Terif Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 The free french corps is no more...next turn Alexandria should fall - 3 german AFs in range and an italian army transport standing outside the city. UK demonstrates Jets 2 vs Germany 0 - but without supply and HQ they still don´t do much harm to the german AFs . In the north: Bergen under attack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terif Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 February 8, 1942: Yep in deed, this game is really a straw that breaks the camel's back . 4th turn Barbarossa - Russia developes Jets 3...and in combat: german str 7 AF gets killed by an intercepting russian AF - russian units seem to know only max damages .
