Kuniworth Posted January 16, 2003 Author Share Posted January 16, 2003 We agreed to continue by PBEM. Alright its now april 28th. Last turn PK concetrated his attacks against my panzergroups in France and sustained heavy damage. Western Front; France defensive line is breach and the remnants of the french forces retreats towards Paris. Allied 4th and 5th french armies abandon the Maginot line and rushes to take position outside the Capitol. They are attacked by Reichenaus 10th and Kluge's 4th army virtually wipin them out. German scouts can see the Eiffel-tower!!!! Gamelin are relieved and replaced by DeGaulle. The Maginotline is destroyed by the XIX panxercorps. 3rd french army still holds the northern part of it totallt cut off. 14th german army launch an attack scratching the defenders. JUTLAND; German airforce combines with taskforce Scharnhorst wipin out Rodney and the mighty Hood. Royal Navys pride lays on the bottom of the sea outside Kiel. However the french fleet includin BB Richelieu and crusiers Dunquerkue and Strasbourg moves from belgian coast to join the action. SWEDEN; Rundstedt try to break the deadlock by attackin Stockholm. Some success, 50 000 swedish soldiers die, 30 000 still defend the capitol. German II Corps retreats southward from the landing in Gävle north of Stockholm to connect with Rundstedts troops. The men are completly exhausted. The fight in Sweden is still even. New commander in chief for the Wehrmacht; Brauchitch replaced by Walter Model as chief of staff. Fightin spirit is said to be needed if the war is to be won. Hitler is pleased. Losses so far Allies; 14 landunits, 1 airfleet, 5 BB and CA Axis; 1 landunit, 1 uboat [ January 15, 2003, 08:19 PM: Message edited by: Kuniworth ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
