  2. at 17:09 instead of emphasizing on tanks..perhaps it is better to emphasize on heavy artillery guns in a sector. It is tactical bombers (stukas, he111, ju88 etc) which is given good attention here, then artillery concentrations(fairly underwhelmed ) and ultimately tanks (lots of attention, even though the numbers are ridiculously low as to its effectiveness in the field at this point of time) that overrun..that causes hammering, pounding and breakthroughs in a sector. The soviets know this as they are building a HUGE amount of artillery and heavy mortars to be sent to the fronts from the years to come. My advice..when there is an important sector (attacks that are thwarted ..or attacks that are succesfull) what are the disposition of the artillery on both sides... Thanx.

  3. and better than railways (of different width(gauge)) to Leningrad, you have the free unhindered acces of the Baltic Sea towards Leningrad. Didnt the Kriegsmarine (and you Logistics affectionados) realise this ?
