I am shocked by your loss. Just finished the manual and will play tomorrow.

Also I have made some mistakes at the beginning of the game.
Another aspect is that I've played on the hard level and that the Germans are far more experienced than my recruits.

Status: offline 		Still the front-wide assault in 1942 wasn't possible. I strongly recommend The Wages of Destruction: The Making and Breaking of the Nazi Economy by Adam Tooze. Essential reading for designers of wargames of this scale.

One is reality, other is playability.

Fortunately the game is very easy moddable and with couple of clicks Germans supply system can be even more crippled than now.

Let's hope that via modding players can be presented the same supply and resource problems the Germans historically faced.

If you would be interested in making your game more difficult just let me know, I can help you with that.
