An incautious artillery unit advanced right into our defenses in the south.

Its the hour of the artillery. If they can slow down the advance there is a chance for victory. The first strike wears down another infantry unit.

Last but not least we deal a somewhat lucky punch against the Panzerdivision in the North and destroy two strength points. We expected one at the most.

In the north the Germans attack everywhere and get nowhere. Their infantry divisions are only shadows of what they used to be.

The southern part of Moscow is about to be lost if we cannot turn the tide soon. The Germans slowly approach our main defense line.

Next we start an attack with IL-2 ground attack aircraft that get a high bonus because adjacent friendly ground units coordinate the attack.

Now we will take care of the Luftwaffe. Air superiority was even with some slight advantages for us. But the attacks on the city took its tolls and now our airforce is getting the upper hand. Our AA guns are weakening the enemy.
