Playing Stjeand who is a very good player but I am playing the Axis since Stjeand wanted to try some new things. We just played a mirror game and in both games the Axis won by defeating the Soviets so the point of this game is to see if Stjeand can save the Soviets with some new ideas he has. Both of us thinks that the Axis is too strong or the Soviets too weak. Giving the Axis a way too big edge in the game. To make things worse Stjeand showed me that Germany can take out Belgium in 39 giving the Axis an even bigger edge. I will try to do this myself in this game and see how that works out.
The AAR wont be super detailed until Barbarossa since that is when the real game begins.
We have played Spetember 39 so far. Denmark fell on turn 2 as usual. Poland fell on turn 3 since I withdrew the armour and all the airplanes to use against Belgium it was a sole infantry operation thats why it took 3 turns. On the last turn of September Germany declared war on Belgium and Luxembourg and at the end of the turn Germany have taken 2 hexes next to Brussels and High command is now looking too see what the allied response will be. A spy have reported that the allies have trained extensively to counter this strategy so we will see how it goes.
Battle of the Atlantic started with a bang the first convoy attack sunk 3 MM and 2 escorts for 3 hits on one sub so they have to limp back to port. Was a very short patrol.
