    Guys I want you to help me understand where all the Russian units are.

    I see one territory that has two LABELS (1st AG amd 2nd) whatever those are.

    Meanwhile there are a thousand ruskies placed in this upper bar.

    As you can see, THERE IS NO WAY TO ASSOCIATE the units in the upper bar with the two little icons that look so small and innocent but likely have 500 armor units in them hahaha

    Also want to know what a 1AG is. What is AG

    and are there special flying units too? THANKS

  • @trout But your paras had to fly OVER western france where there was AA guns. And France itself. Either way your UK paras had to fly over AA guns I thought.

    Question: What is the benefit of having 2 or more AA guns?

    @johnnycat Good morning. AAA can shoot at paras but have to be in the territory itself. Holland and S France were both completely empty

    Well I had a mini rally so gonna go ahead and roll this out.

    There's some complex thing's going on, so I'm gonna screenshot some of it, so you can see how it works.

    I'm gonna use Army Group North to attack Vyborg. I have to fight that battle in edit, because we need to use the AG Flag for it's bonus.

    Triplea counts it as a HitPoint and the mod doesn't, so we roll in edit and select casualties manually the way we would on the physical board.

    Also, I only have the one attack besides a SBR. If I switch to edit at end of CM and do combat, it'll throw a error.

    The solution is to make an unintended attack so there will be two attacks happening, the Sub attack in 125 doesn't count either or work for what we want.

    So I will send 1 Inf to Belarus and then edit it back and any hits after combat, just so edit will work correctly for us.

    Edit
    A lot of this will be self explanatory for you but I'm gonna break it down so it can be linked as a teaching tool for others 🙂

    Here we go 🙂

    First thing, we will remove the SSR Bases, as the Soviets can kill them at no cost and at any time during battle. They don't have to, if they think they'll take it back on their turn for example but that's obviously not the case here and no need for the Reich to capture them intact.

    We are also going to activate 2nd Corps for the SSR in Yenisey but we will wait and do it in CombatMove ( CM )

    We will move Commisar3 from the Overflow Box to Yenisey so it can activate the 3 Tanks in 2nd Corps. Only one of the Tanks will get the bonus roll, along with the Commisar per the rules.

    We move the Inactive Commisar to 2nd Corps Box as 1st Corps is already active in the Caucasus.

    Then we move Army Group North to it's Box and it's units to the board. I like to move all the units to the boards as well as the individual Army/Corps Tokens and then move the Token s to their Boxes and move them to the board.

    Then move them all from their originating Territory at once to where they are attacking. Once one becomes more experienced you can skip some of these steps if you'd like. Just need it all to match up at the end of CM 🙂

    Short break 🙂

    OK we're all loaded up on Vyborg. I need to do a false attack so I can use edit for the AG Flag mentined above. I will send 1 Inf to Bryank.

    OK here we go. I will turn edit on after the fake battle in Bryansk.

    So we turn on Edit and then hit "Actions" Top Right

    Battle begins

    Soviet Gunners were off their mark. No AA Hits. We just select zero.

    Screenshot from 2026-03-23 10-50-53.png

    The Reich hits hard ! An easy 3 above their weight 🙂

    Screenshot from 2026-03-23 10-52-13.png

    Select 17 hits. They are all obvious so no need to ask our opponent.

    Screenshot from 2026-03-23 10-54-10.png

    Oh tough duty for Uncle Joe probably a easy 3 below average

    Screenshot from 2026-03-23 10-55-33.png

    Army Group North is now inactive due to battle losses, so we take the 5 hits on Infantry and then the AG Flag as well for an additional hit.

    Screenshot from 2026-03-23 10-57-08.png

    This is why we play it in edit, as even 1 or 2 units can make a big impact in large battles.

    Pretty much an average roll for Jerry here but it will be enough to send Ivan to his grave, if he gets one 🙂

    Screenshot from 2026-03-23 11-00-31.png

    Uggh even his dying grasp is a below average hit total and the Vyborg Army will suffer a Major defeat.

    A Brutal 73 PU swing for Ivan.
