DAK_21PzDivision

Here all the turns before the Reds enter at war... Axis continues its advance in Africa. British expect to stop them in the followings turns. Russia enters at war... let's see how they works...

This is the film until turn 45. Yes british are really short of MPP, but if you combat them... will you be able to combat hard agains Russia? Remember that Hitler didn't want two fronts... On the other hand, USA can use all its MPP... but, of course, you are leading the game and i have to to something to prevent my defeat!

Yes, of course, im very happy to play with other players in an open tourney. I like when i can read you talking about the game, it's interesting. Also a bit sad because i couldn't meet you in the tourney!!! Thanks to you because you started the tourney!

So, did you already made a sucesfull Sealion againts K-Man? I didn't know anything at all. Well, game is very interesting. Allies are furious! More film report here:

AAR nº 4: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs Baron(allies) We are in April 1943 (more or less), 103 turns have been complete. Just a short report to announce that German army has launched the "Can Opener Operation" around Stalingrad city. Two Paratroops has started the operation landing and attacking a red HQ behing Don River, which has been destroyed with the help of Luftwaffe. Then a large assault from corps, armies and tanks over the first line of Russian's defences around Stalingrand area. We could destroy only a corps and one armie. We can see other 3 armoured armies and 4 rockets (level 3 at least)... and some other units. German army have in the first line 3 armoured tanks, 5 - 6 armies and 4 - 5 corps plus 6 airplanes with 4 HQ supporting them. Hitler wants to finish the war in the east before allies can launch its D-Day!!! Meanwhile, other german armies with the help of Italians and Spaniards forces arer trenched from Portugal to Germany!!! Good Luck brave soldier fighting againt the bolchevism!!! Update to 105 turn: First losses in german armies due of red rocket and the CA from adjacent red units. However in the following turn, our forces clear the west side of Don River and took Maikop oil camps! More (a lot of them) red forces are coming from the east to Stalingrad area... BTW mud in June (at the east of Stalingrad) since March (before it was winter), SC2 weather is mad!!! The question is: where is Patton and Eisenhower?

AAR nº 3: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs Baron(allies) We are in November 1942 (more or less), 94 turns have been complete. After a full and a half year figthing in Russia Hitler is excited with the incredible results. More than 1/2 of the red cities have been conquered with just a few losses... In front of the german armies is the Volga River... We can see a lot of red units around Stalingrad... The next year the fight there will be bloody and cruel... Axis comander have decided to stop during the winter in order to accumulate supplies and reinforcements. As Baron said, he counter-attack in Moscow area with the siberan troops. I took some losses and i had to wait for some months before try to take Moscow. After a nice turn at which i took Vichy and Tunis we meet in Moscow (he was also advancing over my line) and thank to the moral bonus and my Luftwaffe we could destroy a lot of units and, finally, conquer Moscow. West allies have bomber France both with a couple of bombers and the allied fleet. During the last turn, they leave France and started to bombing Portugal, even the atlantic city of Argelia... We decided to try a small operation with the italian marine. As i suppose the US naval forces were there... but, im surprised because when my naval units meet his hidden units i didn't took any losses and, futhermore, i could attack them, so a few units have been sunk. The situation is very positive for axis. But we know that the russians will present a nice surprise for my front line in a few turns... and the west allies have been building for a hole year... We expect a huge landing during the next spring or summer... The question is, where? France is the main preocupation, but perhaps Germany, Spain, the peaceful Scandinavia? Anyway, the next year, 1943, will decide the winner of this game!

