Terif Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 July 13, 1941: - Russia is preparing for war, Barbarossa has to start next turn - UK air from Africa operates back to England, all 4 carriers + battleship bombard Brest, transport approaching the city. - Germany still has 2 AFs in the west (Paris+Brussel) and 1 AF+Bomber+HQ in Sicily. So Barbarossa will be lacking air support (7 german air in service, so max 3 against Russia) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desaix Posted January 22, 2005 Author Share Posted January 22, 2005 -Building of defences in France -Kiev assault launched with strong air support. -Ligth attack on Riga to prevent it to entrench -Troops moving toward centrale mine and getting ready for the assault. Axis keep easy neutral (Norway, Portugal) free for now to delay US intervention. Vichy stays neutral as it is more usefull as defense line in France and buffer zone between Spain and English Africa booming colonnies... This last thing migth be reconsidered pretty soon as most English moved to Russia when they heard about Russia Vodka... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 September 7, 1941: - Minsk is lost, attacking russian tank did not enough damage, so the counter got cancelled and the corps north of the city reinforced. - the bulgarian army in front of the central russian mine survives 3 tank attacks also at str 2. - last finsih unit destroyed, Finland surrenders - Russian Vodka tastes excellent, so some more UK units wants to go to Russia. But first they have to liberate France...Spanish supply cut off between Bordeaux and Paris. Carriers, UK air and 4 ships training at some italian corps.

Terif Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 October 5, 1941: - carrier+AF training in France. Without USA in the war (readiness 68%), Allies are lacking ground units in France, so they can´t advance at the moment Mass destruction in Russia: - corps in front of Riga killed - Bulgarian str 2 army moved south but was still placed at the front...so UK and russian forces destroy it and damage Rundstedt HQ in the rear. - around the central mine a huge battle accompanied by airbattles (both Germany + Russia lv 0 jets) starts: german tank and army destroyed, another army reduced to str 4.

Desaix Posted January 24, 2005 Author Share Posted January 24, 2005 Not much in the West as Allies are not moving. In Russia, numerous counter on Russian corps but no major destruction, lack of AF is a pain. 2 russian corps down to 1... Germans troops stoped and gathered to be less open to counters and to figth back in a better position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desaix Posted January 27, 2005 Author Share Posted January 27, 2005 Axis faces its incapacity to progress or to counter anymore: - Casualities of spaghettis are causing riots amongst Italian women population... - A last attempt was maid by an Italian sub to sink one of this UK carrier but failed due a protecting Uk sub. - Wermarcht is unable to get Riga in reasonnable time, after couple of month of unsuccesful attemps, some more AF would have been needed. Some officers have been hanged. - In Kiev area the huge Russian and English army prevent any further assault. - Production is not sufficient for the war. Axis surrender and Adolf is exiled to the Spitzberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
