Axis takes Brest. No sign of Churgargamelchill as all of his units appears to have dissappeared or withdrawn deep within the UK.
Italian transports show up next to Egypt. Navy not far behind.

another quiet turn. I will have almost a year to prepare for the Russian war.
I think what seamonkey is alluding to is that your defense of France fell too early. Gives the Axis so much more time to prepare to do the C-cookie.
But only time will see .. .. ..

quiet period...........

Yes all quiet, early July 1940 and all nations converted in Phase one of Papa Smurfs Plan.

WILD SMURF LEAD AXIS
SWEDEN AND VICHY PAINTED SMURF BLUE
Axis finish off Sweden. It took three turns to convert Sweden. In stockholm thousands greeted the Axis smurfs and a young man by the name of Kuni was leading the thousands in singing "Let's smurf" as they danced and partied late into the night.
It is June 23, 1940.
Russian War readiness is at 58%
Countries converted to the Smurf Reich so far are Poland, Low Countries, France, Norway, Sweden and Vichy. Italy has come into the smurf Reich on her on and we are soon expecting other nations in the Balkens to join us.

I never got that last move.

Just redeploying troops this turn, nothing up.
-
working today so no time for the smurf fluff
just the facts
Tired of those british air and carriers hitting my land units in France. Luftwaffe strike back, destroy one carrier.
Sweden now also invaded. Will fall in two more turns.

NORWAY CONVERTED AND OLSO PAINTED SMURF BLUE
The enemy of peace and harmony of all Smurf loving peoples destroys a German army in Brest. Ouch!
But the Axis stays on their plan and liberate Norway. Olso is converted and another European capitol is painted Smurf Blue.
All else appears quiet....
-
If you look on the map date above, I beleive it is around early Jan 1940

Welcome, check out the sc pbem league. A good place to start after you practice on the AI.

Yes, the axis had to lose an armor unit that was on the coast. The price I had to pay to take Paris early.
This move is just reordering orders for the troops.
Where will Papa Smurf send his Axis units is the question ... .. .

PARIS FALLS TO THE SMURFS
NEWS BULLETIN: The British cannot hold Paris and France Falls to the Smurfs. Smurfs come into Paris and paint the entire city blue. Here we have the best French chefs preparing a meal for the wonderful smurfs as they come into the city as hero's. The French have laid down their arms and painted the city blue in honor of the smurfs who are bringing peace and harmony accross Europe. Papa Smurf said in a speach, yesterday Warsaw and Copenhagen, today Paris, tomorrow.... (then the microphone went dead)
This turn didnt start off good. The French and British counter attack and destroy a weakened corp and an army that was at 8 strength. I made the mistake of putting that army out on the elbow hex. Mistake and it cost me. But the allies made a serious mistake too that cost them much more dearly. The allies forgot to reinforce the British corps that was defending Paris. My Corps that was destroyed pinged Paris last move to bring Italy into the war. It also had the bonus effect of keeping the entrenchment down to 0 and British corps in Paris strength at 8. So this move the allies did not replace the corps or reinforce it. The Axis then attacked it with an army, then tried to swing an armor unit around it to attack from the rear but was surprised to find the Canadian army blocking them. But the axis had three more good Luftwaffe with HQ support to attack Paris and destroyed the army. Then a corps moves in to take the city and Paris falls. I learned very early on that France is not about France but it is all about Paris. Paris is painted smurf blue.
Hopefully this link will work and show a pic of the map area of Paris

Too much work to do, only the facts this time.
The allies didnt pull back nor attack the German corps that broke through. So we have expanded the hole in the line by attacking the French army in the French Arden from several sides and destroyed it. Then armor rushed through and the entire German line advanced killing off a British corps in the process.
Denmark is also pinged and attacked with luftwaffe and copenhagen becomes blue for the smurfs!
One corp that broke through has advanced to Paris and pinged it to bring Italy into the war. Italy warreadiness was already at 94 and that should bring Italy into the Pro-Smurf alliance of nations. Behind that corps is an entire line of Germans that have broken through while the French armies sit in the maginot line.
The only bad news is our subs are down to 1 and 2 strength and will be history next turn.
I dont think the master-reich killer was ready for the low countries to fall so quickly and for the attack on France to begin so quickly. The AI doesnt do that I think. I also saw Monty in London so there must have been MPP points saved up to buy Monty as the great hope of the UK.
Interesting to see what the allies do now.

