Jan 3rd 1943 winter/severe winter



The Germany Gar in Paris is so tough ! After 2 tacs & five ground arm attack , it still survived !!


The improvement in Austria & poland is slow . But we have enough time !

Jan 23rd 1943 winter



Finally , we liberate Paris ! We will soon liberate Belgium since no Axis defence there .

Italy comes to its last minutes & Turkey join Allies .( to lighten the Axis burden , we ordered the Turkey troops just stay in their homeland .

Seems the Axis are not doing too bad, not sure what the Western Wall appears like here.. Jan. '43 with bad weather till April or May means that it could be as late as Fall of '43 before Berlin is directly threatened. Italy, is really going to be a problem here(it should be a lot harder to eat and sets the stage for Allies taking it for granted as a giveme)... Historically that terrain was worse than hell, I often think the Allies sought D-Day to save lives because of the perfect defensible terrain there. In my opinion German Garrison units are worth next to nothing aside protecting from Partisans and giving away a city practically. If you're not using a Corp or a Mech, you mine as well save the cash.

yes , Axis play well . since after Sweden , Ireland & Portugues join the Axis , Axis get enough pp to production & repair even when they are losing many cites

Hello again! It's time to reveal what was going behind Axis lines. Just wait a couple a days, and I'll make a collection of some screenshots.

Finally , we kick Italy out ! We also liberate all France & close to Brussell . It is the first time we can print this pbem in one screenshot !

Mar 4th 1943 mud/winter


Since the weather is mud , no big actions ,just conquer Brussell without fight & supply & upgrade all units . We also prepare a landing just north from Berlin by Red army !

Finally , Red army launch the spring offense & liberate Warsaw !

Meanwhile ,Allies rush into Holland .

May 3rd 1943 fair



Finally weather turns fair ! Axis made a massive retreat from Poland front & back to their final defence line . In the west , Allies para jump in Esson & made two big breakthrough in Seigfried line . Nothing going to stop us !

May 23rd 1943 fair



Finally , we take the industry center of Axis ! Usually , Axis will become very poor , but in this pbem Axis still have around 100 pp per turn from Sweden, Ireland & Portuguess.

June 12th 1943 fair



Finally ,Allies & Red army are not far from each other .

July 1943 fair



Everything looks like Axis coming to its last minute , but then Axis asked to permit Swdish troops to reinforce Belin & Hamburg ( before it these troops can only defend their homeland ). To make this pbem more interesting we agree to their requirement . Next turn many Swedish troops will rush into Germany & fight to death for the third reich !

Aug 1943 fair


the reinforcement from Sweden arrive ! They made a Humburg fortress .

After I read this AAR, I began a game with Morris. But Morris succeed using allied fleet to contain the German Air Force in Med again. Though he lost most ships in med, but I lost the real battle in east front then I lost the game. Morris is a real Strategic experts.
