28 January.

Nothing happening except US tanks are the 1st allied units to get '45 tech: though the difference between 44 and 45 for anything is pretty stingy.

So here is my secret masterplan for '44.

To take sveint by surprise and thereby to achieve the following

1 Soviets to batter the Germans senseless in the east
2 UK+ US forces in UK to liberate western Europe
3 Allied forces in the Middle East to liberate N. Africa

Simples

11 February

Nothing happening except that I remembered that trucks are 3 points each, not 1 so I will only have a bit over 1,000 trucks by the end of May.

Hasn't anyone else got any photos of their dog(s) to make this part of the AAR more interesting?

Sweet, but I hope this photo has been doctored, or did you just buy him from Satan's kennels?

As eventful as the previous turn. Truck building starts in earnest, but I actually have about 500 in the kitty.

Thanks MM. Appreciated

No turn back from sveint. Probably because he's hiding in here somewhere. The searchers are 2 Sarloos wolf dogs + 1 utonagan

You can take a cuteness break from all of these non-eventful posts and check out my dog.

Actually, the photo is undoctored. The flash just had an unusually bad effect.

10 March

In Russia, sveint takes fright at the massed hordes facing him, and runs back to a new line centred on Minsk.

I deploy more reinforcement units and buy 560 more shiny new trucks

Sveint is very busy at work at the moment so he's having to be slower with his turns. Nothing will happen anyway for a while, so keep sending more dog photos [:)]

24 March

Nothing of substance to report. Just a bit of shuffling around in Russia and trying to find somewhere to put reinforcements.

The only photo we have of our current dogs when they are awake and peaceful together

The smaller one is a french rescue. She's half husky, half ????? They normally prefer fighting all the time. Looks and sounds ferocious but it's just play. It's 50:50 as to which one starts it, and there's never a winner.

Sveint loves animals but sadly can't have animals where he is, but this is as scary as he is, so might be what he would have if he could
