Field artilley shells the Russian Marine near Königsberg, a Tiger division throws it back into the sea.
Guderian attacks Stalingrad, killing a regular Rifle div -- and taking that town??! I expected much stiffer resistance. Anyway, this will make Stalin very angry, I hope. And shows that the German army can still bite... No more annoying partisans for a while! And three planes were destroyed in the process, too.
So what do I do with my other fast moving units I prepared for this surprise offensive? The job is already accomplished.
Elite Inf corp kills Cavalry at Rostov. Mech Inf kills Militia on the road to Voronezh. Panther div Army attacks Rifle div and Fortress division in Voronezh. Army at 8/16. Panther Corp destroys Flak position and liberates Voronezh, destroying two more planes. HA shells Fortress div south of Voronezh. A Tiger div attacks, but dies and promotes the Fortress div to 2/4. More HA is brought into position, and then a Panzer corps finally takes the hill.
Panther corp defeats T34 corp in Tula and promotes (5/8). Next Panther corp defeats a Light Tank and promotes as well (8/8)! Two Inf Armies now attack Tula and kill an Artillery and a Militia, but Tula still holds.
Inf div destroys Yak on airfield near Stalingrad. More HB destroy railway lines to Stalingrad and Voronesh.
HA shells Fortress divs near Riga, but hits only once.
BTW: how many VPs does capturing a town give? Doesn't look like it's the standard 100 per pop?!
