looking like John is railing people down here so the Soviet progress may be coming to a slow stop here.

Hi Larry, would that be possible to show tank losses for both the Red Army *and* the Axis? I would like to compare with the figures in Stahel's 'Typhoon' and a couple other sources.
Tx!

Yeah, I think that might be possible. Here's the Soviet losses as of T39 ( 11/2/41 ):
Maybe John will read between the lines and be kind enough to post HIS Axis tank losses.

I'm trying to get a bulge started in the front lines and at the time the Germans in the Smolensk area were relatively thin on the
ground and it seemed best to do a bulge there. Unfortunately, I've been attacking for the last three or four turns in a row and the
only thing I have to show for it is losses. I'm afraid John is absorbing my probes w/ no problem at all. D'oh.

freeze over and that will facilitate movement across the Kiev area river banks. And John isn't guarding the whole length of the river.
So the front lines might change then.

losses but there's no movement anywhere of any significance. It's WWI all over again.

Hey there reglores, welcome and thanks for posting. "Oh-hand" means those units in "the pool" and not assigned to a specific
unit yet. "Assigned" means that, that specific piece of equipment has been given to a specific unit as part of their OOB now. I
hope this helps. Keep those good questions coming.

Um.....I DID do an amphibious landing but there was no supply past the port and I didn't have enough units to follow up that landing
so it never went anywhere BUT John evidently thought I was going to do a really good push there and he moved his front line(s). So
I guess the answer is yes and maybe not. I'm not sure. We'll have to play this thing 10 times and take the average.

I think you're correct. According to the OOB display thingie I've got almost 1100 units in play. We'll have to ask John how many he's
got. He may not want to answer that, come to think of it. OPSEC and all that.

I'm guessing that John's got more combat power than you, but spread out over fewer units. A meaningful increase in the front lines dilutes his combat power and impacts his ability to establish reserves.

Status: offline 		I was retreating from Hanko ( where I'm getting beat up....I have no idea why I'm still holding it ) and I thought I'd do a
little recon on my way to Leningrad and just happened to find an open port for once. On an impulse I grabbed it and
now I have a port in Finland. John rushed some units there and sailed his BB to a position within range. D'oh. It
looks like I'm going to get beat up like at Hanko. Sill, I kind of like the idea of having a port in Finland and I'm planning
on shipping some more people up there.

left to put them back in the shipyard afterward. I'd hate them to get caught out in the water there.

Status: offline 		Here's how the air war is going right now. I'm toying w/ the idea of maybe doing some airfield strikes just to peeve John. And maybe
kill some German fighters. My pilots are the George Bush type and as a result are worse than useless and I hesitate to use them that
way. Just gets them killed faster. What I like to do is schedule a lot of CS strikes and then let my AS missions to ambush the Axis
interceptors. At least that's the theory. I think that's the way it works: the bombers, the attackers, go in to the target area w/ or w/o any
escorts and the game engine finds some defending fighters nearby, I guess, and perhaps sets them as attackers on the bombers and
then the game engine looks at nearby Soviet airfields and perhaps picks out some fighters as interceptors on the Axis fighters. It's
a little complicated.
