The weekend proved fun, alot of turns gotten in.

A recap.

U-28 still playing cat and mouse with the RN. Not sure if Lars is even looking for him.

Poland held out longer than I liked due to weather.........Oct '39...........put my timetable off.........GHC not impressed.

Denmark and Belgium fall May '40 in quick strikes.

Paras fall from the skies over France, grabs the mines and then heads east.

French are truely po'd and come after the Para's with a vengence..........this could have been a mistake.

France abandons the maginot line and have eyes on the paras along with french tank group.

German army to the rescue and saves the beleagered lads.

France taken early Jul '40.

GHC very impressed, 2 months ahead of timetable now. Schnapps for all!!

Italians wait for the out come and french surrender and in an act of bravado join the the axis side.........hmph!

Sweden misplaces trust and drops diploma to 11%.

July '40 till Dec'40..........refitting for next Ops.

German AF's practicing on Malta and giving them a good pasting.

Dec '40.........Hungry and Romania join.......OIL OIL OIL for the war machine.

All quiet on the NA front.

Feb - Mar '41

British forces make a strong surge in NA taking Torbuk in 2 turns.

RN shows up in force in the Med taking out 1 Cruiser and 1 BB of the Italian Navy.

British evacuate Malta, but with RN will be impossible to take. If they leave the RN around the AF's stationed there have orders to destroy all.

GHC decides to secure the Balkins, Bulgaria signs axis terms.............Yugoslavia..........well lets say they didn't get a chance to sign squat!!

Russia at 55% late march '41. USA at 38%.

Action continues, up to Nov'41.

USA at 75%, it will come in on time Dec '41 looks like.

Oost front.........things are going slowly.

City West of Moscow is taken. See many Russian armies around the capitol.

Mines are captured in the south.

Atlantic............German subs are causing havoc in the shipping lanes........these are the "happy times" with operation DRUM BEAT in full swing.

3 CA's try and nab 1 subs West of France......got it down to a 8. Experienced subs will be a problem for a RN that is hurting and needs refitting.

Med action..........lost another Italian BB, but he did dammage to a CV (down to 1) and a few BB's before they got him.

Italian forces are still holding out with the aid of German AF's

Had a German corp in an ambfib off of Sicily and headed to Tunis...........Luft HQ reports Corps from Malta embarked on transports and went to Tunis...........HELLO..........quick frag orders to German Corps Commander.............redirect to Malta.

Malta now under German control.........full supply to NA and the Italians.

Could pull there bacon outta the fire yet.

That was a bit of a shock.

Needed to do the colonial troop switcheroo from Tunis to Malta and needed a turn to do it.

Oh well, it's not like Malta is worth any mpps. Tunis and a Italian NA city is a fair trade. A two front war for the Italians is going to be interesting. ;)

Apr '42

General:

Americans still not joined the fun yet, which is a good thing for me.

U-boats still in there HAPPY TIME.

Oost Front:

German advance stalls. GHC shocked at intel reports of the size of the Red army spotted East.

More troops needed.

North Africa:

Full supply in at Tripoli, Italians beefed up and are motivated with the arrival of Germans.

The Siberians have finally showed up, there's going to be a massive battle when the weather clears.

Tunis is still making kipper falafels for the Brits.

And the Americans have decided to get in on the fun. Whee!

Back from Acapulco..............yippie.....I think!

Lets see......Aug '42........the Russian hordes are on the move in the East. Their supply lines getting expended. Germans trading space for time.

U-150 runs into Bradley HQ group on the high seas........beats him down to a 2.

North Africa still in the heat, Italians holding on. Italian corps lost in transport. Med RN taking a beating from air.

Germans get their troops moved from Sweden down to Russia and manage to stabilize the northern front. In the south, however, the Russians go on a wilding. Take Kiev, eliminate one Air Force, most all the Inf, and the last Panzer is slated to die, cut off and alone.

In Africa, we're still trying to decide who's cut off who.

Bradley gets his hair mussed, but it costs the Germans a sub.

Late Aug '42.

Seesaw battle in NA continues, Italians actually came to fight, reinforcements arrive thanks to air cover from Malta

Loss of 2 Uboats hurts but the allied navy not looking so hot. 1 still active.

Eastern front, German forces have taken a heavy beating from the Russia army in the South. Odessa still in German hands.

In the North the Germans counter attack and drive towards Moscow with the aid to paras. Russian forces are forced to redeploy from the southern front to meet this new threat.

Reinforcements arrive on the southern front to aid with stemming the red tide.

All and all a fun game so far with surprises coming from both sides.
