A quick look at Strength & Losses at this critical juncture.

Lovely pictures, mate!
I hope this will be a very looong game!
There are a lot of diferences from the vanilla game. Some are good for me, but not all (of course).
For example, the USA entered at war inmediatelly after i landed in UK!!! [8|][8|][8|]
I also think that russia has much more "partisans" spots, am i right?
But, let's fight, this is just started!

The Eastern Front

The slow German advance has allowed the Soviet Union to feel very confident as 1942 draws near. The Germans are still equipped with Infantry Weapons I, and while the Axis still hold the advantage over USSR in this regard the Wehrmacht does not feel superior without. The Luftwaffe has also remained concentrated in the West which has worked to the Soviets favor. In fact, the Soviets feel so confident they have even launched a counter offensive into Bessarabia!

Sealion

Relentless German bombers continue to pound the British from across the English Channel, but the Axis forces on the ground have been unable to launch an offensive towards London.

November 6, 1941

North Africa

The Axis apparently have come to accept that Tripoli will fall soon. Next stop Tunisia!

The Atlantic

German raiders are everywhere. With the Americans now at war we have additional ships to help put an end to the German happy time in the Atlantic.

Portugal

As expected Portugal surrendered to Spain.

Allied Propaganda is so useless!!
We have build a big stronhold both in Russia and UK to advance quickly in 1942 to the glorious Full Victory for Axis!
Despite figthing at home, Brithis are only able to kill very weak units (3 points of strengh) not more!
And, in Russiaaa??? What a mess! A counteattack with guys on horses and axis?? This is just chatter.
And Tripoly? A singel artillery unit has been able to stop 4 assaults even from Infantry Armies!!
We are setting up Wermatch and Luftwaffe for their main objetives in 1942. You will see!!

The Eastern Front

The Red Army counter-offensive into German territory (annexed Lithuania) is a very telling display of the current Soviet morale. The Soviets continue to send more troops to the front line then the Axis have been able to destroy. Meanwhile the Romanians, who have since been reinforced by Germans, continue their winter stalemate in Bessarabia. German Army Group Center and South have had limited success, but neither Kiev or Smolensk have been captured. The Soviets begin 1942 in very high spirits indeed!

North Africa

While Italian North Africa is completely under British occupation, the Axis are still in control of former French territory (Tunisia, Algeria) and hold Gibraltar. Remnants of the DAK and an Italian Army Group have established themselves along the Mareth Line in Tunisia. Could a decisive battle be on the horizon, or will the Axis fight for every inch of former French territory?

The Atlantic

The Royal Navy has suffered heavy losses thus far in the war, in large part due to an Axis decisive victory in the English Channel as the British attempted to defend against Sealion. German U-boats have since taken advantage in the Atlantic, raiding our convoy lines at will. We hope that 1942 will see a change of fortune in favor of the Allies and put an end to Germany's "Happy Time" in the Atlantic.

Sealion

The Axis invasion of Britain has been costly for both sides. Germany has reinforced the tight front with a much stronger assault force then the original invasion but now American soldiers fight side-by-side with the British, Canadian and Free French to push the invaders back into the Sea. The Allies will soon find out the limits of German resolve to capture London.

Crispy images are so good that i only will write a short report.

The Eastern Front

OKW feel trust in their forces. Stalin has move forward hundred of teenagers and old people. Despite the great number of enemy units they are quite weak, just a few of them are a bit dangerous.
So, even with the bad weather we could keep going on with our slow (at this time) advance.
But the big movements will be in the short future...

North Africa

We hold on Tunisia as allied forces know... but that doesn't mean that we are sit playing cards... Time will tel...

The Atlantic

UK has cancel the soviet convoys as losses where so high that it was useless (more than 100MPP in all the convoys, not only the Russian one).
We expect a strong CA anywhere... let's see where...

Sealion
Yes, western allies are fighting hard... but... we still hold the line with more powerfull units... despite the bad wheather.

So, 1942 will be a very bloody and interesting year...

April 5, 1942

Good wheather brings Luftwaffe back to action both in West and East Theatre.
New reinforcements are in UK and, again, two british units were destroyed and a third one was almost exhausted.
Convoys raiding are going on (soviet one is closed yet) with losses close to 80 MPP.
Meanwhile in the East, Kiev is conquered (at last) and a strong, and sucessful, offensive are launch all along the front. Soviets take great losses. At our back more axis troops arrive ready to fight!
1942... what a year!
