GG 4.040 tourney Rd. 1: Marshall Art - rjh1971

Axis Winter 1944 (turn 19) - not much, except some Allied trannies sunk. Initiative is with the Allies... 1943 has gone by and I am still waiting for the Jet engine event... nevertheless Me262 have been put into extensive combat training for next spring as new WA fighters flood England.

Axis Spring 1944 (turn 20) - More air attacks on Britain, even in Scotland there is no hideout for Allied fighters... Italian Navy sorties and shells towns along the Irish Sea.

What was perceived as a quick strike to disrupt Russian advance into Kursk became a major throwback, the Wehrmacht was unable to take Kursk and finds itself in a disorganized position. However the Red Army seems weak enough to not pose a threat just yet. After the Wallied invasion of Persia the Mid East was reinforced. It is better to fight the Wallies there than in Europe [:D]

Japan tries to hold ground.

Axis Summer 1944 (turn 21) - More attrition over England. Germany finally wins another battle in Russia. Iraq and Japan reinforced. Kasachstan invaded to cause destruction. One sub sunk off Kyushu.

Fall 1944/Winter 1945/Spring 1945 - Back and forth in Russia, with no Allied advance except in Asia where Japan is cut off from the Mainland but heavily defended.

With Germany solid until well into 1946 we decided to limit out time to play out if Japan can be defeated...
