Interesting, in version 1.9, I landed through 46:41 and 47:41 only

Not many people would get that far with so little prestige

Did you try to destroy the coastal battery on 52,41 in your latest attemps?

Or rather via 47,41 and 49,41?

Idk, but mp replay of opponent's turns is a known issue

It's a game bug

Capture and hold is the rule to prevent D Day

So, after the last failed attempt, my new goals are from turn 17:

- Recapture Moscow, hold it with minimal force
- Full priority to the capture of Grozny and the rest of the Caucasus
- Capture faster and with less casualty Novorissysk and eliminate the Soviet forces SE of it
- Clear the Black Sea ...

It might be faster than via land

The airport is empty in the first turn, don't know how long though, maybe land units or paratroopers. It's outside Sevastopol. If you have the airport and most of your airforce there, you can clear all of the Black Sea Fleet from there. Plus soften Poti area.

Any thoughts on whether it could be faster through the Black Sea to Baku vs. over land, e.g., by capturing the Kerch airport in Crimea early and then eliminating the Black Sea fleet, landing in early winter between Sotschi and Poti?

I am still wondering how fast Baku could be captured

Are you planning to go through the Black Sea to Baku?

Baku/Caucasus: around 20–25%
Moscow: around 15–20%
Leningrad: around 10–15%

Reduction of Soviet reinforcements

@McGuba

We probably asked, but

1., How much % less units gets the CCCP after Leningrad, Caucasus Moscow fall and when the effects start?

2., After how many turns are the Soviets weakened in Leningrad and with what numbers?

Hi, Field Marshalls, another status update.
This time I made until turn 46 - but I will back to turn 17. :shock:
Why, why why?? Again the question arises. :D

Well, I could survive the horrors of the winter of 1942-43. But I paid a high price. A lot of casualties, only inf, but still.

And ...

Yes, I feel with you on the reload. So Moscow, oil, Leningrad?

In my playthrough these ports were blocked. I had a unit in the port at the time and it remained there. But as soon as i moved it out of the port, it couldnt go back in. There is no animation showing it blocked (it looks as usual), but you cannot move units there.

Obviously,
I expected the ...

While I did not finish my last Italian campaign and also a few dozens turn away of ending BE 2.4 - Kursk save for Total victory, I could not resist and started playing the 2.5.1 from the little scenarios onward! :oops: :roll: 8) :lol:

First of all thank you again, McGuba for this wonderful mod ...
