Requests for rush-buy, august 1942, Murmansk front:

*cossacks in Viipuri
*cossacks in Murmansk

The ANZAC · June 14, 2003, 10:15

I guess develop the Yak and then move onto the new tanks in Assault Artillery.

,
nothing very important
but if we have money they are a few katyushas waiting to be built

The ANZAC · June 14, 2003, 17:16

Aug '42, NW Front

Kat in Demyansk, Steel Mill in Vologda and Yaroslavl, maybe in a turn or 2. Just a heads up.

Colwyn · June 15, 2003, 22:25

Aug Belorussian Front

After taking Warsaw and Brest I am in short supply of all units!

Important requests :

Brest : Barracks
Kaluga : Kayusha
Gomel : AA
Red Guards in many salient cities and Pavlov

Kirov Tank works in Warsaw next turn!

greeny · June 16, 2003, 13:11

This turn I suggest the active trade convoy in Groznyy be rehomed to Groznyy and sent to Baku or Maikop.

greeny · June 16, 2003, 13:58

Armaments Ministry requests for August 1942:

Grain Elevator: Kirov (110k), Yarensk (26k), ufa (36k)
Steel Mill: Krasnovishesk (390k), Petropavlovsk (180k)
Barraks: Magnitogosrsk (70k)

You could rush-cuild Convoy System in Vorkuta for 516k but it will be ready in 2 turn regardless so thiers not much point.

Buy my reconing you're going to have more money than you know what to do with so feel free to rushbuy any other city improvments being produced which will take more than one turn to build.

EZRhino · June 17, 2003, 00:50

I dont think you can rehome trade units.

Sure you can. The trade units are currently "NON".

If a unit is in Baku for instance when it is in the city just click on the trade unit to activate it and then hit "Support from this ciyty" on the orders menu. Viola it is now "Homed" or supported by Baku.

EZRhino · June 17, 2003, 02:06

Im sorry, thats not quite what I meant. The convoys in Groznyy are homed to the UK.

You can still rehome them by using "Support from this city" on the orders menu. I think YOP is rehoming all the units originating in the UK to UK units.

that is correct, however we have several non convoys as well that are coming through from Iran into ashkahbad and shipped across the Caspian Sea to Baku.

Time for tech choosing and opinions again:
The three main choices: (left out one tech that would lead to a air defense technology).
Advanced Research: Research labs, and is one tech removed from the tech necessary for tankograd if people want it.

122mm: Allows us to research Mobile Warfare IV. Mobile Warfare IV gives us the Joseph Stalin tank, but only by summer of 1944!

Assault Artillery: Will give us Su-152 tank hunter for summer of 1943. It's an upgrade of Su-122. Cost 70, attack 15, defense 6, Hit Points 3, Firepower 2, and summer movement of 4. Will not ignore anti-tank defenses.

I recommend assault artillery, for it will give us the new unit the fastest. We should have plenty of time alter to go after Mobile Warfare IV. And Tankograd and Research Labs seem uneeded when we are averaging one tech per turn! (at least with convoys).

The good news comrades is that right now we have the best equipment for the war we will have in a while, the new T-34's and the Yak's are the last "great" tech breakthrough.

Until 1943 anyway, right?

Belorussian requests for September

My supply lines are stretched thin, more units needed.

Important rush buys:

Lodz - Anti tank def
Vilnius - Barracks
Bialystok - Artillery
Brest - T34/85
Nikov - La5

Others - usual red guards per turn

We selected to build a wonder in warsaw too soon, I need barracks first the wonder.

Airlift request of units to Smolensk, Nikov and Minsk preferably Kv1's and T334's

Bossy20000 · June 20, 2003, 05:04

I think we should research assault artillery first! It gives our troops new arms faster then the others.

PinkyGen · June 20, 2003, 20:37

Comrades,
Now that Kiev is once again flying the Hammer and Sickle, the Ukranian Soil Wonder is once again in our possession. This means we will have no further use for Grain elevators. I suggest we cease building of grain elevators at once.

I wouldn't sell the exisiting one's just yet, I would wait for Kiev to be reinforced just in case the Nazi's can take it back. But in 1 or 2 turns we should sell all the grain elevators.

H Tower · June 20, 2003, 23:53

If we're discovering techs so fast that we don't even need to research a new one for quite awhile, how about we devote more taxes to revenue and less to the science rate? Slow it down to 4 turns per tech maybe, or even more since the convoys are giving us such a big boost

PinkyGen · June 21, 2003, 00:14

I'd be in favor of four or five turns, but not anything below that because of the Nemo's guidelines.

H Tower · June 21, 2003, 00:24

we'd still be getting the techs every 4 or 5 turns because of the convoy beaker bonus.

EZRhino · June 21, 2003, 01:05

Ok, I will try to manage it to space out the techs a bit more evenly

greeny · June 24, 2003, 14:04

Armaments Ministry requests for Sept. 1942
