If Red is good with that let me know however you split your forces is up to yall;)

Hey Red, I just peeked at the Canadian OB after May '45 and I would suggest to Comrade Stalin that we try to invade as early as possible ... the Canadian war machine seriously declines after about 1944! My agents are ready and waiting ... let's hit 'em early and make the world safe for a worker's paradise! I would suggest an attack in '41. Naziism will be our next opponent, but with the factories of the capitalist warmongers, we cannot be defeated! Hail the rise of the red Maple Leaf!!! comrade willy will lead the fierce canuck commie militia!

Scenario A: 1941 - USSR and Canada unite to liberate the workers of the Northern America from the evil capitalists.

In January 1941 election Red Maple Leaf party wins unexpectedly with a landslide victory. US and UK outraged by the Red Scare (nice play of words ha? ) launch a pre-emptive strike to install a friendly regime. Soviet Union manages to squeeze several divisions of 'volunteers' across Beringov Straits to help Canadian comrades before the Straits are blockaded by US Navy.

Scenario B: 1944 - USSR and Germany (?!), having decided not to fight on two fronts Hitler signs a pact with Stalin against US and UK. A joint invasion (USSR-Germany) is launched across the La Manche. As the troops are rolling off the landing craft they are faced with a join US / UK force.

Either one sounds good to me, Comrade Red ... let's let the capitalist running dogs decide!
How about a 10% cap on arty and a limit of one air strike per player ... also no prelaid mines (I'm flexible though)
The Workers have been opressed long enough! It's time to spread the Revolution!

[red]

I think our esteemed opponents are trying to figure out in which scenario, they would lose fewer points

[stevemk1a]

After checking the Canadian OB, I would suggest we wait until late 1941 or early 1942 rise up, otherwise the only Canuck AFV's are Vickers VIb's and Armoured cars. Ideology must take a back seat to practicality:(
-Or, on second thought does that just make it more interesting ... whadda you guys think?

[red]

Since it is a joint operation, you can borrow some Soviet AFVs.

[VikingNo2]

I like both, but if we do B then, I think the force agaist Germany and Russia should be US and UN what do you think?

For Hades I like Scenario B the best do you want the US or the UN
"B" is a good what if; if USSR and Germany could have gotten along. I an iching to get started, Red and Willy start talking stradagey

[red]

if its scenario B, what year?

[red]

44 ? also, lets talk setup: arty, mines, air, paras etc.

[VikingNo2]

Let say, no mines unless you lay them during the game.

10% thats about 900 per team member

Air 1 maybe 2 paras I guess but if you buy the plane there you can't buy strike aircraft, I'm thinking 2 give me you thoughts

[red]

viking: sounds good to me, how about 2 air/paras and that's it, if agreed can you set it up? willy, are you on board with that?

[VikingNo2]

I agree, Hades tell me what you think do you want US or UN:D

[stevemk1a]

Willy likes ... my guess is that Red is USSR, so I guess I'm German. (what an unholy alliance ). Is this a meeting engagement? Red ... my email is lokken@telus.net if you need secure comms for strategy!
-Watch out, Free World!

[VikingNo2]

yes this is a meeting engagement, as soon as Hades give the OK, who is the team leader for your unholy alliance

Once again its those two countrys agains the US and rest of the world

[red]

sorry viking, leader identity is classified may be you will find out once the shells start falling, for the nation setup, let it be Germany.

[VikingNo2]

LOL when Hades gives the OK me and him will set up an post it to the AAR section

[Hades]

Patience is a virtue!!!:D

UN vs german russian

[red]
