Not for certain but did the Germans make some really good progress? I haven't played RB in over a decade. They seem to have penetrated along the rail line a great deal.

Thanks for posting, always like to see how others approach a game.

I would say for a 6 Turns RB CG scenario the German achievements are average both in regards to perimeter and losses for both sides.

Hmmm det där tre-hex-huset uppe i nordöstr hörnet W10 X9 X10 

Det känns oerhört viktigt i spelet, är det någon som vet lite mer om det huset ... ?

 

Stod ingenting eller extremt lite i "island of fire" men det verkar lite bortglömt.

 

Som sagt i spelet känns det som om det är avgörande för försvaret i nordöst, vilket jag brukar tycka då jag försöker befästa det från dag 1 o framåt

Noterar att du har börjat använda tändsticksaskar som mellanförvaring. Verkar smart.

:)

 

’Började’ använda dem på 90-talet, mer än 25 år sedan. Här ser du alla 6-askarna, det var då jag spelade 3 kampanjer samtidigt. Har mellan askarna förstärkt upp med tjock-ark och fräschar ibland upp fram och bak ytorna med nyklistrat tjock-ark, använder nuförtiden original-mini-kart-arken, eller utslitna IFT tabeller, etc.
Bra förbättring är även att förd
ela upp några askar med två fack i samma tändsticksask.

Används även när andra kampanjer spelas, den som spelar engländare eller jänkare, brukar den ryska förvaringen.

AFTERMATH (7 Game Turns): A Bloodbath occurred in an inferno of blazing buildings. Stuka bombers struck Russian Assault Engineers in a roofless factory and killed 35 elite soldiers at the opening stages of the battle and destroyed their 3 LMG and their Leader in the two direct hits conducted by two Stukas. A Russian Btln MTR directed by an Offb´d Observer bombed the German troops in the factory complex (6B/2R, Black, Red, Black, Red). Three buildings were Rubbled along the front by Russian Set DCs and a half Coy of German soldiers perished, and simultaneously a German placed DC, rubbled a hex with 30 soldiers led by a Commissar. There were no stops to the casualties taken place and corpses piled up, along the street, ditches, and indoors, and mild breeze started a smoke screen and luckily for the Russians blinded the German all out assault against the last big factory in Russian Control, they tried to attack regardless of the smoke, but the Russian SMG squads repulsed German assault troops entering the factory in bloody hand-to-hand combat and point-blank fire stopped any further attempts.

At the Bread factory area the German attack went better and managed to break the Russian defense line with the help of two panzer platoons, the Russian were forced into a rout and conducted a slow bloody fighting withdrawal with the German companies in pursuit, backed up by their panzer, blasting the Russian positions into submission and also supported by a German Btln MTR directed by an Offb´d Observer (8B/3R, Red, Red, Black, Red, Black, Red).

In the Volga sector the Germans planned no attack and only tried to hold their gains, but a Russian medium artillery 120+mm started to blast Germans positions with pre-registered fire (6B/2R pulled Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Red, Red), and conducted first a probing attack vs German positions under the effective artillery that never ceased to pound the Germans to death and in the middle of the battle an all out assault were conducted and German immediately sent reinforcements from the central factory sector and the Stuka started to get very active in the area as many Russian troops soldiers were seen crossing relative open ground despite losses inflicted by the Stuka planes that to a great extent managed to save many German soldiers from being annihilated and also halted the Russian forces from reaching any of the big factory halls.

German Order of Battle: 18 Ldr,  69 Sq-Eq (10 Crews, 7 AE, 23.5 Elite, 33.5 1st/2nd Line), 49 SWs (HMG, 8 MMG, 20 LMG, 6 ATR, 5 Lt MTR, 9 DC), 7 Guns (4x PaK38, 3x PaK40), 4 AFVs (Pz IIIH, one Veh crew on-foot).

AFTERMATH (7 Game Turns): Overcast weather continues for the second day. he Ad hoc coy promised by HQ did not enter today (a dr of 2 or less was needed, see LHR 24), instead, two Russian rifle companies were shipped over and charge towards the front line from the ferry camp, to reinforce and replace casualties along the front.

-  Russian 150+mm artillery is called down on German position in the Bread Factory sector and rubble a hex with German troops and force other Germans that have advanced into the Russian lines, up front, to accept close combat that goes bad for them, since the artillery hindered any sensible retreat. Despite the initial success with the artillery, it is denied Battery Access several times (Black, Red, Red, Red, Black, Black, Red) and its last fire mission strikes friendly troops and eliminates two Russian squads (scatters from pre-reg hex in wrong direction 3 hexes). The perimeter of the area is much the same as from the start, due to the Hvy Arty.

Along the rest of the perimeter (factory sector to the Volga sector) both sides slug it out and little gains are made, except along the shoreline where the Russians are pushed back 250m, and the German have started to outflank the Commissar House. In the attack against the Red House, another name for it, two times a German squad becomes berserk and charge towards it, almost as if frustrated by the fanatical defenders that easily pumped lead at them, at point-blank range as they bounced against the walls and denied entry into the fortified building.

German Casualties: 0 Ldr, 14.5 Sq-Eq, 12 SWs, 2 Guns, 2 AFVs (one Recall).
Russian Casualties: 1 Ldr, 19 Sq-Eq, 10 SWs.

