Orel or Kursk??

[Shaka Naldur]

well, which city do we try to defend?
I think we'll have one aa battery, 1kv1 and some red guards and cossacks,
which one do we try to defend???

Shaka:

Some of us lack the save and could use more information as to the state of the front and the recommendations of the front commander.

Without that information, I'd have to flip a coin.

Ditto

You need to make it obvious why you are asking Shaka.

I believe Shaka has already chosen, check out his front thread

after looking the file I think it will be better to hold Orel, Ithink we can do it,
kursk is not defendible in my opnion

[Bossy20000]

I voted Orel, because I think we can defend it, and Kursk not, but Kursk is still the home city of our fortified positions, so we need to be prepared for their loss! This will leave some weaker spots in our defenseline.

I'm thinking Kursk because I'd like to see the fortified positions stay on the Don to block Germans trying to bypass the city. Also, I can see in the summer of '43 tons of German units appearing right outside Orel causing havoc...

[Shaka Naldur]

there will be units all over the place,
and there is just one square between Belgorod and Kursk, so it will be very easy for the nazis to attack it
between kursk and Orel there are two squares and a forest one, that is going to take at least four movements to attack Orel

let's go to Orel,

and now about the fortified positions,
we have two su-122, 3 t34/85 and one or two 35/74
enough to haunt the nazis units hanging around

[Ben Kenobi]

Sounds like the fortified positions are well under hand.

Orel it is.
