pocket near Kiev. Looks like fuel is an issue for some of his fast moving divisions. Most of our stuff is out of the Pripet Marshes. The Axis is up to the Dnepr in the center. In the area of Southwestern and Southern Fronts, I need to start reorganizing divisons somewhat.

Air forces for the southern regions are adequate for future operations.

One thing about this joint game, Larry and I have the understanding that he can take the game and run solo with it any time he feels the desire. I'm hoping that may not happen too soon, as I'd hate to get fired like Pavlov did.

Status: offline 		I did a sort on Morale in the leaders tab and got a list of the Soviet leaders who need to be replaced because they have low morale.

EDIT: Except for the Rifle Corps. Those are going away via the game engine disbanding. Several each turn are kicking the bucket.

Status: offline 		Here's something I found to be disturbing. There's a boat-load of airbases that don't have any airplanes on them. Either I have too many airbases and can disband some ( the SAD air bases ) or I should let the natural expansion of the fleet fill the air bases as the new
airplanes are built.

Status: offline 		Some Armament points and Heavy Industry got trapped at Odessa and it's gone now, but there's some industry nearby that needs to
be moved pretty soon. I don't know what the evacuation plan has to say about what gets moved when but I'm hoping these two cities
are pretty soon.

Status: offline 		I just discovered another reason to get rid of those air bases that are empty. They take up about 5100 men apiece. Each. So those SAD airbases that are going to be disbanded eventually anyway should probably go pretty soon. Those air bases are just about as
big as a regiment so moving the men from those disbanded air bases should supply a significant portion of the reinforcements
available for at least a turn or so.

story is that I don't need any unemployed HQ's anytime soon.

Moscow to build some front lines to the SW of Moscow. I gotta remember to do that in turn 4.

Status: offline 		Somehow when I created the shell turn 1 for Far to start this game I had the game settings on "easy" which means that only 80% of production is the max for both sides.  So it looks like we're going to restart this game and use the game settings for "normal" or 100%.

Status: offline 		I moved all the planes to NR and set the support level to 0 for the Armies and Corps so the SU's will flow to STAVKA.  Also, I was
checking the HQ's just now ( after setting them to 0 support level ) and I noticed that Kiev M.D. has the most SU's so I investigated
and it seems that Kiev has just about enough Howitzers to give each of it's 7 Forts 2 howitzers each. That ought to stiffen up the
forts a little. I don't remember anybody's AAR mentioning giving howitzers to his forts and what the results were. So this is an
experiment. Just to see what the combat results are. I think maybe the Soviet Union can afford some guns.

Status: offline 		This is the 16th Fort which belongs to the Kiev M.D. and this is the pick list to assign some SU's to the forts. I'm thinking of giving the
16th two of the 41c Regimental Arty tubes.

EDIT: I came to my senses just now. I'm playing a multiplayer game larry. Kiev is M60A3TTS's domain. So I'll leave the issue to M60.

Status: offline 		None of these Soviet units will stop the Axis or even slow them down all that much but it's better than nothiing. I've formed two lines
here hoping to soak up most of the MP's of the Axis units hopefully.

Status: offline 		There's a lot of Russian units that can't move this turn but I've tried to form a sort of screen around the possible routes Far is going to
take to get to Smolensk / Moscow. Maybe I'll have enough people next turn for a second line behind this first one.

Probably not. But at least it's a lot more than the Axis units are getting.

Status: offline 		Even though 50,000 trucks were mobilized this turn there's still a shortage of trucks so movement will be slower than otherwise. One
more thing to hamper the Soviets. But we'll get through this phase in about 10 turns or so.