PRO SMURFITE SENTIMENT IS CATCHING ON AROUND THE WORLD, HERE IS A COUPLE IN NEW JERSEY SHOWING THEIR SOLIDARITY TOWARD THE SMURFS
The Axis lead by key smurfs have the allies so befuddled that they are now making claims to the Geneva convention of Smurfs in the air? Its all part of Papa smurfs strategy of confusing the enemy.
No, we only HAD three luftwaffe.....
The Germans attack the first blood hex with two armies and that powerful luftwaffe. The French army which was pinged last time by a corps so it couldnt build up any entrenchment is destroyed. Rushing through the hole in the allies line is two corps. As Gormer Pile would say, "surprise, surprise!" as the first corp unexpectedly hits a French HQ just behind the ally line. Papa Smurf is stunned, this wasnt written in the "MasterReichKiller's" plan. HMMMM.... The two corps most likely will suffer a counter attack but we wanted to cause the allies real problems early on before a defense can get set up. With the Poles surrendering on turn two the rest of the German armies are brought over from the eastern front to continue the attack.
Denmark is just pinged with our navy again.
Our Subs continue to put the smurf moves on and hide from the allies.

HARDCORE SMURFS ATTACK AND CONQUER!
The Germans, lead by a few hardcorp smurfs divide their forces and conquer two nations so all Europe might come under the peaceful umbrella of the leadership of Papa Smurf. (Who by the way before the war was rumored to be living in seclusion in the USA state of New Jersey and going by the nickanme of JJ and pretending to be a writer).
On the Polish front Warsaw is attacked and liberated. One armor and several armies are enough to take Warsaw. The Poles no longer want to fight and all of Warsaw is painted "smurf-blue" and the Poles surrender on turn two.
On the western front the cry of the Dutch and Belgiums to "Let's Smurf" has been answered. An attack by an army, then three luftwaffe and an armor unit finishs off the defenders and the low countries are liberated. The British try to help and intercept the luftwaffe twice, including the air unit that the British bring up from Malta. But no French air is seen.
The German navy pings away still at "wonderful, wonderful, copenhagen..." and the subs continue to hide away.
Will the Masterreich Killer Defense work now? We will see. The Germans have suddenly become confident with Papa Smurf leading the way!

I agree with Kurt, if Italy's Navy is intact and the allies leave a land unit in Malta. I usually like to put a chit in for Italy to try to pump up its Navy and I start pinging away on Malta to get experience. If you can get a few bars of experience and a tech increase for the Italian Navy those ships can do some real damage.

Turn 1
Germany declares itself the defender of all of pure Europe. Hitler is shot and replaced with a new progressive government aided and lead by the wonder Smurfs. Now the Reich must expand itself to defend Europe from the Capitolistic ideas that deny Europeans of their rights and Communism which is only the new dictatorship of Comrade Stalin. Instead Germany with her allies in Europe intend to set up the SMURF-REICH where our new friends the Smurfs will lead us into a time of peace and harmony.
But first we must liberate all of Europe. As the new German armies march into Poland the troops are heard marching and chanting in unison,
"We are marching for the smurfs
Let's smurf,
We are dying for the smurfs
Let's smurf
We are uniting the world for the smurfs
Let's smurf"
As they chanted and marched the Germans split their forces. They sent some to the dutch boarder as they heard the cry of the dutch and Belgium people who have changed their cry from give us freedom to give us smurfdom. Thousands of Dutch and Beligum's lined the boarder with Germany and were seen crying out - "We want to smurf too". Some young Beligum man by the name of Kurt was seen leading the thousands of people in chanting, "we want the smurfs too, let us smurf too:. They are crying out for smurfdom and the German nation has heard your cry.
We used the other half of our forces to liberate the Poles and bring Poland into the Greater Smurfdom Empire of the 'SMURFREICH". The Poles greated us with chants of, "Poland is for the smurfs." But some of those that are mislead and hate the smurfs continue to fight and they make a stand in Warsaw. But Warsaw shall become a place of safty, peace and harmony for all smurf loving people. Even if we have to burn the place down and start over.
Our sub's attacked the English shipping in the North Atlantic. Smurfs were seen guiding our U-boats and playing with their rubber duckies at the same time.
We have also begun to liberate Denmark and bring the Danish dairy industry into the SMURFREICH by attacking Copenhagen with our Navy. Danish milk will become part of the greater smurfreich.
With the Smurfs on our side we shall prevail
LETS SMURF!!!!!

