Ouch. I’m surprised you attacked southern russia. It was a 50/50 with projected -20 TUV swing unless I’m missing something. Also if you lose that battle then Germany should be able to take Moscow which would pretty much be game over? Just curious on if I misplayed that or if you decided to take the gamble.

About the battle in southern russia - I calced 51%, but if you assume the AA misses on all 4 shots then it is 60% and TUV swing is also then positive for the attacker. Given the allies are backed into a corner with the axis rush, I probably would have attacked with even lower odds, 40% even.

You’re right disaster in this battle would have been the end for Russia, but Russian odds on the German stack were only going to get worse on every following round. Meanwhile German income would have been unstoppable and would have easily had enough to defend the Western front and still hold southern russia. Germany stacked next to moscow tends to kill russia pretty fast as rule of thumb, so a unit for unit trade was a pretty good deal for russia. The stack next to Moscow pretty much forced Russia to take that gamble, so it was not necessarily a bad move to force that since the odds were pretty good too for it to go in Germanys favor.

Gotcha just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something and I agree that if you didn’t take the gamble then it probably keeps getting worse unless the UK can make something happen. Just tough luck I guess with the way the dice played out as if it would have been a more even battle with only a few Russian or Germany units surviving then its probably a different game with the Germans being able to continue to push. Definitely was surprised to see the 62 TUV swing but it happens. Gonna be tough to come back from a major defeat of that scale but I’ll play on a few more rounds to see what happens.
