Panzer General (Allied) vs Ike99 (Axis)

[joerock22]

Could you please post the game date when you make a post? I haven't memorized how turn numbers correspond to dates yet It would make the action easier to follow. Thank you.

How is your oil situation? You seem to be a fan of air power, and in that case you will need to watch your oil stockpile carefully. Capturing the Middle East is the only way to guarantee a stable supply, but be aware that your opponent may choose to mount a strong defense. Germany has to be efficient with oil from the get-go, or it will suffer for it later in the war.

The Panzers are given bigger teeth.

German Infantry cross into Yugoslavia. All Quiet on the North Africa Front.

[Ike99]

Turn 20
October 5th 1940

The Infantry upgrade. Two turns ago my Panzers upgraded.

This is part of my overall strategy. Going into the Soviet Union I think I don´t need a very large force but a very elite force. Could be an error, we will see. Perhaps both will upgrade once more before the attack begins.

I feel myself pulled East.

Turn 25

After PanzerGeneral flooded the North Atlantic waters with escorts I sent my Uboats into more southern waters. Scored a nice attack on a convoy. Didn´t see any escorts.

All is quiet.

Since you didn't capture either England or the Middle East, your best chance at victory now is an early, powerful thrust into Russia. Go as soon as you have sufficient forces and make Moscow your main target. If you can take that much ground in 1941, it will be difficult for the Soviets to stop you, even with the aid of the western Allies.
