Jul/Aug '44
Impulse #6 (Axis)

Both units hit. That was unexpected, and it sort of makes our planes a bit obsolete. Time to consult with my Ally.

I knew you would have asked about Italian plane. Similar things happens to me also.

Result… I didn’t expect any less At least pilots are saved.

Euro-Axis now have a plan of action.

Begun executing part one of it and expect it to be complete tomorrow. No Allied interactions expected for part one.

If any tanks move in Normandy on day light Typhoons will intercept

A small update. Part one of land movement is complete. Hopefully we will get to the fun stuff soon. Shooting down those pesky Typhoons.

Germany slowly withdraws in the East.

Land Attacks

Germany finally takes time to mop up the surround allied units.

41 vs 3 and 43 vs 3. Any Allied Ground Support? Axis flies no planes.

Allies sends no planes and both attacks are then a success for the Axis.
New weather is a 4 find except Rain in North Monsoon.

J/F 1944 Allied 7

FF naval, others land (USSR uses O-chit to reorg all HQs)

Port attack
US CVP in Brest

Port attack is a total disaster

Axis 1 Allies 10 (I had a bad feeling and almost rolled in opposite order. I should have followed my spider-sense)

Avoid combat or increase AA up to 1 of 1 or lowest 2 of 5?

We go with getting AA to 1/1 and remaining points to reduce damage done.

CVP is shot down on a 9.

I think this was 3rd port strike to Brest and I would say someone else need to plan next port attack...

Naval move
FF some escorts drop down in sea boxes

Ground strike
US hits Batavia with 2 fighters
CW hits in Normandy one hex with ART and Typhoon

Any German planes intercept? Allies have fighters to intercept.

No intercept.

Sorry for the delay. I thought this was already answered.

ART hits infantry and Typhoons goes after tanks with rockets

One hit in Batavia

Rail move
USSR rails MOT div from Vlad area to Ukraine

Land move
Troops advance in all fronts again


Both NAV near Brest will be overrun, where do you want to rebase them?

Question about overrun in Brest: During test run div stopped moving after overrun, is that correct? Or should it be able to walk back? I assume German ships sail to Kiel if I overrun them (30% chance to intercept and sink each ship)?

Rebases as follows (not able to check map for stacking).

Ge fleet -> Kiel (All as one group)
It SUBs -> La Spezia
It NAV3 -> Leghorn
Ge NAV3 -> W Genoa
IT FTR2 -> Lyon

Should be able to continue moving if it has MPs remaining.

Have you tried using <CTRL + left click> to do the overrun moves?

When I tested ships were forced to rebase one by one. Is that correct?

Italian subs are not overrun yet, at least according to current plan. I edited my post.
