USSR Turn 12
Few German reinforcements made it to the western line this turn. Soviet forces were able to push forward into Germany, capturing Ukraine in the process... This time I don't think the Germans will be taking it back.

USSR Turn 12
More japanese forces come up out of China and Soviet far East is lost... Japanese Air units are a problem again.
Significant Soviet forces were sent East again...Perhaps in the next turn or 2 depending on how the German front goes I will dipatch Soviet air forces to the East.
Soviet fighters are battle hardened and Nearly elite in experence from shooting down dozens of German planes...

[UK TURN 11]
All visible Japanese forces in southern Asia are wiped out. Another island landing is made, and the RN gets the worst of a naval battle.

The landing in the Balkans in strengthened and more Germans are bombed and attacked. The invasion force is now strong enough that I feel pretty confident it won't be driven off again.

The landing in the Balkans is expanded and some successful airstrikes are made on northern Italy and Ukraine. The Luftwaffe seems to have disappeared at this point.

The naval battles against Japan are very brisk with several ships being sunk on both side. The Japanese air force makes an appearance and is promptly bombarded by the Australian navy.
Ashore - the Japanese have now comitted significant land forces to stop the Brit advance into China. Japanese also throw back a Brit landing but more Brits storm ashore. Things are very hot on land, sea, and air in the Pacific.

Bloody hell, you captured borneo again?
That's got to be the most fought after island in the world!
And is that little white thing above your units in Sumatra a flag?

I think you must have taken Borneo after I took these screenshots - I haven't seen that turn yet. And the little box is a textbox that I think I drew by accident...lawl

USSR TURN 13
Those damn facist pigs did it to me again...

The Germans retake the Ukraine.
Soviet forces assault the city again nearly taking it back but fail.
In the North soviet forces aproach Leningrad and launck attack against lonely German unit... Bad roll of the dice on that one as the German unit soundly defeats 3 soviet units.
My lines are thin in the west. Most of my recent reinforcments have been going East in an attemt to retake some badly needed production from the Japanese.
Seems to me right now that if the Brits and the soviets can beat back the Japanese we will clearly move the game in favor of the Allies...Both the brits and Russia will get stronger from the East asian production and I could come at the Germans in force instead of the weak front I have had up for the last 4 turns or so due to Japanese pressure. I think we are beginning to get the better of the Germans, but it has pretty much just been a stalemate in Europe.
On a side note: Tom has asked me to play his turn for him so he could attend a bussiness meeting without holding up the game...I'm no substitute for Tom, but I will do my best and have maintained the current strategy of landing troops in western Europe.

USSR TURN 13
In the East japanese forces manage to grab Novibirsk from the soviet forces despite being heavily outnumbered. It was a suicide mission for the Japanese as i was able to take it right back, and pretty much wipe out what was left of the attacking Japanese units involved in the raid. Bad for me and good for the Japanes as they fall last in the turn order and was able to collect the production before I took it back.
In the North Soviet Forces soround Evenki Natl Okrug in an attempt to take the city back. I'd say about 70 percent of what little production I have left is being spent on the Eastern front.
I need this production back in a really bad way.

The Germans launch heavy counterattacks against the west part of the Brit line in the Balkans but it holds. The Brits launch a local counterattack to straighten the line then lunch for the East Europe production center and take it after heavy air bombardment.

In Asia there is more heavy combat in south China, at sea, and at Sumatra.

Soviet forces capture Ukraine once again...I would say that the Germans won't be getting it back but we saw how that turned out last time.
German forces are futher pushed back and are being pressed on all fronts.

USSR Turn 14
In the East Soviet forces are taking control...Japanese forces take a stab at Novibirsk again and fail.
Some forces were spotted further south in the history log.
In the North soviet forces liberate Evenki Natl Okrug from Japanese oppression. The plan is to continue this offensive all the way to the coast of China.

Germany is not looking well these days...The Brits have managed to hold East Europe and the Soviets held onto Ukraine.
There lines are growing weaker and Allied forces are taking ground.

USSR Turn 15
The allies appear to be pushing back the Japanese forces as well...
With all the attention being spent on the Germans for most of the game Japan has had a nice run here in the East.
US forces liberate Soviet far East from the Empire. Joint Soviet and British forces seem to be getting the better of the Japanese and are gradually pushing back towards the coast.

UK forces in southern China pull back to regroup. They are taking a pounding from Japanese air currently and have no friendly air cover.
