Status: offline 		After 6 games failing to get past turn 5 vs Bitburger, Aurlien, Gam3r, Lisien, dontra85 and dabird I have managed
to find an opponent that has stuck around past turn 5, Gundam1985. We are currently working on turn 11.
I also have 2 other good games going on vs Q-Ball (9) and Shritshell(8) that are just past turn 5.

I guess we should start this story at turn 5.

4th PG cuts off the main rail line from Moscow, while 16th and 18th Armies make small gains and hold the flanks.

Odessa is cut off and 11th Army starts to arrive at the front finally.

Status: offline 		17th prepares for the assault on Kiev. 1st PG and 6th form a 6 unit pocket and LIV Corp takes Odessa.

I have found that routing units can cause loses as high as surrenders if done right.
A 10,000 man unit will lose 90% plus of men and equipment and the panzer units don't have to sit around waiting to finish off the enemy units the following turn.

Why the 18 units routed or shattered. Its not as good as a surrender. But if your looking to keep an enemy on their back foot to flip hexes it works just fine.
Guessing this tactic is why the 6 early surrenders?

Status: offline 		Are those maps Turn 5? If so, that's very good progress

Also, Soviets have 2.3 mil on the MAP (critically low), and 913,000 in Reserves.....he needs to get units on the map. Does your opponent know how to use the reserve box?

All those routs and shatters may also be because he is not keeping his Rifle units up to strength

With the progress you've made and 2.3 mil on the map, you are going to grab tons of ground

On the Leningrad map, it looks like there's nobody on the East bank of the Volkhov.....if you can get up to that last port on Lake Ladoga, that will eliminate all of Leningrad front and probably end the game eventually

Yeah, way too many in reserves by this point.


There's also ways to elicit better routs, namely using overwhelming force, deliberate attacking with panzers in open terrain, hitting weak/retreated units hard etc.

This is the way.
This is the Road to Leningrad.

Did your earlier opponents surrender when you reached Lake Ladoga?

To-date your 100% right.

It is far harder to advance vs a commander that has a much lower reserve level.

This could get interesting messy.

What few enemy planes that get in the air are wiped out.

Again only a few enemy planes help in any of the battles, which is good because the LW is not close enough to help.
