to cut the story short - he expended everything into the lc gambit and simultaneously attacked and invaded Italy. He got several corps eaten up to pieces after getting isolated in Italy and he was reduced to having his HQs hold lines. We lost our two panzer corps but he lost everything - armies, corps, air fleets, two carriers, most of his other navy. We lost three Italian naval units, and an Italian army. He was extremely agressive and it backfired. France was still going to fall in Sept or Oct of 40 with reduced war entry for US. He resigned instead of continuing game. Had too much problems with his TCP connection as it was way slow. Finis.

Oh heck - will give an update when game is finished

lines are stable full fleet pounded on lc coast - suffered damage

destroyed french army and went into lc

he dowed lc and took amsterdam

denmark falls - french forces making a feint across the maginot

declared on denamark pinged with cruisers and air-attacked with panzer down to three should fall next turn

cornered my subs one left

he finally caught up with subs escaped with 8-3 remaining subs - damaged some french boats - UK ship went into the scandinavian sea choke point and was duly dispatched

mistaken first post I am the axis- took care of the remaining polish forces-Poland surrenders pinged atlantic for 30

As axis took care of warsaw by move one and detroyed two Polish armies, and the warsaw corps is kaput raided atlantic for 28

Mr. Aesop takes the allied side with the usual 1:5:20 bid

yep here wanta TCP/IP

Anyone who wants to host a TCP/IP. Usual 1:5:20 UK US USSR for the next two hours.

Kuni, I did not post that. Where the heck did I post that?

Hey admin, Can we close this thread already?

Hey Kuni, Can you host?

Ok, hooking up with Rambo.

Hey Rambo, Are you playing Axis and what is your IP address. 1:5:20 bid as usual for UK, US and USSR.

Hey Kuni, I am back at home and have the whole afternoon free. Wanna get ass whupping?

Curry had resigned. I thought he still had the decisive advantage as he can easily shift his air power fully to the west and finish my air off and I would be stuck without a good answer. After that shift, he could easily hold and contain my breakthrough. He definitely played wery well and I got lucky with my techs. You were still winning on this Curry as it would have taken me a while to try to recover in the east and you could have rolled over me easily in the west if you wished it. Since, you had concerns Curry, I am calling it a draw. You were definitely winning, no question about that. It's not a matter of winning or losing for me, its trying new stuff and pushing the envelope for the game.

Kuniworth, I'll take you on anytime, anywhere but I am on a router that doesn't allow me to host. If you'll host that would be great! I'll take you on as soon as I ge t killed by Curry or vice-versa. Gosh, I never thought I would be so popular or viled so much for going against your playbook! I do really make a good villian. I was insistent that my strategy would work very well against the AI on hard level plus two experience for the AI. It would have some merits against an experienced player but not all the time especially if your human opponent knows what you are doing. This game still has bugs and you do know how to take full advantage of it (isn't that gamey?!). My hats off to you on that maestro. Hopefully, with SC2, it would be more of a display of military prowess than mere gamey gimmicks. Our current game should finish by next week as we have reached the critical point. So if you want, we can start one on Saturday morning 9:00 PST.

We are really hurting in the east and we are just trying to hold on. He is not a doing a full front advance though. In the west, we have broke through the northern line but it has cost us dearly. A german amphib is seen at the northern part of UK.

Isn't this looking grim for Papa Smurf?

Lines are getting more stable in the east and the west. We linked up again in the east and USSR is not cut in half anymore. He pulled back some of his airfleets in the east to meet the western threat. We liberated Amsterdam. More mpps for us! We now have two French Corps in the west, freeing valuable USA units from garrison duties. We can easily deal with the fly that landed on the USA's backyard as he has no support and is surrounded right away. Our forces around Hamburg grow a little bit more and we bring in close air support.
