No, I will not send comrade yopov to the gulag if the attack does fail. Half of the appeal of this plan is that the price of failure is very low. Now if a large assault plan fails...

I think you are referring to the attack on Kholm
I must say you are right, we won't loose Murmansk if we do this attack <-> if we attack to early on other fronts, we might loose some cities and a lot of unitsOnly the dead have seen the end of war - PlatoComment

Those armored infantry help the Murmansk front's defensive effort quite a bit too.
Although they may end up in leningrad since Leningrad did lose it's sea port which hurt production there badly.
Also, you lost a cruiser or destroyer, can't remember which right now in the far upper left corner of the map to a german submarine. you must be careful with that next convoy!Comment

I noticed it.

I know that in one season, a submarine emerges every (two?) turns in the upper left corner. I put a destroyer there to kill them as soon as possible.Only the dead have seen the end of war - PlatoComment

The destroyer I put there to kill them was destroyed.

BTW Yopov if you are still taking a poll I say go for it.
Start with the two in or near Murmansk and follow it up with one from Kandalaksha. (He can reinforce if you are successfull.)
I still say its worth a try. Im still betting that city is lightly defended. You may even run into an odd Infantry coming your way leaving that city even less defended.
Thats how sure of himself the enemy is comrade.
(Thats what happened to me when I tried this in my last game.)
Good luck my fingers and toes are crossed for you comrade.*"Winning is still the goal, and we cannot win if we lose (gawd, that was brilliant - you can quote me on that if you want. And con - I don't want to see that in your sig."- BetaComment

Send a destroyer or cruiser, because otherwise they will get lots of submarines in that part of the sea, which will make it even harder to get a convoy throughOnly the dead have seen the end of war - PlatoComment

*Airlifted a first convoy into Baku. It will be available for trade next turn.
*Moved some units into the fortresses in central Finland.
*Moved troops to the Norwegian border. (2 Red Guards)
*Killed 1 Finnish infantery in central Finland
*Killed a tank outside Kitela
*Killed 2 Feldhaubitzes outside Viipuri
Here is a picture of the front: Soviet troops all over the place, Finnish nowhere to be seen.

We have launched a raid against Hammersfest! Just see to it that you don't overreach, comrade Yopov, we might not be able to help you with many unitsOnly the dead have seen the end of war - PlatoComment

It appears the fearsome Finnish infantry has suffered a horrible setback, and are no where to be seen. I believe this is most likely the most secure of all the fronts. Good job comrade Yopovitch.Comment

Yes, he took the front at a very bad position, and now he is even reconquering cities

Not REconquering, just conquering. I don't think he has lost any city! His attacks are gaining momentum, soon the Germans and Finnish will not be able to stop him! If he continues this way, he could be in Berlin before we launch an assault on Minsk and Kiev
