It is commonly believed that the Nazi army was unprepared for winter on the Eastern front. But is the converse also true that Soviet troops did NOT face winter hardship because they were “used to it”? Did Soviet troops truly have adequate winter clothing? Was it rare for Soviets to freeze to death?

One thing to consider is that the winter wasn't a surprise to the Germans.

Many of their division, corps and army commanders were young soldiers in the Imperial Army in WW1. A large number had served for years on the Eastern front or had told "war stories" to their Western front compatriots. They absolutely knew it was rough.

The reason the winter was a problem was multifaceted

  1. The German plan has expected destruction of the main Soviet field armies in the first 6 weeks. This they largely achieved but they were shocked at the scale of Soviet reserve capacity.

Therefore they did not plan on or equip for heavy winter combat, more of a "Romp" as they did in 1917 after the Revolution and a quick mop up of remaining Soviet forces.

  1. As other commentators have mentioned, the Soviets were retreating into their own LOCs which of course has a force multiplying effect. The Germans were clearly near culmination even by their own reckoning by the time they closed in on Moscow.

  2. The Far East factor. Once Japan declared war on the US, Stalin could gamble on pulling a large number of fully equipped, winterized divisions from the Far East command with far less concern for the Kwangtung Army rolling into Vladivostok.

Those units had a significant impact disproportionate to their numbers. The fact that they began appearing in strength as the Germans were culminating simply increased their value in counterattack.

One interesting hypothetical has always been if Japan had delayed against the US and instead attacked the USSR in late 41.

I'm sort of coming around to this these days too that its much overblown that the Wehrmacht "wasn't expecting the winter" at all. By August of 1941 Hitler himself was starting to advise his subordinates that they should expect fighting well into next year-which meant through the winter. Halder-the great pessimist-found Hitler's depression in midsummer to be confusing and still took until the Autumn to come around to the realization that the Soviet Union was not going to be defeated that year.

It's true that there was little in the way of a "Plan B" but the fallback expectation was that if nothing else-they had at least done so much damage and destroyed so much of the Red Army that there was no chance of the Russians being ready for an offensive that winter and thus the German Army's frontal "workload" would consist of just getting through the winter. This situation looked just like the Sitzkrieg in 1940 right? Just deactivate a certain number of Divisions "up to" whatever the Reichsbahn could handle and screen the frontline lightly enough to discourage attempts to cut the major rail lines and counter attack the serious (but localized) breakthroughs with Romanian/Hungarian/Italian reservists. The January offensive of course completely smashed that presupposition and forced the German Army into having to come out and give battle in what was actually the coldest and snowiest winter in Russia in over 40 years.

The Russians actually still failed by the way, the German Army was mostly able to avoid any serious losses in men and material and inflicted quite a lot of both on the Red Army. However, it rattled Hitler and OKW to see that the Red Army was not only unfinished but already prepared to turn the front around on them and start pushing. It was the shock of how quickly the Red Army recovered from Barbarossa that then led to the next summer's fateful decision to go-for-broke at Stalingrad.

> The Soviets on the other hand, weren't advancing

The Soviets were advancing when temperatures were at their lowest in December and January. The cold was arguably a bigger issue for the Red Army than the German army. The Germans were the ones retreating, and they destroyed every piece of infrastructure that could provide shelter or warmth for the advancing Red Army. Rokossovsky also noted that the Soviets lacked the equipment to move off-road through the snow, so the Red Army was unable to use its superior manpower to envelop German positions and instead had to attack head-on.

IS3Q (World Quality) vs IS3R (World Momentum) vs IWDA (MSCI World) – what would you pick?

Posted by Upper_Particular_758 · in r/ETFs · 15 days ago

Hi everyone,

I’m currently investing through DEGIRO and I hold IS3Q (World Quality) and IS3R (World Momentum). I originally went for these factor ETFs mainly because of their past performance compared to the broad market. Of course, I know past performance doesn’t equal future performance.

Lately, however, I’ve noticed that these factors have actually been underperforming compared to the broad IWDA (MSCI World). That’s making me wonder if it would be smarter (and simpler) to just stick with IWDA instead of trying to tilt towards factors.

