Murmansk Front HQ - Page 4

Hmmm... we must not get too overzealous though! Our people are being tortured by the brutal Gestapo in the south, and it would be folly to believe we can save our glorious nation on one front against Nazi lackeys!

Nevertheless, if Comrade Yopov can hold these cities, and possibly conquer more during spring and summer, then all seems well for Murmansk in the winter, when we can kill even more Nazis!

Bossy20000 · May 20, 2003, 05:15

I haven't forgotten all our citizens and soldiers killed by the Germans and their lackeys! We should remind them, in our harts and minds, but we must also be optimistic, not pessimistic! We have to put objectives, which seem hard to accomplish, but then we reach them and go beyond them. Our possibilities might be limitless, we only have to try!

Frozzy · May 20, 2003, 05:28

No country has EVER successfully invaded Russia. Under our glorius leadership of Comrade Stalin, leading us under the Communist Ideal, there is nothing stopping us from victory!

Comrade Yopov and the rest of the Front Commanders deserves accalaims of the highest order! Without them, and our glorious Marshall, we would have been speaking German and Finnish long ago!

Bossy20000 · May 20, 2003, 05:41

When winter is over, we should consider handing out some more medals. We have to reward our front commanders, and we haven't got spare units nor money, so a medal is the best thing to give

Henrik · May 20, 2003, 07:16

Go easy on the medals, if you hand them out all the time you'll soon end up with none left to give at all...

Bossy20000 · May 20, 2003, 07:24

I didn't say we had to hand out medals for everything every turn, but we could give a medal for best perfoming commader every season. It's not like we have given away hundreds of medals. A medal from time to time motivates people (especially when they have to accomplish something for it)

Henrik · May 20, 2003, 07:25

We only have so many different medals though comrade.

It's fine as long as we don't overdo it.

In the worst case scenario I'll just have to make a few more

Says the man who already has two...

Bossy20000 · May 20, 2003, 12:48

even more

take his medals back, we will see what says then

Just kidding

Xenozod · May 20, 2003, 16:51

"Thank your heroes for their heroic deeds, or you'll soon find no heroes and their heroic deeds!"

Then again:

"Isn't Victory in itself reward?"

Vote Xenozod for Politburo.

Bossy20000 · May 21, 2003, 10:55

We should thank them, and medals are the cheapest way of doing so, because we can't reward them with units nor money. (We could try sending some women, but I don't think everybody will approve. The same thing with vodka)

The Economic Ministry requests: that the next arctic convoy be airlifted to Grozneyy this month.

Ditto!

Bossy20000 · May 24, 2003, 05:54

we need the money (we start to sound like capitalists

)

yop73 · May 24, 2003, 11:05

This month's events:
*1 German Wehrmacht SG killed on the mountains in Norway
*2 Finnish infantery killed in the woods of inner Finland
*1 convoy airlifted to Baku. (Because Grozny had already conducted an airlift operation, I couldn't airlift it to that city)

Shaka Naldur · May 24, 2003, 13:57

what about the nazi city in the north of norway??

yop73 · May 24, 2003, 14:57

Troops are closing in on it, but I couldn't yet attack the city this turn.

I think Hammerfest is due north of the unit that is damaged.

Yop knew the assault would have to be in April. He and I already went thru that. Having to take out an Infantry and sustain a Red Guard being damaged is really going to make the assault interesting...........

Yop I didn't see any other Red Guards following up, do you have a third about a turn behind the first two?

yop73 · May 24, 2003, 16:15

No, I don't. I used that one to kill some Finnish.
They were threatening Kandalashka.

Bossy20000 · May 24, 2003, 16:36

Do you think this attack can still succeed? If so, go for it, if not, go back into defensive positions and prepare to attack the Finnish in the summer.

yop73 · May 26, 2003, 11:56

Russian troops were very succesful this month.

*2 Finnish infantery killed in central Finland
*Finnish panzergrenadiers killed north of Kandalshka. The had foolishly moved onto a swamp square where they were an easy target for our katyushkas
*German infantery south of Hammerfest killed
*German infantery in Hammerfest killed. No garrisson is there anymore. Hopefully the city will be captured next month

I have a question though, is it absolutely imparitive that you keep both Mechanized Infantry? or can we send one of them down to Leningrad for the Baltic Front to use?

Bossy20000 · May 26, 2003, 14:37

Soon we will take the first nazi city! The war is now also going to be fought in their cities!

yop73 · May 26, 2003, 14:46

Both mech. infantery have their uses. But if the Baltic front needs one desperately, I could send one up.

Henrik · May 26, 2003, 15:43

I have no such desperate need.
I am a little perplexed about the units in Tikhvin though, the city have been given to my front I believe, but the units guarding it are homed to your cities. Do you want me to have them (as you've left them there for a long time now) or should I leave them alone?

Most of them I believe are reguler red army units. Some one should make partisans out of them or turn them into sheilds. Thats just my suggestion.

Henrik · May 27, 2003, 00:57

But who gets to make that choise?

I think you and Yop can work something out.

If you need to move them next turn is summer!
