The Soviets realized early on that it was going to be a war of attrition

Something the German commanders refused to realize

and Hitler actually had a better grasp on

Well, that wasn’t the ONLY hole in the German strategy. Obviously there are he traditional ones but

TIK had a good quote about it where the Germans were used to the European chessboard and not the Eurasian Go Board

The german commanders were pretty dumb in theyre planned strategy to take over the USSR @Honey Beanger

Rush Moscow gonna capitulate like France lol xd

Even if Stalin lost Moscow through magick

He wouldnt give up he would throw the entire fucking Soviet Union between him if need be

And most of the industry was in the urals already so

@Alluvallaton The Wehrmacht’s entire strategy was based on fast, combined arms rushes to capitals. It’s how they overran Europe. When the fighting bogged down in Russia as a result of several issues, mostly fuel shortages, weather, and miscommunication, they started getting fucked. The Germans started to lose men faster than they could replace them whereas the Soviets could keep pumping out shitloads of soldiers for their war effort due to their simply massive population.

stalingrad is a good example of this
