Turn by turn I readjust positions of whole southern part of the front. Saper's advance forces me to give ground without fighting. I estimate, that by now I lost most of my blizzard gains in that area.

Finally no attacks were made in Moscow area, but in the south German juggernaut pushes relentlessly forward.

Quiet in the center a bit of action in the south.


Judging from number of panzers blow that Saper will land next turn will might be able to penetrated several lines of my defenses. Yet another turn of "readjustments" will be necessary.

Last turn of mud, so repositioning is necessary.


Due to limited commitment of both sides not much can and have to be done here.

Front line is strengthened considerably. I can't afford to lose more ground here.


There is still plenty of troops in Tula region. If Saper keeps his attention in the south I will move surplus there.

This is weak spot and I am afraid that it would only take 1 maybe 2 turns to crack this line.

My positions look strong. I can always fall-back behind river and I created decent relieve force near Voronez. Just in case ...

Red Army is stronger than month ago, but not as much as I hoped. To make things worse German army not only got more numerous but during the course of April boosted its combat efficiency by undertaking several successful attacks each turn.



Comparing to last month:

Germans: soldiers +47k, AFVs +495
Soviet: soldiers +297k, AFVs +1594

First turn of clear weather in May and another prove of my stupidity.


I somehow didn't manage to employ reserve mode and I paid the price by loosing few valuable hexes in Moscow area. Some of this battles could have been won ...

Despite having half-decent fort belt I was not able to stop advancing panzers. It took no more than half (at most) of Saper's moblie forces to punch nice-sized whole in my lines. River Don saved me from disaster.

I overwritten old save with new, so I am not able to present my actions during that turn.


Overall I attacked a lot, but German reserves were extremely successful, especially in in crucial south part of the front - leaving many non-committed panzers made the difference.

Mud, so amount of action dropped significantly - only 1 hex lost.

No attacks here and clearly Saper is planning something different this time.

Part of mobile forces that weren't used during last clear turn were transferred to Kursk sector.

Totally agree. I still pay the price for 7 initial turns of this game, when my army almost ceased to exist.

To counter new threat I reinforced Kursk region using troops form Tula.


I didn't use reserve mode preferring to refit units in Voronezh region. I assume I am strong enough to do it.

This could be my worst turn ever.

I badly underestimated Saper and paid terrible price. Whole Volkov front was nicely herded and now faces annihilation.

River Don that was saved me 2 turns ago will now protect Germans. I can't see the way of breaking this pocket.



Encircled units, overall 240k soldiers

4 Tanks and 2 Cavalry corps
20 Infantry and 2 Mt divisions



One more turn like that and war will be lost.

Predictably apart from loosing few encircled divisions not much happened - 30k (3 infantry div, 1 airborne brig)

Loosing almost quarter of million soldiers sent ripples across whole front. I was forced to fall back from exposed positions.


Unfortunately German divisions surrounded in Lipetsk fought well.

Saper managed to reopen corridor to motorized divisions encircled in Lipetsk.

Destroyed units - 3 infantry divisions and 1 tank corps (29k).

Another unpleasant surprise here. 7 more divisions are doomed.

In the meanwhile remnants of big pockets were eliminated - 2 cavalry corps, 3 tank corps, 13 infantry divisions, 2 mountain divisions (162k)
