how is your unit density - it seems low. Can you keep up backfilling destroyed units?

I have approx. 10to 13 1300 men divisions. and maybe 4 or 5 low men brigades.

I change a few onto refit each turn but more keep coming back from the dead. Set no higher than 80% toe

I am low on everything.

My fighters have been reverting back to I-153 planes.
Which seems odd as I have other better( and plentiful) biplanes available. This needs to be fixed btw.

The hotfix back to normal night bombing will help as it had been my air strength.

I am on a high wire and will needs thing to start going my way. Not sure what that could be though.

I might have some density if I can successfully escape the budge intact.

He could: Send tanks on most direct line to link with his infantry attacks south of Moscow. Traps how many units?
It would best preserves his tank hoard. route to Gorki with out trapping units has much more risk.

He could do both.

At some point I will need to send a blocking force before Gorki. Holding Penza and rr would delay thrust to Gorki.

I will shift units North West and get units out of the bulge. Though I hate to lose those cities.

The factory will not escape this turn.

Model was the key factor.

RR line runs thru Penza if he wants to get to Gorki.

This rough hex is finally weakly defended. To me this means he has shifting all his mobile units towards Penza.

I send in cut off troops

Everyone of these units need to be retreated.

They may have limited supply next turn if rr come under a zoc.

The German tank spearhead can do at most 5 hexes a turn during blizzard?

Here Silly goes for the small solution.

I will lose another Army worth of troops. Really: his ss Viking must have had a 50 mp to get to this deep location.
