How many victories does an Army need to become Guard Army? In the manual it says 75, but I vaguely remember 25 once in a patch somewhere. In my current game I have 11 Armies with 25+ victories and 3 with 30+. No Guards yet






Mine are not close but i think its 50

I got one at 47, but that is only for games where you play either mild blizzard or no Soviet +1. And it's not automatic, you just have to wait for the die roll.

I figure the armor here is 4 units and thus follow on attack not likely.

I put zoc pressure on river crossing

Nice AAR. It's always satisfying beating back a panzer/mot division and even more so an SS division. Hold on comrade, the fascists will not take the city.


Too many darn Communist cheerleaders in WITE ;-) Where are all the German ones at? Or at least that is what it seems like to me.

Maybe a "pyrrhic victory"

The one hex doesn't give you a week imo. The 4 defense is easily moved & pretty much 100% routed out to be lost a few turns to recover. The attacks leave the Soviets more vulnerable and easier to retreat more so than the Germans on the next round(s) of attacks. It is a cycle the Soviets are destined to lose. Your one ally, time, is helping you though. But if I were the Germans I would continue to attack with infantry during the mud around Moscow which can be done pretty easy but I have seen few do it.

I like the germans too, but i feel like in 41 the russians need the motivation. When we're in 43-44 thats when i say GO DEUTSCHLAND and repel the communist hordes. Its all a matter of persepective

I evacuated 20, and got 2 extra Il-2 factories. So evacuating 2 (1 of each batch) will probably be enough.

German go south but run into river line which slows down a potentially good attack

7 vehicles production have been lost and I let that night dive bomber production get destroyed.
