Dog Fight - Ostkreig Tournament Round 2

[Ricky B]

Soviet Turn 13.

The win seems assured, but the Germans continue to put up a hard fight. One of my towns in the center fell to the Germans, increasing the pressure on the rear of the bridgehead and threatening to collapse the western flank of it. However, the Germans are running out of time as my forces push upon their rear along the river. In the west, I have moved adjacent to 2 artillery units along with 2 AT guns, my plan will be to try and overrun all of them this turn. And in the east, the cavalry is poised to break out and there isn't much the Germans can do to stop that, due to disruption.



The Germans show signs of exhaustion this turn, as 3 of the infantry units attacking my central bridgehead disrupt from my artillery fire. This leaves 5 of the 8 frontline units disrupted at the end of my turn. They may rally in their following turn, but I am more confident of holding on there knowing that the Germans must be nearly burned out.

My western attack doesn't accomplish much, as my own fatigue levels are high. I do overrun an already disrupted gun unit there but that is about it. The cavalry pushed forward in the east also, but do not break out.
