Those bastards aren't landing here this turn. Unfortunately we lose the port to the west of the map i did not reinforce that port for some retarded reason.

Sorry singapore.

We did manage to take the norway ore hex. A small victory! but with all the base US cities online we can hope to open up a second front soon. Also i have gibraltor very secure so i will reinfroce that then attack into italy hopefully giving some pressure on the germans to ease off on teh soviets. It is that or they will be destroyed again.

The battle so far.
At least this time i have been building trucks for the soviets to let my troops move. I don't know how much good it will do me but we shall see!

The greeks are still fighting hard. I found out i can use cargoships to supply right to greece too! So i've been funneling in 20-50 rifleman a day and some MG's. Just trying to keep them a thorn in teh side of the nazi's. I also took norway and finland as the west and ussr.

While my engineer is not around to blow that bridge i did give them hell. I can accept 30% jap dead if it will just hold them off for a bit.

Looks like the greeks are still fighting strong

Operation Windshark

Look at those paltry defenses. My operation will be that i'm going to land a fully motorized division (halftracks) at amsterdam since it's undefended. Should be a nuisance. I'm also going to land engineers so i can blow those bridges and try to hold this town as a bridge head. I doubt it will happen but it will hopefully take his eye off USSR and divert some resources. Withoout giving him vichy like we did last game.

The Soviet AF makes it clear the nazi navy by finland needs to go home.
As the west we also spotted 9 german UBoats at port in Rome.

Mobile engineers help him rebuild bridges and drive forward faster. I am targeting them and arty units with my Divebombers are priority #1. Also that unit was at a critical junction i tried to hit it with 2 Armored Car groups but was repulsed. Hopefully it will cause him to bolster his supply lines a bit.
I've also built a couple AC units to try to encircle the invading germans from the north and south to cut supply lines. If i can do that for one turn i'll be in a very good position with him at least having 50% supply for a turn.

This chinese unit is going to try to cut off supply lines to the japanese city hopefully stall the drive in Chungking.

This turn abu goes after greece again and is repulsed probably because of my 80+ rifleman reinforcements each turn. I also encircled the final nazi's in norway next turn they should bite the dust.

The invasion force for amsterdam. Both forces are 100% mobile with halftracks.

And mortars at a 1/8 ratio with the infantry man.

My british med fleet hits the arty units attacking greece's capital. I have 25 carrier air at malta ready to reinforce this unit next turn to continue the harassment.
