At first glance looks like a very easy scenario and the first turns seem to prove this. But as you get further down south the soviet resistance stiffens and you have to fight hard and take care of your core units. :grumpy OpenGen 0.93.5.0 * 16 Jul 2022 * AI version: 2.00 (2014) Efile folder: C:\OGra...

My Ground Forces were outfitted with fast speed to reach the oil resources early enough.

Although the principle task is very simple, attack from the west to the Volga, in performing it proves difficult to get their in time for a BV.

Have the freezing in playing scenarios very seldom.

hoza

In this the scenario timing is important. You must capture the Stalingrad VHs in time so you can send part of your troops to the south for defense and especially a larger part to the north to recapture Yerzovka and Samovalovka which cannot be defended against russian attack from the north while you ...

Well a fine scenario and due to my airborne battle group I could reach BV in far away Bataysk VH. Wonder if it would be possible to reach pp hexes down there in deep south if one does not go for BV. But I am a Blitzkrieger. :) :grumpy OpenGen 0.93.5.0 * 16 Jul 2022 * AI version: 2.00 (2014) Efile fo...

Okay but for me the scenario had an interesting course. I could live with it.

hoza

The russians can embark. I sunk an embarked AD unit in turn 7. I will send you a picture by e-mail because I do not know how to attach it here. And I thought that motorboats could not conquer ports!?

hoza

Sure I discovered the speedboats but decided to neglect them because they could not conquer hexes. Only when I discoverd that russian ground units must have embarked in Azov and sailed across the Azovskyie more and conquered Taganrog I had to react.

hoza

Interim report 2: The russian counterattack on Taganrog really was a bad surprise. Had to reorder Brandenburger and the Marine back to west. Luckily I had large part of Luftwaffe which attacked at Kameno stationed on airfield near Prokrovskoye for refueling. This way they could assist the Marine in ...

hoza

yes it does. My fault, looked for them as reinforces.

hoza

Interim report. Started with a fierce attack at Kameno. Had to put nearly all valuable ground units (arty, tanks, pioneers) and airforce to this. Still heavy fights in turn 4 because the airdefence in this area is really strong. In the south my Marine moved to the east and the Kamikaze speed boats (...

hoza

Easy to win but it is a bit difficult to decide which defense points to attack in which order. You have to concentrate on one after one and must not be distracted from this goal by sending your bombers to various other aims. :grumpy OpenGen 0.93.5.0 * 16 Jul 2022 * AI version: 2.00 (2014) Efile fold...

One of the few scenarios where the soviets really start a counterattack against german VH/SH in the south and try to recapture their VH in the north. Also pp-collection is not easy because nearly all of the widespread pp-objectives are defended. Italians and a small german battlegroup coming down fr...

hoza

A scenario with far away VHs is very well suited for my airbattlegroup approach. Could have collected some more pp but this is very tedious because the russian units are widespread and well entrenched. By the way the Dicker Max is far too slow for my Blitzkrieg approach. I will sell it. It is only u...

hoza

What makes my strategy complicated is the planning of coordinated moves of [C]-units, airborne units with building units to provide them with airfields in due time and the Liberator to collect as much pp as possible. But I am not complaining because this keeps an oldie awake. :) :grumpy OpenGen 0.93...

Was not easy to reach BV because of VHs dispersed all over the huge map and partisans and scattered units trying to reconquer them. :grumpy OpenGen 0.93.5.0 * 16 Jul 2022 * AI version: 2.00 (2014) Efile folder: C:\OGran\efile_atomic\ * Efile version: ATOMIC EFILE Version: 17th July 2024 Campaign: 19...

It is a matter of speed because Argos is far away for ground units and you have to cross the heavily defended Corinth Canal. And up there in the N the greek cavalry tries to reconquer Aliartos which is binding troops there. Solution was my airgroup approach with the Brandenburger jumping into Argos....

If you want to use your Marine you have to build a port first. Fast built is very useful for pioneers. My airborne battlegroup conquered Kifisokhori in the first move and with air fields built there could fast move further to the SE. Ground troops would come behind them to clear the rest. :grumpy Op...
