German numbers vs "real" numbers - well, one thing is ofc that that differs is that my troops have not really lost alot of troops attacking throughout -42, as the Axis did irl. And tbh was it not after -42 the German divisions were divided further, so that the loss of my 20 divisions should actually be closer to 400-500k?

The mud is still here, so we do nothing but dig. Can anyone tell me if mud affects the digging rate of my units? It seems they dig slower now, but it might just be me that is anxious to get the new lines finished...

Terje


Hi Terje,

I was purposly using RL OOB numbers pre the start of Fall Blau, compared to ur numbers on page 8 i think 16 july OOB so pretty close to that date. Obvious there were some fighting before in the spring like 2nd Kharkov and so on, but u did also make attacks in that pre july periode. Ofc one can debate if on same scale.

In mud u build at 1/4 pace of clear IIRC.

Hope it helps,

Rasmus

Overall
In the word of House Stark - Winter is coming...
Not much for us to do but keep digging, remove some forts and reduce the length of the front by one hex by falling back one hex in a few positions. 2 new forts are added to the map, while we disband 7 that were built too optimistically.

Losses
USSR : 59.000 troops, 516 guns, 23 AFVs, 80 AC.
Axis : 16.000 troops, 70 guns, 10 AFVs, 5 AC.

Pools
Manpower : 279.904
Vehicles : 253.289
Armaments : 239.113
Hiwi : 81

Pest control
We deal swiftly with both partisan units that appear.

Stalin - Hitler correspondence
Oloren's mails suggest that he does not realize just how close he came to break my back in -42, I on the other hand try to show some confidence and claim that it was not a close call.
For when you are allowed in here Oloren;
1. Only my panzer divisions had the strength to throw back your forces, and there are not alot of panzer divisions available...
2. The alternate attacks between the centre and the south was close to becoming my undoing
3. Had you pushed a little harder in the south, the entrie front would have crumbled as there was no combat ready troops available to fill any gaps.
4. I have been given time to refill alot of my divisions by now, leaving me in a far better position than before
5. I have had time to finnish another fallback line.

This is no disrespect to Oloren in any way, it just is to show how the game might seem completely different from the two sides of the save-file, and a learning oppertunity for others.

I think that he might also feel the NEED to do something, anything, as he knows he has the initiative and upper hand in terms of troops. Furthermore he also knows that more and more defensive lines are being built further behind, ehich means new obstacles for him to tackle as he advances. More time is a godsent for me at the current time, although I will never manage to finish all the lines I would like.

Overall
Last turn gave the USSR a scare, and they make no attacks this turn. We do however launch three attacks as three USSR stacks are placed in the open. Losses are only 3:1, but I need to take these attacks just to show that we still have a bite. We manage to inflict 2 retreats and 1 rout this turn.

Losses
USSR : 68.000 troops, 694 guns, 32 AFVs, 75 AC.
Axis : 22.000 troops, 191 guns, 33 AFVs, 2 AC.

Pools
Manpower : 294.316
Vehicle : 252.399
Armaments : 275.047
Hiwi : 2

Pest control
We are unable to deal with all the partisans that pop up due to low movement rate, nothing to do about that. 2 of the 5 partisans are chased away this turn.

Overall
The USSR make only one attack this turn, scoring a retreat, but since the hex in question is one I fail to reclaim, I have to abandon Kirovgrad as it can be cut off next turn. We launch 5 attacks, and score 1 held (the one attack that I HAD to win to keep Kirovgrad), 3 retreats and 1 rout.

Losses
USSR : 70.000 troops, 724 guns, 98 AFVs, 147 AC.
Axis : 31.000 troops, 385 guns, 50 AFVs, 2 AC.

Pools
Manpower : 302.407

Overall
The USSR make a total of 7 attacks, scoring 2 held, 4 retreats and 1 rout. They are pushed back, but the fact that three attacks occur in the border between AGN and AGC is a concern. We make 7 attacks as well, and score 3 retreats and 4 routs.

Losses
Again, something is askew with the losses report (USSR losses are given as about 35% lower than they are in terms of combat alone, not to mention attrition losses).

USSR : 20.000 troops, 389 guns, 145 AFVs, 123 AC (all numbers too low).
Axis : 32.000 troops, 408 guns, 60 AFVs, 10 AC.

