That looks about right, holding Tallinn in 1941 is doable with naval-infantry and AA batteries being essentail. In my last game I managed to keep Voroshilovgrad but lost Viebsk, neccesitating a brief battle close to Moscow before winter-hit. Holding Perekop would be very useful keeping them out of the Crimea but realisticaly, the best we can hope for is holding it for as long as possible and counterattcking in the winter. If we can hols that line we will be doing very well, especialy since apparently MGE AI is considerably harder than in FW. We will need to heavily defend some cites in front of this line simply to slow the Axis down, NKVD units and when we can build them KV-1s are good for this as they can take-out several German tanks before dieing.

I agree with the defensive line in every theatre with the exception of the Ukraine. IMHO we should make an effort to hold Perekop, Gomel, Kharkov, Beograd, Voroshilovgrad and Kursk as well.

I like the idea of trying to hold Perekop, but I don't think it is necessarily the most prudent thing to do. It might be better to fall back to Rostov, Sevastopol, and Kerch. The rest of the front seems doable.

I dont mind setting the defensive line here but we must realise that it WILL NOT be possible to hold all those cities, it will just be the cities where we will stand and fight to the last man!
p.s. Shaka! you missed Tallinn!
holding that city should keep Leiningrad safe!

Somebody should set up a poll to decide where the front will be.

I would want to try and hold Perekop for as long as possible because if Sevastopol falls it's a b*tch to retake, and if we can hold the crimea it provides a exelent staging point for the winter '42/'43 and winter '43/'42 offensives. Mabe even a grand encirlement! Sevastopol is useful for lauching amphibious landings from also.

i've got a question, what kind of defences should we be leaving behind the front to guard against air attack? someone said moscow is within bomber range already. Do we gut all the rear defences and rush those units to the front?
If Perekop is captured, events tell the AI to make a full swing invasion of Sevestpol. Those Karls are bastards to destroy in Summer 1942. Easier just to try to hold Perekop, at least till the first winter.

the Karls can be destroy with the navy at sevastopol,
I don´t know how difficult is going to be to hold perekop,
enough units for perekop, rostov staligrad....
H Tower,
the first line of cities should have at least 2 AA bateries and around 3 KV1 when possible, then it is very easy to hold the city,
the second line must have 1 AA batery, but it is not a good idea to buy them the first summer
