zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 Russia is fighting in the south, 2 Axis units cut-off and unsupplied. In the west it is Cat & Mouse play. Allies withdraw and attack every 2-3 turns. Last turn one US air and one Luftwaffe were destroyed, first air units destroyed since France 1940.

Terif Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 March 22, 1942: Russian offensive near Kiev, 1 german tank destroyed. Axis take revenge and kill 3 tanks + 1 corps in return - an army survives at str 2, Riga conquered. Russia built 9 tanks, 3 armies and 7 corps near the front so far. Russia already researched anti-tank lv 1. In the West german air goes into the offensive and kills a US AF that attacked the last 2 turns and were therefore weakended with direct strikes - one german AF missing in action. Portugal surrenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 While Riga is lost, Zhukov immediately understands the danger and do the unexpected. FULL SCALE ATTACK by Russia in the south. Axis HQ and 8 Axis units between Odessa and Kiev are cut-off from supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 Axis attacked with air across the English channel, one luftwaffe killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 April 19, 1942: Since a HQ was in the encircled area, the german units were still in supply and HQ supported. One german army lost during the russian attack. As retaliation 2 russian tanks and an army destroyed. Another army survived at 2, a corps at str 1. Russian mine near Sevastopol occupied by a cut of corps and buried down. In the west: German air attacks a UK AF in southern England, but during interception they already take 8 points damage vs a lv 3 US AF, so it gets killed in the final battle - nevertheless since Germany has reached Anti-air lv 2 it was surely expensive for the enemy air too. German airfleet replaced by a new one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 The counter did not work out as expected. One German tank that i mistakely thought was weak was at strength 8. Also, i failed killing a strength 3 Romanian army with my HQ'd fresh tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 May 17, 1942: German corps killed near Kiev. Germans retaliate and kill again 2 tanks, 1 army and a corps. Second russian mine buried down... Russia shows anti-tank lv 2. West: US transport outside Hamburg, coasts are protected. Heavy airbattles around London, German air in the offensive, this time no AF lost - 1 UK air is not intercepting any more...probably UK finally is running out of mpps . Germany researches Jets lv 2 at the end of turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 June 1942: Axis reach L2 Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 June 14, 1942: The brave bulgarian corps that buried down the russian mines moves deeper into russian territory and attacks Konev HQ . Russians continue to attack aggressively and kill a german army. As retaliation 2 russian armies destroyed. No tanks to kill any more - no survivors . Only 2 last russian tanks spotted in and around Minsk. Russian cruiser killed instead. West: German air repositions into attack positions for England. The battle of Britain has begun - report shows lots of italian transports swarming the sea . German navy sails west to help protecting the axis invasion force.

zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 June 1942: Allies go All-In flooding the French coast. Now it will be decided if Axis air can withstand. In case they do, they will win. My chances are low, but higher than sitting on my ass being outnumbered in MPP's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 June 28, 1942: First turn without losses for Germany in Russia - an army survives at str 1. 1 russian army, 1 corps destroyed, several others heavily damaged - Russia is now running out of armies too. North: German tanks reach Leningrad. West: Many US transports at the french and LC coast. An army transport survives 2 airstrikes. Fresh air built, now 5 german AFs in the battle of France/Britain. UK built a third AF. USA built also an AF - research chits must have been sold now. At the moment: Axis is 2:1 superior in units and earns 875mpp/turn vs ~750 allied mpps.

zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 Allies surrender. I had nothing left. Units and MPP's were in Axis favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 July 12, 1942: Finland joins Axis. One italian army lost - a italian task force (3 armies, 2 corps, 1 HQ) is fighting side by side with their german brothers . As retaliation 2 russian armies destroyed - only 1 russian army in Kiev left... West: US transports move to southern France and Spain. Without aircover an army transport gets sunk by german air. Italian transports approaching USA... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zappsweden Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 Comments: The keys in the game is 1) Paris 2) Minors and Gibraltar 3) Tech Number three worked fine, I got the techs when I wanted them. However, 1) and 2) did not go so well. When Paris fell in July 1940 and Romania+Hungary were Axis in March 1940 (enabling early Spain) I knew I was in for trouble.

Terif Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Somewhere in July... Allies surrender unconditionally - their leaders were shot as a deterent that you should not use obsolete strategies in a war Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
