I'm looking to set up an Eastern Front winter operational battle in the near future. Working on the scenery and the last bit of the troops at present.
I've set up a spreadsheet to work out the points for the respective armies - applying the national quality multipliers and based on the T&OE for 1941. Working off 2,000 points I have got the Russians 2 infantry divisions, a tank division, a ski battalion, a cavalry division, an independent tank brigade and still am short of the 2,000 point tally!
Giving the Germans 1,000 points and the multipliers I can just about muster 1 infantry division!
Do I increase the German points tally? Do I give the Germans more leeway to choose the units they want? Have I got the sums right?
Anyone got an example of previous operational battle lists I can work from?
Ta!

you need a 2 to 1 advantage for the attacker
Defenders need at least 6 or 7 combat commands to form a defence.
An artillery battalion can be used as a defensive combat command.
Don't forget we usually put in a free Green battalion in the town and 3 infantry,1 AA and 1 armoured car stand at the airfield
Mark is right with the ratios. We could also bath tub the units and have a battalion represent a regiment - this allows you to have all the different units without swamping the players.
