I would love to know the answer to that one myself since I don't have a clue either. The video didn't give me any insights into what he meant by the "Sir Robins defence."

It's the "Runaway Runaway and live to fight another day" method.

Sorry guys, should've explained the term.

OG is correct. It's a strategy where the Red Army immediately pulls back on a large scale to deny the Germans any large encirclements in '41. And yes, the name derives from the "brave Sir Robin" character from Monty Python. It can be very effective, if done right.

Thanks for the explanations.

I think I better watch "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" once more, apparently I haven't done that often enough yet. duh

It's okay, Para ... Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale ... biggrin

I'm currently playing Gary Grigsby's "Bombing the Reich" full 1943 campaign as Reichsdödel Meier ( WinkNGrin ). It's now early April 1944 and my new Ta 152 Cs are giving the USAAF really ugly headaches. Just waiting for the rest of my factories to finish retooling so I can dish them out a hundred a day. ready
