Yeah, some map knowledge did help, but recon aircraft and the SdKfz 232 helped with the details. Since the map is fairly "small" - due to the additional starting positions in the SE - it was clear by turn 2 that any serious block seemed unlikely.

Kharkov ‘42 Upgrade: 2cm Flakvierling to 88 FlaK 36, 2x Bf 109F to Bf 109G Bought: 1x SU-6, 1x Bf 110G, 1x Pz IB, 1x T-60, 2x Brückenpioniere Infantry: 1. Pioniere (truck) 2. Pioniere (truck) 3.

There is an option for "unlimited zoom" IIRC, this has to be active.

Dang, too late

FWIW I'd argue that covering your tanks with ATs is counterproductive if you're trying to maximise prestige, as the extra losses you sustain probably cost you less prestige than you can earn from the undamaged Soviet tanks, at least as long as you're fielding mainly cheaper units. Yeah, I came to t...

Yeah, the AA guns and my overall rush (and the Soviet tanks attacking 88 protected units) are the 2-3k I am refering to, but maybe it was more than that ;) Well, since discouraging tank attacks via AT guns does not seem to work I will try to refrain from switching my AA into AT mode unless using the...

15k prestige in Moscow, yikes, I managed just a bit above 9k unless I forgot to add some in scenario replacements I did, but still even 5k is very much.

Acutally I have no idea where I lost those. I have an idea about 2-3k, but 5k...

Moscow With Steve having released Aurora C# this took way longer than expected, but finally I managed to complete Moscow. Upgraded:1x 2cm Flakvierling 38 to 8,8cm FlaK 36, 1x Bf109E to Bf 109F, 1x Bf 110D to Bf 110F Bought: 1x Fallschirmjäger, 2x T-50, 1x Panzer IIF Starting Prestige: 32.680 - 86/8...

Good work :) Fairly similar approach to what I am doing, but I am using just 2 paras here and T-50s instead of T-34s and no Flammpanzers here. I tried to force my way into Moscow first and even succeeded, but the prestige gains were too low for my taste. Going with the large encirclement for my curr...

Semi-blind in the first run as well, played it once before during my General campaign.

Yeah, actually restarted Moscow once already. Winning in time is not the main problem, doing it with acceptable casualties/prestige gains is the challenge here. I think I will have to replace more often during the scenario here.

Been tinkering with the first turn on and off for a couple of hours now, but I can find no way to get any good encirclements here, except for Tula. It seems like it will have to be small encirclments and otherwise a slow and sytematic push with some more small encirlcements when the opportunity pres...

Very nice prestige overall, you are 6-7k ahead of me by now

Nice, which negative traits did you pick?

Yeah, just starting with Moscow here, will not be easy

I agree that other infantry - with the exception of Conscripts/Brückenpioniere/Cav - need at least some CD as well and Gebirgsjäger need slightly more than the 2 they already have. At the moment taking Pioniere is the way to go when trying to get the most out of the slots IMO. +2 / +3 for '43 Wehr s...

And there is a very good Soviet SPAA.

Rostov Upgraded:1x 10,5cm leFH 18 to 15cm sFH 18, 1x Bf109E to Bf 109F, Do 17Z to Do 217E Bought: 1x StuG IIIB Starting Prestige: 27.796 - 80/80 slots Infantry: 1. Pioniere (half-track 8MP) 2.

Had this one in my first run, IIRC it makes any unit move like a recon.
