The Wehrmacht macht

[sveint]

April, we make slow progress with variable weather (naturally).

[sveint]

1941-05-09

The UK is on the offensive and shatter an Italian Mnt Corps. But I think we have it under control... I hope.

[sveint]

In the east the weather clears and we overrun many, many rifle corps.

[sveint]

1941-05-23

The Soviets invade Lubeck and take Hamburg. In the east they cannot take Tehran, they've been trying for over a month. This surely means the Soviets are desperate and on their last legs.

[sveint]

The Italians under Giovanni Messe also have the situation at Tobruk completely under control.

[sveint]

In the East we trudge on, killing countless unfortunate Soviet soldiers. The pace is slow but steady and enemy losses are staggering.
Unfortunately Manstein is killed in action, replaced by Model. By now our two recon units are completely exhausted and will be withdrawn from the frontlines.

1941-06-06

Koningsberg is invaded and two air units overrun, Kriegsmarine is blamed. Persia falls.

At this point we are still making good progress, but the troops are starting to get tired. I need to get better at using supply trucks.

1941-06-20

It was the very last thing Germany wanted - a fleet battle.

[sveint]

Another day in Russia.

[sveint]

1941-07-04

Germany gets Assault 42 so our mass production of infantry comes to a halt as we upgrade.

We move forwards in Russia. I think we have a chance of reaching Moscow.

[sveint]

1941-07-18

The Soviets seem to have trouble creating a coherent defense line. But our troops are getting tired too.

[sveint]

1941-08-01

Up until now the Soviet defenses in the south have been very strong, but this turn they crumble.

[sveint]

Moscow is in danger.

[sveint]

I don't understand why the Soviets are holding at Vitebsk, supply there must be scarce by now.
Leningrad is heavily defended, much more than Moscow.

[sveint]

1941-08-15

Germany gets its last infantry corps, production queue is now empty for all nations. Manpower is at 88% and all production is going to reinforcements and replacements. Finland gets 20 production per turn.

[sveint]

The Soviets are risking a giant pocket at Velikie Luki.

[sveint]

1941-08-29

The southern front. Note how we always attack where the Soviets are weakest.

[sveint]

We are at the gates of Moscow, can we take it?

[sveint]

I don't understand Soviet strategy in the north. Some very strong units that could have been used elsewhere.

[sveint]

The Soviets also have a very strong presence in Finland.