Ska ryssen lyckas hämta sig från detta eller är det kört...? 😵💫😬

Tysken kan bara kalla in 9 coy de nästföljande 9 dagarna (30 Oct - 7 Nov). 8-11 Nov, kan de sista 4 AE coy tas in. 12-15 Nov bör coy vara slut.

Ryssen kan kalla in 22 coy till gentemot tyskens 13 ovan. Vi får se om tysken kan slutföra anfallet, återstår att ta kontroll på en stor fabrik, och 8 multi-hex buildings.

AFTERMATH (7 Game Turns): The German intention today is made clear as several German elite infantry formations attacked the last Russian controlled factory hall in the area with support of panzers and heavy artillery.  200 fanatic Russian soldiers, mostly Militia, opened fired and desperate protective fire to held off the aggressor, the Germans suffered early losses entering into the factory. A Pz IIIH is knocked out and burst into blaze as a hidden Russian T-70 opens fire, but is quickly eliminated in close combat by stosstruppen. heavy artillery directed by a spotter plane starts to blast the Russian troops both inside and outside the factory and the defenders quickly crumble, and soon the factory fall into full German control, although not without significant losses. The only survivor among the factory defender is a Russian officer that routed out from it the others that also routed out are moved down as they attempt to cross the street of fire, Thereafter, the German continue to push further east of the factory hall towards the wooden buildings area where the Russian scramble a new defense line ,many thanks to the sole survivor from the factory, and tough fighting continue until the battle ends. At the Bread factory area down south, the Germans launch a probing attack but first when the factory have been conquered, and comes to a halt when the Russian reserves are activated.

In the Commissar House - Apothecary - Volga sector, the Germans have planned a more defensive mode. The Russian call down a barrage (9 hexes - 360 m) along the German front line and successfully blast several of these defenders into bits, and the Russians are quick to launch an attack after the barrage have been lifted and eliminates the last pockets of defense in the frontline building. The German spotter plane start to call down heavy artillery upon the Commissar House, Apothecary and other buildings, several of them catch fire and at the same time the Russian offb´d Observer call down artillery upon the Germans. Towards the end of the battle, several single hex buildings around the Commissar House is taken control by the Russians, due to the many machine guns raking the German defense line that are also hammered by the artillery. Another bloody battle for both sides and the Germans still pushes towards the Volga, minor victories and accomplishment by the Russians do not change that fact.

OKH have sent a message: The next 7 days (1-7 Nov) they only have 3 Rifle Coy, 3 Sturm Coy and 1 Pionier Coy to send to the front line. Then the Reserve pool is emptied, 4 fresh Pioneer Coy being flown from Germany are on its way, they will reach Stalingrad and the front line between 8-12 November.

Try to erase and shrink the Russian stronghold into pockets, and then the Pioneers can finish off the last resistance pockets. Paulus wants his promotion to Field marshal, it depends on you.

Then we can concentrate and resume our attack on the Red October district and erase the Martinovski to rubble. God Luck and shake the dice well, only precision dice can do it.

STAVKA have sent a message: The next 2 weeks 1-15 November they only have 17 Coy more to send but 2/3 are Elite companies that are being transferred across the Volga as you read this, hold out, only excuse is death.

The German attack in the Red October sector has stalled, and it must be fought to a standstill here too, otherwise if we fall Red October will surely fall too.

The Germans had predicted the battle to be over by now, and are planning a last ditch effort with their last reserves. Be prepared and hold out for Mother Russia, without her life is not worth living anyway. Use precision and concentrate on keeping ROF on your barrels along the streets the Germans will soon try to cross in force. Vodka ration have been increased to remedy the physical and stress upon your soldiers, do not let the Vodka fall into enemy hands, drink up. Chuikov is watching over you.

Så det föll till slut alltså…

Bra kämpat ändå! Nu känns det som det var längesen jag såg en rysk seger.

Efteranalys, tysken fick en bra start med 8 Turns andra CG Day, och tittade på matematiken för CPP Replenishment, första veckan (18 - 23 Oct) där tysken slår fram mellan 6-7 CPP mer på sex DR slag än ryssen i snitt. Tror att det spelade roll i slutändan, om det varit tvärtom att CG Day 18 Oct hade varit 5 Turns istället och ryssen fått 6-7 CPP mer än tysken istället, första veckan hade kampanjen nog fortsatt till fjärde veckan.

Kommer tillkomma några nya Leaflet House rules som vi diskuterar fram och tänkt att spela med hädanefter.

- Första blir att båda slår varsitt CPP Replenishment DR och använder det högre DR av de två slagen.

Exempel: första 6 CG Days one player roll a string of

DR 10, 11, 7, 10, 9, 5 samtidigt som den andra spelaren slår en serie av

DR 3, 6, 7, 4, 3, 8 Ett bevis på att ett fåtal slag kan tilta en kampanj.

Med den ny regeln ska det inte kunna hända och då gäller de följande DR om båda spelarna slog DR som ovan.

DR 10, 11, 7, 10, 9, 8 Fördelen blir även att kampanjen blir mer snabbspelad och mindre i omfattning. 

Har några få idéer till men måste räkna på om de ska implementeras eller inte.
