Merry Christmas Moscow!

Finally, finally beaten Blitzkrieg: Moscow!

I restarted the Campaign on release and I've got to the end at last. 2nd Time through on Moscow after a horrendous slaughter first time around (due to hubris).

Finished up with these fine soldiers:

Waffen SS:
SS Viking (commendation for holding a flank pretty much by themselves in Moscow!)
75mm FK18

Wehrmacht (all the specs other than Scrambling):
6 x Inf 41
2 x H Inf 41 (Motorized) (One commanded by Guderian)
1 x Engineer 41
1 x Mountain Inf 41
1 x PzKw 38(t) E
2 x PzKw III J
2 x PzKw IV F1
2 x FlaK 88
1 x 17cm K 18
1 x SturmPanzer I
1 x StuG III D
1 x Armoured Train
1 x SdKfz 7/1
1 x Bf 109 F (with Barkhorn)
1 x Bf 110 E
2 x Fw 190 A
4 x Ju-87D Stuke (one with Batcher)
2 x Arado 196

Standout Stats:

214 Engagements for the non-Guderian H. Inf commissioned in Mlawa
43 Kills for one of the Inf 41 I recruited at Warsaw, who also took the most Casualties with 124 (1 recon, 27 Inf, 5 tank, 3 AT, 2 AA and 5 structures)
433 Damage for both the PzKw IV F1 that I upgraded from the initial Tank in Mlawa and the PzKw III J that I bought on that scenario

Congratulations :D , what difficulty level you played? I won this scn during the beta-tests at 3rd level of difficulty (Major).
Now I play Blitzkrieg at 4th level (Generalmajor), currently fighting in Smolensk, so soon will try to win Moscow at a higher diifficulty.

Congratulations, General Shards!

Now you have to decide if you core units should solidarise with the enemy over christmas or not. :)

Just beat New Georgia at Captain difficulty, getting back into the game slowly. If you have a recommendation for the next campaign (Marines, Winter War, Blitzkrieg), let me know. Might play the Japanese Campaign later, not so much a fan of the Morning Sun scenario.
