<r> Restarted.<br/>
During the start I chose, more-or-less inadvertently the Break Pact with Stalin Option right after Poland. The Result is that USSR declared war June 22. I believe this slows down the USA entry (US 45% right now). I'd imagine also alters how the AI scripts the Soviets- I think ...

<r> Looks very nice-<br/>

I understand and agree with the rationale that a Mussolini Mandated Offensive should end as it did- complete UK victory destroying basically the entire Italian 10th Army. The dynamic element of the NA Campaign is very hard to simulate without very restrictive "idiot ...

I completely agree with your version of Soviet surrender. In the context of this kind of game, the Axis should basically have to "advance to the Pacific" to ensure Soviet capitulation.

Crispy-
Again thanks for your work here- It is a real improvement over the original.

<t> Okay- The British Desert Army is really tough- the AI has moved most of the Brit AF to the Desert (2 Fighter, 2 Tac and 1-2 Strat) and combined with the two level 3 experience Units is a veritable mincing machine; the air alone doing 7-10 hits of ground units and 3-6 hits to the one German DAK ...

<t> Your notes on the various events are good- actually critical to playing the game, Crispy. Do you have a doc anywhere. I didn't see one here or in the game file. You've done a lot of good work.<br/>
I'd note that one can disagree on a particular historical premise but agree that "if" then the ...

So, events chosen:
German: Yes Molotov, Yes Lithuania/Brest (accepted by AI)
German: Yes aid to Spain
Italy: No aid to Spain
German: No Tirpitz,No Carrier
Italy: No Carrier
Next up invasion of France

<r> Alright, my 5 cents - from what I have learnt Krakow was never destroyed since Red Army Marshal Konev saved it by means of manoeuvre warfare - instead on pressing on towards the town it was rendered impossible to be kept by the Germans through disruption through mobility so they had to withdraw ...

<r> Okay. Briefly a competent commander will analyze the current situation and then bring ALL the relevant combat power to bear in the most efficient manner; while weighing the risks. The Soviets were no different than any other army. So, as usual, Loki100 gets it right:<br/>

Well from our game I can confirm you're a devious little stalinist so-and-so [:D]

Spreadsheets. Dude! I'm like, trying to get away from all that stuff when I play games....[:D]

Very nice work. I'm still trying to get my head around all the admin stuff. Still haven't figured out the easiest way to handle all the support units shuffling.

<t> The more I play our game, chaos- the more I'm interested in playing the 1942 Scenario. I think a 1942 as the Axis, after .04 is top of my list. I'm enjoying our game but the book-keeping element of the system is grinding me down- which clearly would be a big problem in the 1942 scenario. All the ...

<t> At this point will there be anything like a possible historical Soviet Offensive, Bagration etc? I don't mean as catastrophic for the Axis as Pelton has Out-Generaled the Greatest Leader of all Time (tm) [:D] but it seems like the Soviets have little chance of even breaking the Axis line in any ...

It's a fair cop!
