Too many soviet units being in static mode at the start and with the Germans effectively getting better CV over all the patches means all of the soviet southern front gets encircled and wiped off the map T1 of the 1942 campaign....as well its very difficult to stop the Germans from closing the Soviets in a pocket by Demyansk either...since the Germans can effectively activate CV more quickly by static mode removals.

It stands the same issues of the 1941 campaign in that the soviet player effectively just watches a huge chunk of their army destroyed due to perfectly planned German T1 of the campaign. When they do WITE 2.0 they really need to add the ability for either each player or at least player 2 to do some limited force movements to offset perfect T1 movements. So the set up isnt 100% the same each game.

I second that. Perhaps give the Soviets so many points to move units around a bit.
