On this day, 80 years ago, the Battle of Stalingrad began. In this battle, the losses of the belligerents are more than the United States and Great Britain lost in the entire WWII. Enlisted has a whole separate campaign dedicated to Stalingrad. At the same time, the developers have done nothing for this memorable day, no events, no promotions, no awards, absolutely nothing…
A foreign belligerent went into another sovereign country and surrounded a city while subjecting its inhabitants to constant barrage and harrassment?
Sounds like ancient history, to me. 
The developers also missed:
The Battle of Kursk. July 5.
I’d argue that they already have the maps and assets to do so, and I think there’d be decent interest in an event that was vehicle-oriented…I just don’t know if the vehicular combat could be sustained or at what level they could actually create battles…5 vs 5 seems too small but 10 vs 10, given what we’ve all seen with vehicles in game, would be a complete shit show.
Soviets lost more than all nations combined through the war over 20 million
German/ Axis losses in Stalingrad: 747,300–868,374
German/ Axis losses in Stalingrad: 662.000
(And that with only 70k Allied deaths while the Soviets lost million of people against a smaller army. Heck, they even lost more material in SG than the Axis forces)
Luftwaffe/ Axis lost 2,4k planes in Africa, in Russia 1,7k (in return they lost more tanks there).
And all that without the “mighty” T-34.
Funy enough Goebbels called the Tunisian campaign Tunisgrad, putting it on the same level as Stalingrad. Just because the Russians have the tradition to waste their soldiers they think they single-handed the war.
100-200k more (at higher “costs”)… so much
today is also national ice cream in the usa
Today is also the emoji day
ah so we should start a war against emojis
Go foward im behind you
Unfortunately The appeasement policy of Britain and France led to Soviet casualties (and French surrender?)
Where did you get the date of 17 of July from ?
This is not correct, even shitty Wikipedia gives the dates as 23 August '42 to 2 February '43.
“Fall Blau” only kicked off on 28 June so most of the German divisions of Army Groups A and B were still smashing through to the Don in July.
Those numbers don’t quite look right what source are you quoting from ?
Usually, when calculating the losses of Axis powers in Stalingrad, many people will make two mistakes:
First, only considering the German 6th army and the 24th armored army of the 4th armored army in the city, we can only get a small loss of 330000;
Second, the loss of the servant country is not counted.
According to the official propaganda of the Soviet Union, the real loss of the axis powers in Stalingrad was 1.5 million, as recorded in Zhukov’s memoirs:
Obviously, this figure is much more than 330000. According to the principle of “self-report”, it is not credible.
Granz’s statistics are at least 950000:
As of February 2, 1943, five group armies had disappeared from the battle sequence of the axis forces on the eastern front, including about 300000 members of the 6th group army and the former 4th armored group army of Germany, 230000 members of the 3rd and 4th group armies of Romania, 221875 members of the 8th group army of Italy and 204334 members of the 2nd group army of Hungary. As these group armies suffered catastrophic losses, most of them have been transferred out of the operational area, which reduced the total strength of the axis forces on the eastern front to about 1million (this 1million should specifically refer to combatants rather than total strength).
The figure below can be said to clearly illustrate the data. From the beginning to the end of Stalingrad, the military strength of the axis powers on the eastern front was directly reduced by 740000. Of course, if the supplementary troops were included, this data could only be higher.
74/374 ≈ 19.7%, in other words, after the battle of Stalingrad, the axis powers had nearly a fifth less troops than before.
In the end, the gap of German troops became larger and larger, and began to snowball.
On April 1st, 1943, the German army on the eastern front had 147 infantry divisions and 22 armored divisions, totaling 2.732 million people, 1336 tanks and 6360 artillery.
On April 3, 1943, the Red Army had 5.792 million people, which was equivalent to 500 divisions, and was supported by more than 6000 tanks and 20000 artillery.
The data of the Soviet army does not include 1066000 hospitalized people, and 47. 5% of the troops of the Ministry of internal affairs Million, including 718000 troops directly under the National Defense Commission.
The total number of soldiers in the Soviet army is 9.486 million.
From a strategic point of view, the German Don River group army group was very dangerous after the battle of Stalingrad, and the a group army group in the Caucasus was in danger of being cut off, and Rostov was in a precarious situation.
Finally, after the third Kharkov battle, the Soviet Union and Germany formed the Kursk salient. In the Kursk region half a year later, the Soviet Union and Germany will break out at the turning point of the Second World War in a real sense.
Unfortunately, the Soviet Invasion of Poland, the Baltics and the failed Winter War/ Hitler-Stalin Pact lead to Polish, Baltic and Finnish casualities (and Polish capitulation?).
So much for ignoring me. Cool.
Wiki
?
What now?
With the fall of the Afrikakorps, the Axis more or less lost their remaining control about the Mediterranen Sea and opened the gate to Europe for the Western Allies (yeah. Who could have guessed that Italy is in Europe?). The Invasion of Sicily and later on Mainland Italy lead to the collapse of the Mussolini regime and first front in Western Europe (long before the Soviets reached Poland or Romania).
Fail
Impressive.
hardly, the Wiki entry for the Battle of Stalingrad alone contradicts your rambling. No need to go to actual sources.
You dont even show any data.
So either come with something or shut up and let the adult talk.
