Silly opens trapping an army worth of troops, most from Galitsky's 26th Army

It keeps open rr to escaping troops.

Silly does take the 3rd battle below hex. I may be out of the cauldron before he gets the rr.

600 German casualties in a massive Russian attack.

Are they a little wimpy or just the greatest retreaters ever?

I sent my 2nd tank army back to this area from Penza area where they were moved only 3 turns ago. Will use next turn to exploit.

I expect a small german retreat from this far east area next turn.

I use shell units to hold up the fort levels which are behind the new front line.

I accidentally leave a tank corp in position top be captured.

It was, totally, one of those accidental 'it moved by itself' moves.

My guess is his tanks will now head directly north.
(unless he thinks he can still do a large capture of the retreating troops)

So you are saying that SillyFlowers Operational sense in the "Three Levels of War"(strategic/operational/tactical) is really good ;)

He has not had any pressure on his tank this whole war.

He's always a few turns ahead and his positioning is always tight or well enough that he cannot get hurt.

HE MUST BE DISTROYED!

My play has been average thus his high marks have to be adjusted.

I line this up to take the rough hex from the german mountain unit.
It will be a close one.

I will rr in 2 very strong corp. Very nice maneuver as rr line east of Moscow still open

They could maybe also get trapped.

But has to be done. He will have issues with hasty attacks.

I will try and pack in area. The 2 forest hexes are key plus the rr line.

He had again long mp but it seems to be no hindrance to him.

I am thus very concerned and have done my best to try and get some relief here.

seems useless now. Even my night bombers are not as good although it is blizzard.
Plus I am limiting my day bombers as trucks situation not good.

He seems unstoppable. If he had better weather he would be in Japan by now.

Another army full will be trapped.

He also ran some tanks west by rr and they tried a pincer. Lucky, I should resupply at least for one more turn.

They rest better escape. Stalin is getting a little hot under the color. Red hot.
