It's a strategy I first saw Q-ball use in some earlier AAR's in AGS (using worthless Axis allies air units/bases) to good effect. I do not believe partisan units can even spawn adjacent to this protective line (units with no ZOC.)

It's depressing when you seemingly have all Russian cities adequately garrisoned and those suckers pop up. A hookup twix all front railnets, particularly AGC/AGS, is a key focus pre-blizzard for a more stable supply line.

Pelton covers all bases. So does Sapper.
WITE is a good addiction with no cure.

I have had 1 rail line hit in center, but center has 2 lines so no biggy so far.

I am about to tie 2 together so I be 100% cool next turn.

South line has split so it good down there.

Saper is great very good game, but his OOB is huge.

As you know land means little.

Saper is still all in and AGN keeps driving forward. The war in the air is as intense as the war on the ground. SHC gets reserve reactions every battle but so does GHC. Defending CV values are starting to drop. I am sending all arriving ground and air units to AGN.

AGC: Saper again with draws east and I keep walking east, panzers clear the free hexes so infantry can move forward quickly.

AGN is starting to build stream. Instead of winning 2-3 battles per turn the count is going up 5-6 per turn.
Not sure if I have enough time to finish Leningrad off before winter.

AGC Saper is holding his ground now tring to make me fight for every hex.

Starting to see some high CV stacks. Most of my Panzers and MoT divisions are here now.

I will try and gain as much ground as possible before winter.

AGS again Saper is fighting forward and not running, but over all his forces are weak so I should be able to get to Rostov.

A chance for pocket in the south? Leningrad is a slugfest, but you're inching ever closer. What about Moscow? He knows you won't switch target until Leningrad holds (unlike real Germany), thus his defenses there may be weaker, as he is not expecting a blow until battle in the north is on.

I just finished turn 17 and Saper only has 1.8 million in loses.

The days of 3+ million SHC KIA are long gone. smokendave will be around 2 million.

HQBU has been nerfed to death already.

Anyone losing 2.5 to 3.0 million SHC KIA needs to get some skills.

Its next to impossible now to get a pocket of any size vs good+ SHC players.

Sure GHC can get better then historical taking ground but less then 1/2 historical losses.

With out the Lvov pocket SHC losses would be 1 to 1.5 million heheheh

Pockets are impossible vs Saper he can open any pocket he wants, as making air tight pockets is impossible now because of horrible logistics.

SHC players can simply stay just out side the reach of the chain.

Leningrad will fall next yr mybee.
Moscow has NEVER fallen after 1.06 nerfs to HQBU's - vs an average SHC player.

Morvael sorry bro but Saper is 2x as good as you or any tester. He is weak NO WHERE. I hear people cring a river about HQBU and 60% TOE rules, but the fact is Saper has had zero drop off in CV's and is weak no wheres.

I will post all the turn 1-17 info asap.

Saper, MT, Bomazz, Katza, Hoooper and a few others are in a class above all others playing SHC.

1.07 simply dumbed down the game and ruined it.

1.08 is a step in the right direction, but the real problem is the combat system as it simply doe not reflex historical losses.

1942 and 43 saw very few captured Russians yet they lost more men in 42 and 43 then in 41.

Over all not a very good summer of 1941.

1. Saper managed to never really have a drop off in CV's dispite what I have seen posted on forums about sinking CV pts..
2. Armament loses were low so no armament crunch coming.
3. SHC KIA are horribly low, this is really the only stat that matters after industry.
4. Saper again, dispite all the talk of how great AA works bombs my airfields every turn and still keeps ratio at 2 to 1 which is not historical at all.
I stack my airfields with a LW HQ with 9, yes 9 AA units and still the airfields get raped. AA guns still suck cow balls.
5. Saper managed without 1v1=2v1 to do great counter attacking to farm morale and nerf GHC morale.
This coupled with the constant losses of planes has managed to tank my armament points.19k vs 80k playing smokendave.

Once you add it all up even with a mild winter Saper will beable to have a very effective winter offensive if he wants or simply dig in.

As far a ground taken goes I would say I am historical in the north.
