Reorganization - Turn 43 The state of the German army is currently not the tip top shape it needs to be in to finish the conquest of the Soviet Union. None of the panzer divisions are in the right place for the summer offensive, and currently hold the line while infantry divisions refit. In the chaos, infantry leaders took command of motorized divisions, and Manstein currently mans a corps of infantry. AP's are zeroed out, having just been spent to replace several key leaders, including 11th army, which received the skilled hands of Heinrici. 2nd Army and 2nd Panzer Army took the worst beating by far, and currently have about 10 divisions currently refitting. Unfortunately, the rail to Bryansk is still cut, so they're refitting on a level one super depot. Overall, the refitting process is going fairly smooth, with 175,000 men making their way to the front this turn. The pocket is almost cleared, with another 65,000 men captured this turn. Small attacks are carried out against rifle divisions across the southern front to destroy forts, recover moral, and hopefully drain the Soviets of some strength. Some Motorized Luftwaffe AA battalions are liquidated to free up around 1.5k trucks. Hopefully these go to the divisions that need it, and not the other TB's. 200k Soviets are sent to the reserves, bringing the on map total back under 5 million men.
