From both sides I do 4 or 5 hasty attacks but the German 7-9 would not budge.

The retreat losses seem low here.

Status: offline 		Thats quite allot of penetrations, it looks like there is some steam in your offensive, bot on the other hands the moves look risky. Lets hope that sillyflower can't turn this into a desaster.

He has a few things to consider. we are in blizzard so mp is more and his tanks seem to be all in the front line.

He has 3 separate groups to save. And his tanks will need to move far to counterattack.

Also his troops north of Saratov will not have hq range next turn.

It is funny you still killed some Pz38 :-). And the germans used T-60 which is really a death trap.

Seems thin down here.

My guess is Silly will rout my tanks and reestablish a line.
South of Saratov--- he is in bad positions having held far to forward
