Ketza (Soviet) vrs Dak41 (Axis)
I have played Dak before and he recently grabbed a game on put on the server that I put up after the latest patch.
Latest test patch
No random weather
Sudden death
Mainly playing this to see what the Soviets look like under new Morale rules after latest patch.
My goal is to be in Berlin by Xmas 1944 just in case Patton gets loose early in France.
He had a good turn one against my airforce. he didn't get many of the big bombers however.

He made a mistake in the north. I was able to rail in an infantry division and move a pocketed unit and break his ring. This should cost him a turn on the way to Leningrad.

Center turn one end. Pockets exploded out flipping as many hexes as possible.

South turn one end. He didn't make a Lvov pocket. As many hexes as possible were flipped by the screen forces.

Little trick I use setting up armies early. Disband certain corp HQs to move the SUs where you need them. This helps set up armies early in important areas like Pskov. Gets some manpower in the pool early as well.

Landbridge 16th army. Some of the southern boys came north. Tolbukin in the house replacements on.
All the bombers were sent to reserve. Fighters are dispersed close to the front to get a few Ju-52s hopefully.
Intercept at 200%.
Zhukov takes over Stavka.

I have to say that not making some kind of Lvov pocket looks like naivety.The Axis have an almost impossible task as it is without adding two more armies to the Soviet OOB.Your Stalin line defense may even stop him dead for a few weeks.

Game, set, match.

No Lvow pocket means an instant loss?
Hmmmm
Hmmmm

How he tackles the army of the Berezina would prove if he is really good or just cocky.
so far Ketza punished him for not smashing the Lida grouping or securing a crosing at Jekapils.

Turn 2 end north. Starting to set up MLR. He seems to be going the tough route to Leningrad.

Close up of the lines. CVs on landbridge are building nicely. Almost every Parachute brigade is in the swamps.

South 2 end. MLR along river being formed. Main line is just out of reach of a big push but close enough so he doesn't run amuck.

The route before Vitebsk is gonna be tough for him. By paras are dug in tighter then ticks he wont be blowing through here on the way to an easy victory. These puppies don't rout!

3 end center. Panzers are pushing south of Mogilev. Soviets react by flipping all the hexes possible.

3 end center 2. He must have read too many AARs showing success skirting north of the landbridge through the swamps.