Aesop - Allies as the "MasterReichKiler"
Curry - Axis as the "Defender of the Reich"
Hopefully we are starting out a game where Aesop can test his "MasterReichKiller" strategy out against a human and not just the AI. I'm an intermediate player so I'm a good person to test it out on. I will be Axis and Aseop will be the "MasterReichKiller" as the Allies. The bid is 150 in the 1/5/20 bidding style. I usually dont give that many points away because I'm not that good so I will be pressed. Hope it will be fun.
Here is Aesop's "MasterReichKiller" strategy, lets see if he uses it here.
""""""""""""I have already boasted about this in the past but it is been awhile since I played SC again.
I admit that I had to use gamey tactics to win. Transfering a lot of French forces to UK territory, disbanding their naval units to get their MMPs, siting tight with the UK and doing max research on fighter tech. Keep your fighters out of reach of the luftwaffe. Also put some money into industrial tech. Don't go buying yet until later.
When Germany invades the USSR, haul your forces to form a defensive front along Moscow, to Stalingrad and Rostov. Put your research pts into your anti-tank techs. Hide your aircraft as they are no match for the luftwaffe ( you might even want to disband them to get your generals ).
Last line of defense would be the ural mountains as they offer excellent terrain for defense. Your center will usuall by broken and concede into halving your army defending behind the urals and the stalingrad rostov river line. Don'twaste time going after Finland. It's not worth the MMPs and time.
Put your armor in reserve for counterattacks against weakened enemy units.
When the US comes on board, put every research money into anti-tank as you need strong infantry to make d-day successful. Don't ship your units to UK as you have the double expense of transporting them again for the invasion.
When your fighters as the UK reach three level and your US infantry tech reaches three, get ready to invade. By now, the UK would have about 5000 MMPs. Just pour it all on two generals and 10 air fleets and you are ready to rock.
The USSR at this point is defending either at the urals or barely holding on to moscow-rostov defensive line.
At this point your sea invasion will cut through France and Germany like a butter knife."""""""(end quote)

Hopefully we will test out the
"MasterReichKiller" theory and see if it works against a human

THE WINNER IS ANGELDUST ANGELDUST DEFEATS YAGGMOTH
WINS THE TOURNEY
- first congratulations to Yaggmoth for getting to the finals. He played very well in defeating two of the better players in the SC PBEM league to get there. (including me
)SPECIAL CONGRATULATIONS TO ANGELDUST for his win. He had to defeat some fine players to take the title. He also showed a lot of class in his games and showed himself to be a fine player. The PL should be proud one of their own won the title.
Statement from the winner
""" Hello Curry! We just finished the rematch of the BoF finals. Angel Dust (Axis) captured
Paris on Aug 11th '40, approx. 3 months earlier as needed. My respect to Yaggmoth, who controlled Berlin for two months with one
stubbornly surviving Polish army. I also want to thank my respected opponents "Cpl. steiner", "Panzer39" and "Yaggmoth", all of them demanded my full attention and made me so even
stronger, thanks to you guys.
Congrats to you, Curry, for your amazing idea of this tournament and all the
effort you put in. I liked the concept of this mirror mode very much, best
way to compare two players, no one needs no f___ing bid!
Angel Dust""""
THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED.
I'm so glad this tournament finished out and didnt like die off like some tourneys we see on the board. That is because of the faithfulness of everyone who played in the tourney. Thanks to all of you. Good Show as the Brits would say!

"MasterReichKiller" AAR Aesop verses Curry
in Strategic Command 1
Posted
Alexandria Falls, suez will be next. Alexandria was left undefended and Suez only has a French corps. No other defenders in sight.
Italian Navy goes back to pounding Malta. Slowly but surely building up experience for her undamaged Navy.
The Allies have become very quiet and the Masterreich plan seems to be in effect. We will see.
