The biggest problems , as I assume, were

1. No reserves for a longer campaign i.e. men, tanks etc

2. No clear cut objective ( changing all the while...today Leningrad, tomorrow caucasus, the next Moscow)

3. the race politics

4. the supply system

Unfortunately not getting very adventurous but I suppose you´d need a decent number of men in reserves and definitely alot more tanks and tank engines to replace the lost/worn ones.

Getting one objective is better than not getting any so I´d put my money on getting Leningrad first, then Moscow. By getting Leningrad the army would get a huge moral boost and Stalin would lose the birth place of his empire. Huge propaganda victory for Göbbels and his co.Also this would free the Finns from the Karelia section to attack in full force with the Germans to Murmansk which would free ( if successful )the German forces in Lapland to move in an attackt owards Moscow from the North....

Of course getting the Russian people against Stalin would be a job for the mastermind Göbbels. We can always afterwards do the dirty laundry....

Just some thoughts...
