Several Moscow 42 Questions

[ComradeP]

After checking the point values objectives and doing some math with likely casualty figures and their points value, I'm beginning to wonder if the Germans can't win a big victory by bleeding the Soviets because objectives are not worth all that much relative to the points given by inflicting casualties. It depends on the casualty ratio, but I have a suspicion that a bit more of an incentive to hold the rear area objectives by giving some of them a higher points value wouldn't hurt, but I'd have to play a campaign game for any kind of real conclusion.

The main thing that keeps surprising me about unit movement is the difference between German motorized infantry unit movement rates and that of the Soviet infantry in winter. In summer, the latter would be able to move 3 clear hexes, the former 4. In winter, the latter can move 1 hex, the former 2, so their relative mobility advantage is more substantial than it is in summer, even though the weather is much worse.
