  1. in the same light question: Since Barbarossa is/was rife with logistical mayhem and dividing the huge german army in tHREE groups.....why couldnt mr H and OKH focus more than 60% of forces on TAKINg leningrad first (forget moscow hub, forget Kiev wheat fields, forget even further Baku oil fiellds) ..then HAVE a port and FULL control over the baltic sea and have a hassle free input of resources to Leningrad......then from there mount the second thrust (up to60% ?) towards the moscow hub....probably stuck in winter 41 as welll...BUT NOT to be pushed back because of LACK of sufficient supplies ! Then in 42 full thrust/envelop on Moscow and shwoop down into the Ukraine wheat fields...and perhaps trodding in direction of Stalingrad...in 43 follows Baku..all the while halting soviet piss poor advances from the urals towards Moscow over the ONE and ONLY mainroad and railway lines....from the east..
