SU/Ch Sum'40

Good to see our political spies achieving success in the balkans They might just buy us enough time to put up a fight next year...

Summer 1940 - Churchill smiles as he sees Italy loosing all its African posessions. After bombardment of Yugoslavia nothing happens - Sitzkrieg at the Italo-Yugo border! weird - did the Axis High command forget the foot soldiers??

Screen shot shows the Italian fleet bottled up in the Adriatic Sea.

WA Fall 1940 - A quick look back at the Naval battle of Summer 1940, since Italian Propaganda only told half the truth: Italian Navy suffered losses as well, with one BB and DD left undamaged.

[Marshall Art]

Back to Fall 1940 - in a quick strike British Swordfish bombers attackes what was left of the Italian Navy, wiping out all but transport vessels and the lone Axis sub in the game. The massive troop amassement in Yugoslavia certainly will have to move east rather to the south....

Ja Wi41

SU/Ch Win'41

Funny the axis forgot to mention the huge buildup of troops on the Russian borders... [:-] Planning some sort of mischief soon?

Maybe Marshall art will get a screenshot of it.

Winter 1941 WA turn - Sardinia invaded, Germany bombed, Italian BB damaged in Harbour.

Due to an autohit one of the bombers attacking Germany got shot down, still the remaining planes did some damage.

turn sent to A511.

[Marshall Art]

Indeed Russia seems to be in imminent danger of being attacked in spring, see SC of German buildup.

[a511]

as expected, barbarossa! but the loss is heavier than expected.
 
with greece joining allies in Sp41, some forces are deployed to punish the greece [:-]

[rjh1971]

Japan Sp41

Japan has decided to join the crusade to get rid of Comunism once and forever, so far operations have gone as planed and the troops placed in Easter USSR have been wiped off. Rail lines bombed.

The Chinese nonetheless have built factories bomb resistant, boy they're being tough fortunately their AA was not acurate this turn.

SU/Ch Spr'41

Losses on the Western front were largely damaged and not destroyed units which bodes well for the defense of the SU Rebuilt German rail in Kiev and Kharkov are taken out to slow their advance.

WA Spring 1941 - Well we don't like the Commies either but since our enemies' enemies are our friends we decided to ship some supplies to Russia so the Red Army can fully cripple the little advance the Axis has made so far. At least we expect some hot action on TV... Needless to say that we wait for battle reports from China as well, since a good portion of the Japanese have left the scene to go bear hunting in Siberia.

Back to the Med where a Greek DD was assimilated into the Allied fleet, pounding its shells into Sicily during the Invasion of this Island. We are carefully considering our options, whether North or South Italy is next that is...

Besides the naval actions (2 Italian Trannies sunk) our Bombers also hit E. France and Austria successfully, hopefully annoying our adversaries enough to give up [8D]

Jp Su41

The Japanese army continues its unopposed advance toward the heart of the SU.
Central Siberia raillines bombed to prevent the soviets to operate forces.
This time the Chinese met their doom and tasted the acuracy of Japans bombers: Chungkins factory burnt to ashes, Kunming rail systme is a wreckage and a concentration of troops in Liuchow was badly hurt 3 out of six infantry were damaged by dual attack with CAGs and BBs. Will they still launch an offensive or rather think it twice and retreat.
Only thing that worries the Japanese High Command is that we are running very low on supplies, only 9 supplies after all this operations.

[Sandeman]

SU/Ch '41

The Soviet hordes have mobilized and now position themselves to stop any further advances on either front...
