This AAR is between me (Axis) and Kaibag73. I love to play very aggressively with the Axis and in this game providence (and german armours) gave me an opportunity to do so. I will try to do something rather extreme and both me and my opponent think it might be interesting.
Summary of the past events:
- Low Countries and Norway were double blitzed in '39
- Warsaw fall on turn 4
- French were unable to build defense line in time, so Rouen was taken on turn 5
- Paris was surrounded till we got foothold in North Africa (Tunis), Vichy was rejected
- Greece and Yugo were taken in autumn/winter season of '40
Here is the situation in February '41:
No opposition in NA.
Preparing for Barbarossa.
8th Army captured all of Libia.
Casualties up to now.
The plan is to attack both Russia and Middle East in '41. To do so I will try to capture Turkey in 3-4 turns just before Barbarossa.
Why it might succeed? Best British units are in Libia and can't rail, there will be an uprising in Iraq at the same time and my opponent shoudn't expect it at all, so maybe he will panic.
Screen taken just before the invasion of Turkey. In transport there are two infs (both with offensive leaders, one was ss'ed) and an armour.
