jon_j_rambo Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 Okay folks, I haven't played Zapp in awhile. Last time it was a "W". Bid didn't take long, it usually settles around 300. Standard rules, ZL, etc. 1st turn: I hit Poland hard. My ground attacks don't wipe out the "popular Army" to kill, so I send an Air attack to finish the job. German forces move in against Warsaw, reduce it to strength 4. In the West, obvioulsy only 2-fighters are there for next turn, that is okay [planned].

jon_j_rambo Posted November 9, 2003 Author Share Posted November 9, 2003 01/07/1940 [T-5]: 1) Ardennes recieved a triple ground attack from the North, First Blood NW, & the East Ardennes. The French Army is wiped clean out of the face of the Earth. German Army takes the Western Ardennes & attacks South (the Mine) along with 3-Luftwaffen Fighters. French Army survives...strength-1. 2) Irish get the month resupply. 3) Denmark gets their monthly attack too. I'm using the Air against the French instead. der General von baron Rambo [ November 08, 2003, 05:16 PM: Message edited by: jon_j_rambo ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_j_rambo Posted November 9, 2003 Author Share Posted November 9, 2003 03/30/1940: 1) Denmark, same thing. They'll break eventually, while my ships gain experience. 2) Another French Army killed, but I did it with all ground forces & put a panzer in "The Elbow". I want to refresh my air, & had to get a kill. France is opened up, the M-Line has been crossed & the Mine captured.
