The war is just one year old and the European political map has changed quite a bit already.

The defenses around Moscow make all the difference and we are suddenly advancing only a single hex towards the city.

I see you're facing your own Zergs Chuck.[:D] I expect that on the Eastern front.

The Italians are doing a good job so far in the Mediterranean theater entrusted to them.

Harry,
 
I wish I were facing the "Zergs", but I am afraid I am the Soviets, and I am the one throwing L1 infantry against the huge Panzer Korps Chocolino deploys.  I wish I had the resources to do more, but I am being whupped in fine style.  I am sure you are looking forward to the campaign in the East, as am I.

Axis, November 1st, 1940

The Allies counter our diplomatic efforts at Spain of course. But it was still a good week for the Axis that has seen the fall of Orel, Vinnytsia and Tunis. Moscow is now cut off from the rest of Russia but there is much more work left to do.

This is curious : I do not remember actually using diplomacy in Spain.
