@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

although the preceding events are simply stupid, stalingrad as a whole represented the turn of the tide against Germany.

It started with a sweep into the city preceded by a massive bombing campaign, but eventually the fighting in the streets and the houses grew excruciatingly intense

Entire soviet regiments were wiped out in defense of Stalingrad

Eventually the intense Soviet defense held and they began to push back the Germans, and pushed them into the small area where they remained under siege.

Had the weather on the harsh steppe landscape not been so, well, *harsh*, the Germans may have been able to escape or at least hold out a bit longer. However, that didn’t come to be.

Gonna check this

I’m not joking

iirc an entire Guards regiment was wiped out fighting in the city square @Alluvallaton
