starting prestige 4200
prestige after overstrengthing/upgrades 47
ending prestige 860
DV on turn 18 of 18

Phew, after that last battle, I probably have an all-time record repair bill. I bought two Wespes to try to replace some of my lost artillery units. I had to be very picky about which units I overstrengthd but in the end, it worked out well. My strategy was to send the majority of my troops on the offensive to retake the objectives in the southern part of the map and I was actually able to get a DV on turn 6 but I chose to let the game drag on until the last turn so that I could get a bit more prestige, lord knows I need it. Overall, an easier scenario and a much appreciated breather after the difficult battles of Kursk, especially Prokhorovka. It was also nice to have a pleasant defensive scenario, it has been quite a while since we had one of those and I am always especially fond of them.

General, 1942 DLC Imported core (beta test). This was rather easy (of course almost anything would seem easy after Kursk!). DV on 5/18. The German forts really held up the Russians until my armored units could arrive and smash the Reds.

I think it is too easy to win this scenario by "accident".

What do you think? How about urging Kerensky to go back to the drawing board for this one?
I really think it needs some changes.

Kerensky actually responds to these concerns in the Beta 2 thread for this scenario. I actually played the Beta 2 version and erroneously put my feedback here

I'll use a different strategy on this scenario next time. I'll be prestige farming in a big way!