Pools
Manpower : 308.285
Vehicle : 242.019
Armaments : 164.509
Hiwi : 15

Pest control
3 partisan units are forced to flee, leaving one on the map.

True, espesially since I tipped him about their usefulness
Although, he does not need them, he can do what he wants when he wants. I only have a handful of units able to push him back, so I guess it will soon be time to sacrifice some Rumanians, and heed the words of the Prophet Bruce Dickinson, and "Run to the Hills"...

Disclaimer
Paint and/or print screen would not work for me once more...

Overall
The rivers finally froze, and the Rumanians shatter and rout in the south. I am now somewhat concerned that I will have to pull back to the blue line in post #77.
The USSR launch 8 attacks, scoring 1 held, 4 retreats 1 rout, 1 shatter and 1 surrender. We make 8 attacks as well, scoring 1 held, 3 retreats and 4 routs.

Losses
USSR : 74.000 troops, 840 guns, 275 AFVs, 172 AC.
Axis : 42.000 troops, 591 guns, 102 AFVs, 5 AC.
No sigar to those who realizes which of those losses I cannot take...

Units lost
The 14th Rumanian Infantry Division shatters, and a fortified zone surrenders this turn.

Pools
Manpower : 319.008
Vehicle : 235.383
Armaments : 256.534
Hiwi : 26
Come on, give those armaments to those men and give me 250.000 men worth of rifle squads!!!

Pest control
4 partisans are hunted down this turn.

Overall
The USSR launch a minor offensive in the south, making 9 attacks, scoring 7 retreats and 2 routs. To counter this, we make 9 attacks as well, although only 3 that really affects the USSR thrust. We score 7 retreats and 2 routs as well this turn. For the situation in the south, see below.

Losses
USSR : 78.000 troops, 864 guns, 296 AFVs, 306 AC.
Axis : 38.000 troops, 455 guns, 88 AFVs, 5 AC.
2:1 just does not help me...

Pools
Manpower : 327.593
Vehicles : 228.461
Armaments : 249.256

Wish I could do as the Germans did in -45 and send those men to the front with minimal armaments.

Pest control
We deal swiftly with the 4 partisans that show up.

Overall
The USSR keep pushing in the south, and are now at the outskirts of Odessa. Unfortunately most of our MP are spent on moving units, so the ammount of attacks we can make are somewhat reduced. The USSR make 12 attacks, scoring 3 helds, 4 retreats and 5 routs, the routs being on Rumanians. Not all Rumanians run away at the first sight of the enemy though, some of them actually fight to the death (see below). We make 6 attacks, and score 4 retreats and 2 routs. The fact that we now make more retreats than routs is a slight concern.

Losses
USSR : 74.000 troops, 749 guns, 179 AFVs, 274 AC.
Axis : 38.000 troops, 500 guns, 46 AFVs, 5 AC.

Pools

Pz IVg : 13
Pz VI (Tiger) : 137
Kind of frustrating to have only one unit using the Tiger when there are so many in the pool.

Pest control
The 3 partisans that pop up are sent running away again.

Overall
It seems the USSR have run out of steam allready, as they only make 2 attacks this turn (scoring 2 retreats). Had our panzers been in better shape, I would have ordered a small counterattack, but alas. We do make 7 attacks this turn, scoring 1 held, 5 retreats and 1 rout. Last turnwe recieved 2 fresh infantry divisions, and these have just arrived on the southern front, they were badly needed.

Losses
USSR : 69.000 troops, 796 guns, 159 AFVs, 205 AC.
Axis : 35.000 troops, 390 guns, 83 AFVs, 4 AC.
The good thing about the losses this turn, is that they are mostly done to Italians and Rumanians, my precious German untis were left mostly alone this turn.

Pools
Manpower : 341.730
Vehicle : 215.823
Armaments : 212.113

Hehehe yeah. Yup, no major offensives are undertaken, however I will attack when the CV numbers are "right". I THINK this is buying me time. I keep forcing the USSR to reoccupy some of the contested hexes, reducing his ability to launch deliberate attacks in many zones.

