I think Saper will not push towards Stalingrad. Readjustments will be necessary.

T58 far south (German)

Another prove of my stupidity.

Losing Novorossiysk cut off sea contact with Sevastopol (I forgot about port rules) and doomed my troops in Crimea - 9 infantry division plus 1 tank brigade - 84k soldiers.

Bad, bad, bad ...

arg, it's realy time for mud.

i realy hope you can hold moscow. i would say that's the difference between a lost game and a russian offensive in the next year. after all there are around 160 manpower centers around moscow.

T58 south (Soviet)

I abandoned upper Don bulge plus stretched front in Tambov area to reinforced my lines further south.

Near Rostov I managed to reestablish contact with encircled units. Crucial factor was air-base providing air-head supply to my encircled divisions.

Amphibious assault on Novorossiysk was obviously unsuccessful.

The Finnish attack is just what you want. They be worthless after 4 to 6 turns of combat.

You Moscow defences look good. GHC can take it IF they set up 1 infantry army the right way, but if they don't I beleive you can hold it for now.

The south is the key, I like how you have stuff set-up and are sucking him into the deep south. GHC just plain cant hold a front that long.

Game is still up for grabs.

One of counter-attacks (SE from Moscow) failed, not good because he will be able to establish strong position there.

Contrary to my expectation my units didn't retreat towards safety. They are doomed now, I do no chance of breaking through German lines now.

I have to ask. You handled Pelton quite well but here you've struggled to hold Saper back. What's been the main difference?

Simplifying things - difference was muling. My army was almost destroyed by the end of 7th turn and I didn't recover since (my mistakes didn't help).

Other thing I noticed was Saper's quality CC. During initial summer and winter I won under 10% defensive battles many times despite good initial odds and commanders.
