colwyn?
what for?

I'm planning on holding the salient and that city will get me a extra redguard unit per turn or two. Its near a kolective and a undiscovered coal mine.

Commanders don't forget that you can throw your red army troops into battle and if they fail they will become partisans this winter! ie Rostov could do about 4, kursk 3, Its better for them to appear and attack during our turn than be surrounded and slaughted when appearing in the german turn.

The tank must have gotten lost b/c it appeared near gomel just as my partisans were going to attack the german units around it. In a heroic act of solidarity the Su122 joined in the attack knocked out a Pzk IV and then sheltered in gomel.

But yes next turn I'll make sure I don't move any units that are homed to one of your cities esp since now since both yours and mine units are in some of your cities.

that is not the problem, I don't mind to let you a unit if you needed to, what when did I build that unit? it is only possible to do it in winter and I already have one the first turn?
also, I think kursk was building cossack cavalry

[Colwyn]

It appeared b/c

After summer 41 any remaining

Stalin line's turn into La5's
Villages turn into Su-122's

Normally these are all killed by the germans in summer 41.

didn't know that
what is b/c???

if you need again any of my units I have no problem with it, but ask me first please

[Colwyn]

B/C

is short for "because"

If your offering I'll have them all, heheheh only joking.

I normally wouldn't move anyones unit, except by mistake or in the case of the su-122 it was close to gomel already. (damn if I only rehomed it elsewhere you wouldn't have noticed)

signing out save

Economic Report for month of December 1941

IMPORTANT! There is still a stack with a bomber on it where Narva used to be! Someone downloaded the wrong save someware! THEY MUST BE DESTROYED!

Opening balance: 2,326(,000) Rubles
Closing balance: 828(,000) Rubles

Tax Rates:
40% Tax
50% Science
10% Luxaries

Next technology to research: Public Poll suggested "War Productivity" but my suggestion is "Advanced Flight III" if we want to get decent ground attack aircraft before Summer.

Rushbuys:

Baracks in Bransk (disagreement between front commanders on this I did what seemed best)
Tank Hunter in Kursk
Anti-tank defences in Zangalov
Red Guards in Perekop, Krasnodor, Murmansk, Viipuri
Cossaks in Kandalashka

Suggestions:
The choice of production in Rostov and Voronezh perplexes me as they have enough sheilds stockpiled to produce a KV-1, suggest our Marshal corrects this.
Many of our Red army divisions have been promoted to Red Guard status, these must be moved to the front lines from cities in the hinterland.

Requests:
Forwarding requests from front commanders to the Marshal who has duristiction here:
Airlift of Kayusha from Sverdlovsk to Smolensk
Airlift of "someting" from "someware in the Urals" to Murmansk.

Work has finaly began on improving Oil production in the Caucuses, but we still need more workers! The cities of Maikop, Starvopol and Baku have began drafting citizens in labour brigades to help.

A new KV-1 has arrived in Batumi ready for transport by sea. Newly promoted Red Guard units from the Caucuses are heading towards the frontlines for transfer tot he 2nd Ukranian Front.

Armaments ministers budget: whatever you see fit (suggestion: more airports?).

vorozneh will build a tank hunter this turn, for now on the city will start thinking about his defenses for summer, don´t change it marshall pleae

[Ben Kenobi]

19 Units surrendered. Among these was the feared Karl Seige mortar which has now been brought to Moscow taking part in parades on the Red Square.

News item for the next Pravda.

Nice to see that Karl falter. We should rebuild a city as Narva to honor the fallen soldiers of the Rodina.

[conmcb25]

The Narva Pile is Kaput!

I used the NKVD Trooper to do it just like Henrik.

There must be a cash bonus for killing a Karl. Im up to 1628 rubles, which is 800 more than Greenyov had.

I guess that means a "spending spree" after Siblingov plays.

We will give him till wednesday 0300 GMT to play. Then I will do it.

While we have this pause I would like the Front Commanders to post in there threads what there plans are for the next turn. This is after all a Democracy Game.

I had a concern or two expressed to me about us moving too fast. Must be my PBEM background as the "Bump King"

So after the next turn we are going to pause for 12 hours to give front commanders time to analyze the file and post what they are going to do that turn. That will give the non players a chance to comment.

Does this sound like a plan? If anyone has serious heartburn with this please post here.

If it was up to me alone I would push these turns along but its not really fair to the people not actively playing.

Lets try it and see how it works OK?

SIBLINGOV the Rodina awaits......