AAR nº 2: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs Baron(allies) We are in September 1941 (more or less), 59 turns have been complete. Axis commander decided to base all his main strategy about an early attack over Russia. According to that, after the fall of the France and the next conquering of the west cities in the hands of allies. The main objectives was to spend a lot of MPP in diplomacy over Spain, which joined axis at the end of 1940. Slowly, two complete groups of armies formed at the Russian border and at the end of spring axis were "ready" to attack Russia (Russia was about 45% of readinnes). Barbarrosa started in mid-june and now (last move in August-31) we have conquered five cities (Riga, Odessa, Kiev, Leningrad... and... i can't remember the other one... ) Moscow is surrounded but siberian troops came in this turn... Let's see what can i do before winter come... During all this time, red army didn't offer any resistence out of cities, just going back all the time. Royal Navy started three turns ago to bombing west coast, including the Spanish cruiser at Bilbao. Let's see what happen!

AAR nº 1: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs Baron(allies) We are in September 1945 (more or less), 29 turns have been complete. For the time being, the game is being less risky than my game againts Taojah. France surrendered at the ends of July with no casualties for German army. Allied armies are hidden anywhere, i don't know where... No action in Afrika, no action anywhere except in France but only with frenchies and some air combats with british air carrier and RAF. At this time some german forces tries to take the las city owned by british (Chebourg), protected by RN and RAF.

Game started, im axis, as lately! Good luck Baron!

AAR nº 8: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs TaoJah (allies) We are in September 1946 (more or less), 207 turns have been complete. A complete year since the last report and lot of things has happened again. Axis major victory! After the "big break" in the west during the battle for Paris, Axis commander took notice that the west allies were defenceless, so we started to plan a late Sealion with massive supporting from Luftwaffe and marine (italian + german). After some rounds hitting allied airplanes in England we decide to launch the assault in early spring 46. Then, as the british only had some light corps the powerful german armies landed in britain could took the island (with the big help of Luftwaffe). British surrendered as Egipt was under italian control. Allied fortified Irelan and took there a lot of planes and some ground forces. That forces were distubing german units in Britain but italian and german marine prevented any CA over Britain. After that unexpected succesfull hit, the game was almost wan for German. Luftwaffe were repared and operated to the east, with all the armoured units. Week after week, red cities were fallen, Moscow, Arcangel, Gorky, Kurst, Rostov and Stalingrad. Red army only could delay german advance and reconquering Iraq to italians. BTW, in the final stages of the war, Turkey joined Axis. I know that i had been very lucky, but i also know that i have fight hard. Im very happy of this victory. But if Tahoaj were the winner it won't be strange. He played very very well, but the battle for Paris was a big problem for west allied. Here the final map:

AAR nº 7: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs TaoJah (allies) We are in September 1945 (more or less), 168 turns have been complete. A complete year since the last report and lot of things has happened. A German winter offensive took a great succes for german forces which took Leningrad! Then they prepared to resist the CA from reds (never happend that CA) with 3 armoured tanks (level 4) and some other units. On the other hand, in late spring, after a great air offensive, two complete west allied armies landed next to LC and took Brussels, and in the following three turns moved to the west and liberate Paris (in the following 3-4 turns they also liberate Brest), destroying all the german units in the area (5-6) but not the HQ which moved to Marseille with other units trying to stop the advance over the south and west of France. This was the worst time for Germany, German Commander was under big pressure... Stalin was trying to liberate Romania and his forces even liberate the oil camp despite the hard bombing of the luftwaffe over its units (2 - 3 units destroyed each turn with the air units)... "What could i do...?" I was at my job thinking and thinking in the game... Finally we tried a desperate strategy... we took my lovely planes and Manstein HQ to the west... we looked that 3 allied planes and two bombers was in France... if i didn't stop that i will loose the game in a short period of time. I also see that i could hit some of this air units with corps from the France city at the southwest (i dont' remember its name...) and landing paratroops jumping from my lines... I also notice that my planes was better not in technology (mines level 3, his level 4) but yes in experience and HQ, so i prepared the CA to be started at the begginins of summer... And we were luck!!! with the help of corps and paratroops we could destroy 2 of 3 airplanes and severe damage others in Britain! At the same time, some german forces started to move over Brussels from Essen and Cologne, meanwhile the italian marine destroy brest port and my bomber did the same with brussels port, isolating allied forces. I was very excited because it seemed that the west allied air units couldn't damage my planes hard enough, so i continued with the pressure, both in the air and land... On the other hand, (a surprised for me), the russian army stropped its offensive in all the east front (it's also true that it was really weak at the south due my previous bombing...) so i was happy to not having to spend mpp in that area... Then, week after week, the German and Luftwaffe were destroying a lot of allied units (which include some new air units and 3 HQ) and this turn we "liberate" paris (brussels some time ago)!!! A complete succes that i never could think some time ago!!! It is also a nice new that italian forces has conquered Egypt and liberate Syria. It's very important that german subs and the italian marine is isolating UK from the rest of the world from one year ago. In the last e-mail that Taohaj sent me, he explained me that he was trying to hold Paris at all cost because a rule that said this: " ". I don't remember that rule :eek: so if he had win i would be very surprise but i was very lucky because the rule was off in the standard game!!! What a great game!

