Barbarossa Turn 27

Mud in the north, clear elsewhere, but only AGS was in a position to batter against the quickly strengthening Soviet positions.

AGN manages one attack.

AGC manages two attacks.

AGS switches back to Kiev and makes four attacks,
finally getting some success.

While the Rumanians close the ring on Odessa.

A study of the rules and the map layout around Tallin indicates it is pretty impregnable.

Leningrad is going to be the same,
especially as the Axis forces are rather limited.

But the main thrust is towards Moscow.

It is hard to see, but the Soviets have pulled back into Kiev rather than risk getting cut off.

Odessa will be an interesting siege. 

Playing what is now six separate games as one big game is not without its challenges, although they tend to be minor (maybe - variation to rail capacity and conversion up or down by 1 or 2).  The main challenge remains the physical one of reaching across the table to pick up counter stacks and not flip them or knock them.  Calls for a lot of dexterity!
