Turn 90 Saratov expected to fall shortly into axis

With the situation on the western front it is paramount to not lose units.
Its like with all tactics games. If a 10:8 becomes a 4:2 the unit difference is still the same but the odds massively shifted.

Also maybe take units back from Russian front now. There is no gain if u capture the last Russian stronghold in turn 95 instead of 99.
But if slowing down these 4 turns free a unit right now that can be in the west at turn 97 - its a plus!

Turn 90 there have been some sporadic successes in the air

Good thought I need to do more of that, although I am excited to finish CCCP right now

Turn 90 suddenly, the Norway U-Boat fleet is moving for an attack to Scapa Flow, in order to divert their airforce into the sea

this is the idea, pressure is immense in Normandy.
I have been trying everything I can think off

Try to build a second line somewhere further east, e.g. Paris

Nice, but where is the Hungarian cavalry? Duedeman has proved that these modern followers of General George A. Custer are capable to gallop into Scapa Flow.

Don't tell me that these cunning riders are now hiding in the u-boats, that would be quite unexpected for sure!