Overall
The USSR brings out the dreaded Rifle Corps, and the result is felt. What I am hoping for at the moment is to be able to hold the current position untill mud arrives, but I have severe doubts about my ability to do so. The USSR launch 11 attacks, scoring 4 helds, 6 retreats and 1 rout. We try 4 attacks, but only score 2 helds and 2 retreats, not good enough.

Losses
USSR : 86.000 troops, 862 guns, 744 AFVs, 289 AC.
Axis : 39.000 troops, 566 guns, 106 AFVs, 4 AC.
Although we score 7 : 1 in AFVs, the USSR can afford it, we cannot.

Pools
Manpower : 346.952
Vehicles : 212.400
Armaments : 209.165
Hiwi : 49
Would not mind seing some Volkssturm units appear to use some of that manpower...Well, guess the LW Field Divisions are not much better than the Volkssturm anyway.

Pest control
Only 1 partisan to deal with this turn.

Overall
The USSR keeps pushing in the south, and they launch 10 attacks, scoring 10 retreats. We make 4 attacks and score 3 retreats and a rout. So far I am not too scared about the situation as I have forces to respond with (atleast to some extent). That being said, I will not be sadden when mud comes back as every small period of time without fighting is a godsent right now.

Losses
USSR : 93.000 troops, 1.073 guns, 283 AFVs, 211 AC.
Axis : 40.000 troops, 567 guns, 81 AFVs, 5 AC.

Campaign losses
USSR : 5.335.641 troops, 82.453 guns, 24.580 AFVs, 19.922 AC.

Much like Soviet player put Zhukov in STAVKA. Better with all the leader rolls.

Overall
A worrying development. The USSR attack all along the line (well not literally all over, but still...). They launch 15 attacks and score 3 helds and 12 retreats. We only make 2 counterattacks this turn, and score 2 retreats. the problem now is that although our attacks still succeed, they are too costly. We lose 5.000 men killing of 6.000 USSR troops. A poor exchange.

Losses
Once more the USSR losses are way off...
USSR : 7.000 troops, 173 guns, 9 AFVs, 3 AC.
Axis : 25.000 troops, 189 guns, 21 AFVs, 2 AC.

Pools
Manpower : 354.911
Vehicles : 206.343
Armaments : 230.851
Hiwi : 207

Leader exchange
Halder and Guderian changes positions.

Pest control
All 3 on map partisans are chased down.

Overall
Once more the USSR pushes along most of the front. Unless I am able to halt their attack in the centre next turn, I will have to reactivate the static units in AGN and prepare to fall back. Some good news though, Guderian has come through and released the Pz IVg2 and Pz V to the pools. Hopefully we will soon see some of them in combat. After all the Fuhrer has promised that his new wonderweapons will turn the war!
The USSR make a total of 20 attacks (more and more each turn...), and score 5 helds and 15 retreats. We make 6 attacks, for a result of 3 helds, 2 retreats amd 1 rout. Somewhat concerned about the fact that we now also encounter Mechanized Corps on the line...

Losses
USSR : 109.000 troops, 1.194 guns, 591 AFVs, 360 AC.
Axis : 53.000 troops, 892 guns, 67 AFVs, 17 AC.

Pools
Manpower : 362.863
Vehicle : 204.231
Armaments : 236.703
Hiwi : 157

Pest control
All 3 partisans are delt with.

Hiwi explanation
The rising ammount of Hiwis in the pool is most likely from the disbanding of forts (see below).

Overall
The USSR keeps pushing, but I am still hoping to keep the front untill mud sets in. On a brighter side, Paul Hausser arrives with a fresh Panzer Corps. The only units in it so far however is only two infantry divisions (also fresh), but they are badly needed at the front.
The USSR makes a total 16 attacks, getting 5 helds, 10 retreats and 1 rout as results. We only make 4 attacks, and score 1 held and 3 retreats this turn.

Losses
USSR : 106.000 troops, 1.122 guns, 541 AFVs, 301 AC.
Axis : 47.000 troops, 801 guns, 122 AFVs, 3 AC.

Pools
Manpower : 365.227
Vehicle : 200.655
Armaments : 232.523
Hiwi : 5
Although the tank pools are still a major concern, some of the other pools are now looking rather good (see below).

Pest control
We deal with the 3 partisans that pop up.
