Request: 6-sided die x 2 5 3 Message from Soviet: Two attempted overruns on the German Mech Mov part of turn 3: 1st roll: 17Pz attacks hidden unit at 1617. Attacks at 8 v ???? The unit at 1617 is revealed to be the 161st 8-8-6 which is doubled for the river to 16 defense making this first roll a 1-2. 2nd roll: Similarly 10Pz attacks the unknown at 1523. 8v ??? The unit at 1523 is revealed to be the 117th rifle division a 3-7-6 whose defense is doubled for the river to 14 making this roll another 1-2. Dangerous attacks. |
| 52 | 4/19/2021 3:21:00 AM | Turn 3 | German | Message |
Two see how they roll out overrun attempts. 1. 17Pz attacks hidden unit at 1617. Attacks at 8 v ???? 2. Similarly 10Pz attacks the unknown at 1523. 8v ??? On split A1s I'll take a loss on a 2-10 regiment. On staright A1,A2s I'll retreat. On an Ae... oops. |
| 51 | 4/18/2021 8:19:00 AM | Turn 3 | Soviet | Message |
4 roll is a D2 against this stack and I'll let you retreat those units and decide on whether to advance. |
| 50 | 4/18/2021 8:18:00 AM | Turn 3 | Soviet | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 4 Message from Soviet: Sorry, I missed the line about the attack at 1516. The reveal in 1516 shows the 172nd 1-3-6 and the 13th a 1-1-6 rifle divisions. That makes 25 to 4 making this attack a 6-1 using the 17th Pz and the 26th infantry. |
| 49 | 4/18/2021 1:31:00 AM | Turn 3 | German | Message |
Yes the A1 is sensible for the Germans as there is no overrun possibility in the mech phase. You need to do the roll for the other attack (on 1516). |
| 48 | 4/17/2021 12:09:00 PM | Turn 3 | Soviet | Message |
Not the 6 roll that I was hoping for and the 5 roll gives a D2/A1 result. This eliminates both Soviet rifle divisions. I assume that you will retreat 1 instead of taking the step loss. |
| 47 | 4/17/2021 12:06:00 PM | Turn 3 | Soviet | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 5 Message from Soviet: German attack on Orsha: Reveal turns up the 137th rifle 5-5-6 and the 38th 2-2-6. Both are unsupplied and halved down to 2 and 1 defense and those 3 defense factors are doubled in the city to 6 defense. 40 attack vs 6 defense gives a 6-1 attack. This roll is for the Orsha attack. |
| 46 | 4/17/2021 2:30:00 AM | Turn 3 | German | Message |
Attack on 2 unrevealed units at 1516. 9-7 inf and 17Pz have a combined strength of 25. Am going to leave 1514 for now. 20Pz won't attack either. Orsha surround attack. 29Mot [12], 12Pz [16] and 20Mot [12] have a combined strength of 40. You have 2 OOS units in a major city. Zeros? Eights? Who knows. |
| 45 | 4/17/2021 2:24:00 AM | Turn 3 | German | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 3 Message from German: Attack v known defender. 19Pz and Lehr Rgt attack surrounded disrupted 2-4-6 at 1313. 19 v modified 2 gives 9:1 odds. After this there are attacks against unknowns. |
| 44 | 4/16/2021 9:33:00 AM | Turn 3 | Soviet | Message |
A2 result and the 7th Pz retreats. |
| 43 | 4/16/2021 9:32:00 AM | Turn 3 | Soviet | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 6 Message from Soviet: Soviet unit at 1522 is revealed to be the 50th rifle division, a 9-8-6, the best Soviet rifle division. This makes the odds 1-1 since he is supplied and doubled behind the river. 7th Pz attacks with 16 factors vs 16 factors to start the turn 3 German combats. |
| 42 | 4/16/2021 2:03:00 AM | Turn 3 | German | Message |
Three files sent with moves and overruns. Will start the combat phase against your unknown unit at 1522. 7Pz will have a strength of 16, but what lies beyond the river? Over to you to roll. |
| 41 | 4/16/2021 1:54:00 AM | Turn 3 | German | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 4 Message from German: 1314 roll at 4:1. |

Both D2. 19Pz attempts to overrun again, 7mps spent so far. This will be another 4:1. File sent before rolling with a few more moves to do east of Vitebsk. |
| 39 | 4/16/2021 1:36:00 AM | Turn 3 | German | Die roll request |

