Here is a Stalingrad 42 question

[Rev Rico]

Glenn, you probably fixed these armies because they didn't join the fight until the 24th. Actually some weren't even in place until then.

Michael, to edit this, I don't think you should mark both entire armies "T RELEASE" en masse. Visibility to frontline untis would release these armies much sooner than they should be. I'd suggest doing that only with indiv formations in the rear. Maybe even spreading out the rear Rifle Divs slightly so the Germans cannot slip through. That said, if the "T RELEASE" edit is used I'd also recommend moving the T mode Russian mobile units further north since they weren't in place until a couple days later. Just in case, the Germans do decide to explore this option.

Dog Soldier, historically the only reason would be to threaten the northern prong's supply lines. A valid reason if not viable with the forces available. The Germans were so fixated on The City that any idea of a mobile battle elsewhere wasn't considered. German players can experiment with other options. I did it against Krak to remove the northern threat, plain and simple, and I was taking davantage of the scn FIXED design.

Just my thoughts,
Bob
