i tried a gamble to keep momentum but as usual Russia took initiative following turn so : this time reinforcement arrived by train and next deployed to attack
part of the front i had to divide units in X to cover all

air losses are heavy 59 vs 137

[cpt flam]

AGC

supply and readiness are our worst friends
it become hard to move toward Stalino and Kharkov

Rumania has IIIrd corp entered in Crimea

[cpt flam]

AGN
Pskov supply dump is expanded, less critical as rail is passing through
rail head is visible on the left
i had to open back supply for some units, problem due to engineer in first line
advance continue some but units are exhausted

air war 73 vs 263

[cpt flam]

AGC
i got 2 divisions reorganizing
GD regiment took Gzhatsk
advance will come to a halt soon, not much time before mud
roads to Tula and Moscow seems to be crowded with soviets units

[cpt flam]

AGS
some ruskis will be isolated along the Dnepr
Kharkov supply dump failed to a raid

we got 2 Hungarian security divisions

[cpt flam]

greater south
Italians found a MG by chance
rail head is south of Nikolayev
Crimea entrance is cleared

[cpt flam]

it's a bit silly.
i have initiative, after my turn Elmer play and get initiative: playing second time. And so on.
Not much possibility for expectation.
Furthermore supply state can change from isolated to supplied.

[cpt flam]

AGN
i received the 227th Infantry going south to close an infiltration
rail line has been cut between Volkhov and Leningrad

air losseshas a bad account 51 vs 133

some progress is made
the recco unit will be retreated
we got 2nd and 5th Panzer divisions
but will not have much time to use them before mud which will come soon

Kharkov is isolated
same thing for units along the Dnepr
