Please elaborate on your deployment TO choice!

I'm sure it is. The only non-Soviet players who can see it are S. HEAT, Mantis, and PanzerPelle (the scenario designer.)Heinz57 said:Presuming this is a secure forum, but if it isn't
I totally agree! Don't get caught up in the emotion of keeping the pocket sealed!!!!Heinz57 said:Applying 2nd Gds as a blocking force or for defensive actions blunts its offensive potential. Stalingrad is worth a max of 30 VP...120 Vp reside well outside the pocket.
Relieving the pocket does not change this! (Hmm ... the briefing says 2% in another area.)6th Armee is beginning to starve to death. Supply is low and there are no reinforcements. The cold and harsh winter condition is simulated with a pestilence effect of 1% after turn 8 and very low replacement rate. Do not attack if you can avoid it. The units of 6th Armee do not reconstituate.
No, but a lot of the northern units are still frozen until turn 4.Keef said:i am going north! and i am thinking of going on turn 2... is it against the rules to start little saturn on turn on turn 2?
So far ... I'm the only one who has voted for the deployment plus one TO option. I plan to deploy north and take the "DON Front Reinforcements" TO. (I think this is by far the best Soviet TO.) So that's one deployment and one non-deployment TO.JoeBob said:Okay, if I've got this straight, we are aiming for one deployment TO, and one non-deployment TO.
Since it's likely the Axis will penetrate the * perimeter and release Don front reserves, then there is no need to choose that as a TO.
So I'm thinking I will go with Little Saturn (non-deployment), and 2nd Guards for the North (deployment) for my two TO's. This will limit the Axis player to 2 TO's as well, which I think is what we want.
Question: No one seems to be voting for 2nd Guards central deployment. Seems like that could serve two purposes: to pressure the Stalingrad pocket and/or swing North and create problems there as well.
Any thoughts?
I am playing Bruce who I fought to a draw as Allies in round 3, so I believe we are evenly matched opponents. Pursuing the historical options could help to swing things my way, if I'm understanding the posts correctly.
Decisons, decisions...
