way past the remnants. The Soviet shock level is 80 I believe and John's is like 115 or so. So it's hard to stop John from doing anything
he wants to. D'oh.

time I happened to have some troops to rail into the AO to help out. I may be able to hold these guys back a turn or two.

unblocked guys to help unstop the dedicated crossings and then we'll have a game to play.

he's been doing. Terrifically ferocious fighting going on.

can tell. Not much I can do about it. My heroic hero's are standing firm steady as a rock. And then just before they die they throw their
rifles down and start running.

There's some serious fighting going on in the air. Mostly it's John doing 8 or 12 airfield strikes per round. And several rounds per turn.
That reminds me.......... I need to post the losses too. That's going to be in the next post after this one.

Details coming up. John is making slow progress w/ the Finns and he's sailed in some regular German formations and they are taking
part in the struggle in this area too. Actually they are the reason for any progress at all since the Finns are challenged in the strength
area.

delay him here for a turn or two.

will block the Axis for long but it might slow things down a little bit.

This is the third eng unit that I have come across that has no eng abilities. No wonder they are not fixing bridges.

Thank you for catching that. I couldn't for the life of me figure out why it wouldn't have any engineering cap. since it has the squads for
it. See, I can still learn a thing or two about this game.

Status: offline 		Any news from the Svir river front? The Axis is probably heading for Novaya Ladoga. Capture of this town will deny Leningrad to be supplied via Lake Ladoga. It removes the Leningrad SP. Then all Army Group North has to do is to drive east south of the city to meet with the combined Finnish/German Karelian army. This could result in a gigantic Kessel.

Where are his panzers, Larry? Have you been able to track all his fast units?

Back to Telumar's warning: The Germans could not afford such losses in the long run. A real strategic game turner could be a deep strike and meeting of the spearheads in the big area of Lake Illmen. To achieve this, the circled troops in pic 529 didn't need to cross the Luga in the direct way to LG, they could easily run straight east.

Here's the situation to the east of Leningrad. John is pushing south and yes, he's headed for Novaya Lodaga and I've got it
garrisoned pretty well so far so that's not an immediate problem.

Actually to tell you the truth I've lost track of where his tanks are. This game has been so confusing and fast paced that the Panzsers
were another thing to keep track of and I couldn't.

That's what John has planned I'm pretty sure. It sounds like something he would do.

I do not have the strength to do that now. I have been hitting my head against a brick wall attacking dug in units. My losses are too heavy. Every time I find a hole in Larry’s defense he quickly plugs it. He is on interior lines.

In the south look at how many turns it took me to reduce the Stalin Line and Odessa. The centre is WW1 trench warfare.

Most of my units are running on red and in a few turns the mud comes and then I will be between a rock and a hard place, come winter.

I think my main problem / s will be with the "flooded marsh" hexes as they are impassable at present but I think they will freeze over in winter. If you study the map you will see that there are large holes in my lines that I can not cover at present. With winter I think Larry is going to be able drive deep into my rear.

So at present I have to work out a way to keep the pressure on Larry, build up my supply, rebuild many of my units, work out where Larry is going to attack come winter, then prepare my defensive positions on the GTI, then work out my counter attack routes and objectives. And if I am wrong…….

further into the Crimea. The fighting on the riverbanks has reached the savage level. I attack now and then when I get a good situation
to pursue. I'm attacking at ignore losses since that was Soviet doctrine at the time.
