War in the East

by Grey Hunter

Part 24





I run recon. It doesn’t seem to bad in the north.



Unfortunately, the 8th Panzer does not have the ability to continue this advance north, and I and forces to fall back to shorten the line. You survive this year, Leningrad.



This means That I have to do my normal tactic of pushing back the enemy across the line.







There are a few Russians in the Moscow region.



In the north, I push as hard as I can.



Around Moscow, there is no chance of attacking, but I am able to make the enemy flee along the southern part of the front.







6th Army does the same.



As does 17th Army, but they manage to shatter three enemy units. I really could have pushed farther in if I had more men and more time.



IN the Crimea, we continue to dig in, and push back the enemies near us.







There are a couple of Russian attacks, but they make no ground.







Well, The Blizzard is here, but at least that last week was decidedly one sided.



The Russian army continues to creep upwards in numbers, their fighting strength is now past 4.6 million men.



Here are the production reports




And some units are starting to upgrade.



This will improve their fighting abilities, and I now have Panzer Armies instead of groups, which sound much more manly.

All we can do now is wait to see what the Russians do. They seem light on troops everywhere but Moscow, so I am now expecting their main punch to come from there.
