Final picture is of Yugoslavia / Italian invasion. Both sides have small units but hexes were taken by Allies. Axis port though, is very secure.

BLM is working so I am able to show Italian combat hexes. One hex was taken by Combat on Yugoslavia Peninsula. It is circled in red.

First two pictures show the front and how it is converging into one piece.

Second contact line picture. You can see how all the hexes that Germany withdrew from are not occupied. Bad weather hampers.

The next picture I wanted to show is the 84 German Infantry Division surrendering. This has not happened much in this challenge because Metalist is so good at protection. And to be clear, this is just an anomaly; for which the Allies have had so few of.

Next picture is of the La Rochelle fort / port garrison surrendering. They cannot move so always surrender if forced to retreat.

This will sound odd but after a week off I found it challenging to construct the AAR for this turn. There is much going on for each turn now but I do not want posts to be boring. Yet I want to be able to show a conscience narrative of the complex turn.
