[BPINisBACK]

Here a detailed imaged of the Center front at present:

[BPINisBACK]

OKW hopes to advance faster in the following weeks as our Panzer units are fresh, updated and full of confidence.
Luftwaffe has no opposition and our Generals have very detailed plans for this summer campaing.
We hope to be able to catch up the delayment of the Barbarrossa Operations.
THIS IS WAR, GETLEMEN!!! [:D][:D][:D]

Late July 1941

The Soviet front is in complete confusion after the Axis have cut off the entire center of the Soviet front from all major road and rail, reducing all front line supply centers effectiveness. There will be no option of retreat for nearly half of the Red Army.

Late July 1941

As Germany finally attacks the Soviet Union with all her strength, the British have taken this opportune time to launch their planned invasion of the Axis sympathetic state of Franco's Spain. The British have not been harassed by the Axis for most of the war at land or at sea, and have as a result built up a large army for the planned invasion. Will Germany now be forced to re-direct a major portion of the Barbarossa invasion force back to Western Europe? We will soon find out![:D]

Quick review
Minsk has been conquered as some others towns around the big pocket. This secure our advance and makes the encirclement even worst for soviet forces.
We had a hint about the spanish invasion one turn ago but British were much faster.
We, the spaniards, are hard to defeat!!! [:-]
Let's se...

Quick review

[BPINisBACK]

It seems that axis forces in Russia are in better condition than in our previous game and they can achieve more goals before the first winter.
However, incomes are even less than in our first game!!!
But, but... surprisingly... Vichy offered an alliance Treaty... We say YES!!!
Hope this helps a lot in this timeline!!
Italy seems to be in big problems... as usual...
It looks that Spain will be critical for the short tems of the war. Axis could close the Mediterranean Sea again... or maybe it could be a "cancer" in the backside of German Empire...
Russia is still quite weak, despite they already have infantry technology level 2!!!
Great game!

Late September 1941

The Eastern Front

The German's are advancing with pinpoint accuracy, capruting key cities of Riga, Kiev and Odessa. There is little the Soviets are able to do to counter the concentrated German offensive. We pray for Winter.

Vichy France

Secret negotiations have concluded, and the Vichy French territories have joined the Axis! We have also received reports that Vichy France has received military equipment from Germany to raise fresh units. The British Navy has attacked the Ports in Syria to prevent Axis reinforcements by Sea.

Spain

German Reinforcements, re-directed from the Eastern Front, are pouring into Franco's Spain. The Spanish have defended the capital of Madrid admirably, in part due to additional military equipment received from Germany after meetings in October 1940. Now that Vichy France have joined the Axis, Germany will no longer have to rely on the narrow supply line South of Bordeaux which will surely tip the scales back in the Axis' favor.

Iraq

A Pro-Axis coup has occurred due to Syria joining the Axis. Nearly the entire Mediterranean and Middle East have suddenly turned against the British.

DECEMBER, 31TH 1941

Western Europe

Hopefully the Germans could stopped the British invasion of Spain on time... Sadly for us... Bad Weather prevent us to bomb the units/ports in Spain, so some units could run away.

Well, well done for British!!! And well done for Spaniards (remember Napoleon?): we are stubborn!

Francer is in calm, we are setting up defences with the help of our allies.

No raiding at Atlantic Norht, and just a few at Southern Atlantic.

Africa

The few units that survived around Tobruk are still trying to evade British. Full disaster for Axis here.

Syria and Iraq

In two or three turns all this region will be British.

Scandinavia

Filand joined Axis in our last turn... Will they survive more than in our last game?

Russia
Thanks to the young russian blod wasted in defensive operations, Stalin stopped our advance in Ucrania.
German armies take defensive positions for winter.
1942 will be a hard year for everyone. We need to prepare ourselves.

General Considerations
Fortunately, since two turn our income has raised over 850MPP!!!
We can now invest in R&D, build new units and repair the living ones.
US will join in two or three turns i guess... I hope they need a time to prepare... as they % was very low for a long time. I also hope that British must rest for some months after the losses in Spain.
There are a lot of places to fight: Africa, Atlantic Ocean, Russia, of course... Finland... and, of course, Cryspi will have something to say...
Very exciting!!!

May, 1942.
US declares war on Germany and Siberians arrive at the same time that OKW launches a huge operation in the East...

[BPINisBACK]

Breaking news:
After a second round of very agressive movements more than 20% of the soviet army has disappeared, even one HQ and a second one is badly damaged.
Smolensk, Dnepropetrovsk and Rostov are under severe threat.
Axis losses are minimun, but... The siberians... Where are?
Will they CA? Will they hold Moscow ir Stalingrad?
Its May 30th and no one could sleep in OKW!!
