Status: offline 		There's no industry in Minsk anymore so you're probably wondering why I'm still holding it. I have a single Rifle Division in the city, plus
an HQ for the division and I'm delaying two full Axis divisions from taking their place at the front lines. So far. I could probably make an
attempt to run for it but when I was playing FITE using TOAW the Soviet player made a point of holding onto the cities as long as
possible. It's just the principle of the thing for me. Part of the same reason I'm still holding onto Riga although that one has more the
reason to delay the Axis rail if possible.

Status: offline 		Here's Riga now. I'm holding onto it by my fingernails but there's been no Axis rail repair dude show up yet......maybe he's taking a
different route to get to Leningrad. Time to do some recon by cursor to find the Axis rail that's been repaired and where it's not.

Status: offline 		Here's the result of the recon by cursor. The pop-up shows the % damage to the rail in the hex so you can tell what's been recently
repaired, what's still damaged, and by the line of damage 1 hexes leading up to it, I'd say that anonymous Axis unit is probably one of
the FDB units. And it's headed for Riga.

Status: offline 		There were some reinforcements that showed up around Leningrad so I thought I'd give them to the 8th Army and form a sort of front
line along the Luga River. Some of the divisions are depleted and are only shells. And the Axis units are getting closer and closer.
Will the divisions fill out in time? We'll see.

If you are lucky to break a pocket you may not get your units out but check to see if SUs can be assigned to Stavka...

I started against the AI using beta 40, giving the Germans an extra 10 points across the board...Germans seem to be moving quicker but HQs still unprotected and one of my units has crossed the Polish border heading for Warsaw...see how far it gets...

Status: offline 		I moved the 27th Army to the Narva bottleneck. So far the 27th Army is the only thing protecting the north route to Leningrad. I've got
8th Army along the Luga river so the next thing to check is the right hook the Axis might try. The AI might try a right hook? We'll see.
I didn't have room to show the face of the 27th Army leader but you can see his stats.

people into this area to take up some of the slack.

Status: offline 		Here's what the Smolensk area looks like now. Just a series of screens to slow down the Nazis.
I'm going to have to rail some more people into this area before I'll be able to hold it. In other
words I'm still in pull-back-slow mode so far. Except for in the south. And up around Leningrad.
There it's going better for the Soviets. Somewhat. I'm getting creamed in the middle in other words.

advance has seemed to slow down a lot lately. This is the moves for turn 4 by the Soviets:

Status: offline 		I'm just doing some end-of-turn checks before I hit the "end turn" button and I found out that some of my Front HQ's are getting SU's
and shouldn't. Although the back-water Front HQ's have a fair leader in some cases I'm not sure I can get much utility out of such an
HQ. It's MP is zero and can't really be there to supply the SU's to it's subordinates so I'm thinking it shouldn't have any SU's at all. And
if it can't have any SU's what good is it to me?