Had been toying with another overrun in the south but went for split moves instead. Germans have taken Vitebsk. |
| 34 | 4/13/2021 1:18:00 AM | Turn 2 | German | Message |
Soviet D markers: go to the Show/Hide markers button. It is the pink background one to the right of the yellow background die. Clicking it reveals a window above the map and to the left of the scrolling log. It probably has a 1 in a square showing. Drag the right side of that box to see more options and scroll down. The bottom one is a German control marker. Go up three and you have the Soviet D marker. I think you can drag those on to the map. |
| 33 | 4/11/2021 8:49:00 AM | Turn 2 | Soviet | Message |
A 4 roll gets a D2 result and the 143rd can retreat thru the Soviet stack at 0420 into either 0321 or 0421. 12th Pz automatically advances into 0520. |
| 32 | 4/11/2021 8:46:00 AM | Turn 2 | Soviet | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 4 Message from Soviet: Overrun attempt of the untried Soviet in 0520 by the 12th Pz which spent 5 movement points to get to 0620 and another 3 for the overrun attempt. Reveal brings up the 143rd Rifle division, a 1-3-6, which is halved due to lack of supply down to a 1 defense which makes this an 8-1 assault. |
| 31 | 4/11/2021 7:31:00 AM | Turn 2 | German | Message |
D2 pushes the 2-4-6 back to 1115. Next overrun attempt is 12Pz v untried unit at 0520. Attacking Germans have a strength of 8 v ?? OOS regt. I then have two divisions in the south to move. |
| 30 | 4/11/2021 7:23:00 AM | Turn 2 | German | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 2 Message from German: 18Mot to 0913. 7Pz retreats the 2-4-6 NE and spends 3mp (so 2 left perhaps) to attempt another overrun on it. Attacker 8 strength v OOS defender down to 2 strength. 8:2 goes on the 4:1 column. |
| 29 | 4/9/2021 2:20:00 PM | Turn 2 | Soviet | Message |
You get some good rolls. D2 against the 134th in 0812 eliminates that unit. D1 against the 73rd rifle 2-4-6 in 0816 retreats him 1 space. |
| 28 | 4/9/2021 2:17:00 PM | Turn 2 | Soviet | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 2 2 2 Message from Soviet: German Overruns in the Mech movement phase of Turn 2: 1st roll: 18mot v unsupplied 3-3-6 at 0812. 6:1 column. 2nd roll. 7Pz v untried Sov at 0816. Unsupplied, but in forest. Ger 8 v Sov ?? This Soviet unit is revealed to be the 73rd rifle a 2-4-6 which is halved to 2 and doubled for the woods to 4. This makes this overrun a 2-1. |

T2 Mech phase, first overruns. 1. 18mot v unsupplied 3-3-6 at 0812. 6:1 column. You roll, but it is really about whether I get an A1. 2. 7Pz v untried Sov at 0816. Unsupplied, but in forest. Will wait for result as will impact 12Pz move, especially. Ger 8 v Sov ?? |
| 26 | 4/9/2021 1:31:00 PM | Turn 2 | German | Message |
You go to 1029. I go to 0827 and 0828. Mech move later. |
| 25 | 4/7/2021 9:29:00 AM | Turn 2 | Soviet | Message |
Attack on the Soviet unit at 0929 gets a D1/A1 result. I will retreat 1 space. There are 3 options for you, either 1029, 0930 or 0829. I assume that you will retreat and if you retreat the Soviet to 0829 then your retreat would be both units to 0827, otherwise they will split between 0827 and 0828. |

You get a good roll, a 1, against the 167th Rifle and draw first blood getting a De result. |
| 10 | 4/2/2021 8:38:00 AM | Turn 1 | Soviet | Die roll request |
Request: 6-sided die x 1 1 Message from Soviet: On the 1st attack the 4 roll under 4-1 gives a D1 result and the 134th retreats to 0614. You may advance into 0515. One the 2nd attack the 6 roll under 1-1 gives an A2 result and the 20th Pz will retreat back to 0316 and 0317 unless you want to take 2 step losses. Combat 3. 7Pz and 14Mot v untried unit in 0518. 8x 2 and 6x2 give me another 28 attacking strength. You retreat SE then S. Advance tbd. 0518 reveals the Soviet 167th Rifle division a 2-2-6 which is supplied and doubled in the woods to 4 defense. This makes this attack a 7-1 which is this roll. |

Advance tbd but into 0617 at least. 0617 is revealed to be the 26th armor 5-10 which is supplied and doubled to 10 defense in the woods. This makes the attack a 1-1. The 2nd roll is for this attack. |

Just working out how to approach this! |
| 6 | 3/29/2021 4:28:00 PM | Turn 1 | Soviet | Message |
I found that the Vassal map is incorrect on the line for the German interdiction ability. It states in the rules that "Air Interdiction Markers may be placed no further east than the 4000 hexrow (inclusive) unless the German player controls both hexes of Smolensk." Rule 13.2. You had placed them in the 4100 row. I'll send the Soviet setup placement vlog file and you can change these. This will slighly affect the Soviet ability to rail out of X area. |

Request: 6-sided die x 3 3 3 6 Message from Soviet: Thanks for the info about bringing in multiple Russians. That helps. I'm working on the setup and need to make some initial rolls for the Soviets. 1st roll is for the turn 1 provisional reinforcement of 1 rifle division 2nd roll is for the 16th army in 2216. In each of these last two rolls, 1-3 means it can move. 4-6 it stays. 3rd roll is for the 19th army in 1414. |
