Round 36; the situation is so-so in the north. I lost another hex in the mountain region west of Far Mansion, but on the other hand I was able to finish off a heavy tank with nothing but rifles and their almost bare hands. In the long run however, I need more than just waves of rifles here. Either I build a really strong airforce (the Anarchic Alliance has one as well), or I pour in AT guns like crazy. The downside of this would be that they aren't of much use for anything else than defending against tanks.

The I and V Corps are pushing against the First Core, which is going down, and the II and VIII Corps do an infantry only offensive against the Scientific State. Other fronts are defending only at the moment, since I need more PPs and a little more supply as well.

Round 37; continued fights in the north and south. I suffered another setback on the Mirkaleen front. The Muslim State smashed through my makeshift defenses. I hastily regrouped the units there into a new corps (the IX Corps). Another MS force broke through the woods further north and threatens one of the two roads supplying my northern front.

The Animistic Barony started an offensive in the southeast, beating my VII Corps. I created the new X Corps down there and stuffed it with troops from all over the country, so it's performance won't be stellar anytime soon. I need to finish off the First Core in the south soon, because it's still keeping two and a half of my corps busy (I, V, and part of III Corps). I think they only have one town left, Central Heaven.

Round 38; somehow I'm facing increased pressure both from the Animistic Barony and the Anarchic Alliance. The Muslim State is also gearing up. In the northwest I was almost exclusively busy with fending off the breakthrough achieved by the MS last turn. The units were isolated and/or annihilated, but I didn't do much else.

The southeast is another critical area. I'm thinly defending only here, but the AB has almost finished off the last First Core defenses in the swampy hairy mess that is the terrain in that area. So, they have more time and power to turn on me. The VIII and X Corps consist of mostly infantry with a few light tanks and no artillery or airforce.
