Shown are the attack odds

The weakest attack on Odessa was completely successful with a 19 roll.

The strong attacks worked but cost the Germans 2 units and a total of 7 units disorganized. The mobility in the north has been affected.

Is that an artillery unit all by itself just on the other side of the Dneipr from the forest hex?

Yes, I am afraid it is. Zhukov was to join it but at the time I thought I had time to get him there before the Germans.

When I save the game after the end of the impulse and start of the Axis impulse I noted the weather roll - a 1 so storms may still save the day for the Russians