So I’m curious: why would someone choose the factor ETFs (Quality or Momentum) over IWDA, or the other way around? What are the main reasons behind your choice?

Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

I'm no expert with these factor indexes and ETFs, but the parameters that dictate whether a share gets screened or not is largely arbitrary and more likely than not based on ensuring the backdating makes the screened index / ETF outperform the base index.

I could make my own index / ETF based on the colour of company logos. Some colours must be more successful than others. Hey presto, I've beaten the index.

The only upside is that all the active parts of the index / ETF have been preloaded into the fee so the funds should be pretty cheap.

Upper_Particular_758 · OP · 15 days ago

That makes sense, and indeed it feels like these "newer" factor ETFs are positioned in a way that they hold shares that have been doing well over the past 10 years, which is pretty easy to do considering that almost everything went up during that period. Would you suggest just sticking with the major benchmark?

Give me your ideas for world classes to go alongside World Champion and World Disaster; I'll go first, World Eater, concept below

World Eater (5): You have [World Champion]s, you eve[n] have [World Disaster]s, but you are the f[i]rst [World Eater] to walk the nine realms of Ygg[d]rasil. By combining wit[h] the W**[o]rld Item [Any World Item], you have now consumed an entire world. You have become the disciple of [$*r^*%j], and he teaches you to sense the worlds of Y[g]gdrasil, givin[g]** you the passive skill [Realm Sense], allowing you to sense the p**[r]**esence of other World Items close to you and any players or guilds that may have them. For being the first to discover this class, you also have the benefit of not losing it, even if you are killed and dropped down to level 5. This also means you can’t drop [Any World Item]; other world items and items can still be dropped when you die, though.

Through maxing out [World Eater], you have unlocked the Super Tier Spell, [Void of Creation]. This is an AOE spell with a wide range; the danger comes from the fact that it changes its affinity to match that which the opponents most weak to, doing the maximum damage possible. Not even world items will protect against this because of [World Eater]'s innate connection to [Any World Item]. Be warned, you will run out of Mana after using this spell, no matter how much you had before, as well as a whole levels worth of Exp every time you use it, therefore dropping you down to level 99.

Cool, the potential is there. Weird cryptic stuff as well? Only...

The premise entirely defies the nature of the "World" class. Things with the world class fundamentally have to cancel each other out for even though Yggdrasil was extremely unbalanced, there were limits.

If something existed to defy the innate nature of world class items, World enemies would be meaningless and players with world items, depending on the abilities of the WCI, would be able to one shot world bosses. You cannot have something apply universally EXCEPT for one niche class.

Hiding it behind being something extremely exclusive only makes it that much more unfair and unrealistic. Again, we know Yggdrasil was unbalanced to a decent extent but we also know not all wishes with wish granting WCI's were granted thereby matter-of-fact-ing that there are limits to the nature of "World" classification.

SimplySimpl3 · 17 days ago

It's neat idea, really, but I think it should be a thing where when you get it, you are able to locate the WCI's but are essentially forced to consume the WCI's. It relates more to where the source of power comes from for the class. Idk what benefits/debuffs one would gain by consuming WCI's but I think it should ultimately end in the player becoming a World Enemy.

AdventurousStick7107 · OP · 17 days ago

consuming world items is what can happen when the class transfers to the new world

the letters have a meaning too, it's not too complicated, if you want to try and put them together to find the patron behind the class, or I can tell you if you want

lets just say it explains why it breaks the mold with other world classes, but also brings more questions, questions I am more than willing to answer

Rogue/Assassin: World Slayer

Ultimate ability is a blink-type attack where the user blips in and out of existence to approach and disengage, while attacking in between. The shorter and more fragile the weapon, the more damage. The teleportation is relatively short ranged but cannot be stopped or punished directly. The attack also bypasses any immunity and cannot be avoided through any means other than moving out of the way, only interrupted.

The only ride that is definitely closed is Atlantica Supersplash because the Ferris Wheel is built over the basin. Everything else, including the remaining water rides, is open iirc, allowing the temperatures of course. Required temperatures for rollercoasters to be open is like +3°C and they get considerably faster during the day as they warm up.
