Once again, they resupply their troops. Though the red tabs in the corner show they are low on supplies. The gap is widened. They push north a little bit more. Down here, they also move enough troops to reconnect the south. There are a series of attacks along the line. They hit a series of weak spots. Our losses are still high. But the snow is here now! Time to bring the thunder. The offensive is on. I hit them in the south as well. It seems that being limited to one port has some effects. We're on the move. The south is not spared this treatment. I continue this down the line. A general advance is underway. I'm unable to advance much here, but I'm able to move some troops up. I cut the major rail line here. I then move on to cleaning up the trapped units. Several units surrender to my troops. These guys are annoyingly resilient however. I'll have to try again next week – though ever week they are trapped is burning through their supplies. The south of the neck is also annoyingly well defended. That's not to say I don't start constricting – but the men here have been fighting for months, and the formations much more worn down. I strike weak points as normal. I of course pay special attention to the Panzer units. The line north of Kiev breaks. As does this section. I continue the offensive in the south. These guys force back a large number of enemy troops. This Romanian unit shatters. As does this unit – I push forwards to continue to cut their lines. They have taken a port here, so they will be getting some supplies – but as we have seen in the north, this is not going to keep them strong for long. I have spiked their losses however. Not a bad start for turn 1! Next Update
