Balt situation in FY: a case study

Posted: August 3, 2011 in AAR, Rus Mod

Screens taken from an ongoing game as Southern Whites in August 1919

 

This game offers some interesting insights about the Balt situation in FY.

Contrary to the official version of RUS, German Freikorps and Poland are independent factions, AI driven, pursuing their own political and military agendas. Enemies to Red they are a menace too for the Southern Whites player, controlling Yudenich forces, activated by use of an option and Baltic forces (Estonian, Latvian and Lettons forces).

In AUgust 19, YUdenich is at the Petrograd gates, but the city seems to be heavily garrisoned. In the same time, Poland has taken the upper hand by seizing Vilnius and Riga, forcing S. Whites player to use against the larger part of the Estonian forces.

Poles have captured Misnsk too.

The Red AI is certainly devoting most of its forces against Siberian Whites and Southern Whites in the Kuban area. Siberians have been chased from the Volga banks and they have to face some green uprising.
