TR 42-45 1.5.2 - ALLIED vs Mark - T080: 11.12.43

T080: 11.12.43

Sector: Batumi - Black Sea Coast
After months of fighting, the Germans have finally punched their way into Batumi. This in turn forced the scuttling of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, as it was the final port hex on the Black Sea. Not a huge loss, but symbolic at least. In a way, though, I can now fall back to stronger defensive positions in front of Kutaisi and concentrate elsewhere.