AAR nº 6: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs TaoJah (allies) We are in July 1944 (more or less), 139 turns have been complete. After more than two years of bloody combats, the German Army controls all the scandinavian hexes!!! During the last weeks a strong amoured offensive with the support of Luftwaffe has become in the complete destruction of the ground allied units!! A great success, Hitler is euforic!!! Meanwhile the German commanders tries to hold the line in Romania and Hungary, were thousand of russian are assaulting the axis allied lines. Fortunately for us, the Luftwaffe is giving the right support and, at this time, only one mountain hex has been conquered by the red commander. On the other hand, our spies has detected more than 6 airplanes in england and 2 - 3 more bombers... must OKW be prepared for a new D-Day?? And the last news, the italian fleet almost controls the atlantic ocean with the support of some subs, which are hitting the british supply lines... Very nice game! All the movements must be planned carefully!!! Go, go, go!!!

You know... Goebels is my minister of (dis)information!!! This is psicologist war!!!

AAR nº 5: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs TaoJah (allies) We are in April 1943 (more or less), 103 turns have been complete. "We need tons of blood!!!" - That's the first words that the President of the Red Cross told in his conference this afternoon in Geneva. Dozens of battles have been appearing since the last report. The overall situation is something like a stalemate: The red army tried to cut the two german groups of armies in Poland running across a corridor at the north of Hungary. After some weeks of battles dozens of units were anihilate, including two HQ. Besides, the brave Filand army resist at Helsinky the attack of two powerfull armies. More minor battles has been produce in Scandinavia, where allies hold the middle north meanwhile the axis control the south. In a quick movement, some west allies units landed at the north of Germany and took Hamburg. Later US forces landed around Brussels conquering the city. However, in the last turn, new groups of german armies are encirclement this units and OKW expect to suppress them during the next weeks... Despiter the critical situation, the OKW trusth in the Victory! Go, go, go!!!

AAR nº 4: DAK_21PzDivision (axis) Vs TaoJah (allies) We are in October 1941 (more or less), 64 turns have been complete. Great and exciting turns have been seen here. As the RN prevents my assault over the british norway i decided to try to get Sweeden. After an unssucesfull initial asault i could see ( :eek: ) that Taohaj had been accumulated tons of troops in Norway because he had the same idea: conquering Sweden!!! :confused: At the same time, some allied troops landed in Casablanca and Gibraltar corps (under fire from spanish units) were replaced by a new fresh corp. Despite of all this confusion and the fire of RN, Luftwaffe gave some support to axis forces in Sweden and also with the help of Kriegsmarine could sink 3 - 4 fleets and a air carrier which was annoying me from the sea! At the same time, the lack of supply for allied units in Sweden allow me to take Stockholm the previous turn that Russia entered at war (Russia declared war on Axis). At present, a full Axis army group is trying to advance over Oslo. Gibraltar is under big pressure from spanish units and italian navy and some italian forces try to increase the pressure over Casablanca (three british units there). In my first turn in Russia we captured the defenceless Riga (anybody there) and we are taking positions for the followings advances.
