III Corps is being unleashed. I hope this works

I'm going to have some fun in the South - to see if I can draw the WP forward where I can get them better...

Here is a picture just before my last round of attacks. Not much changed after the last three attacks.

Here is the view as the sun rises on June 30th. Should be an interesting day...

The WP has a lot of Regiments along the Weser River in this sector, with no obvious location to hit initially. A lot of the units are really in the red, in fact the only stack that is mainly in yellow is the one topped with the 3-2 TR North of Bremen.

One option is to attack cross the front and take advantage of any gaps that open up.

A second option is to focus on one or two stacks and hit them hard and see where things stand after these attacks – time is on my side after all.

I’m going to go with the first option. I’m also going to use airborne and airmobile units to start causing retreat issues and maybe even more supply issues for the WP. These units will land just South of Hamburg and NE of Bremen.

Time is on my side, but I need to get supply hooked up to the units in Jutland.

A look at the centre, where III Corps is about to breakout, I hope.

Here is a look as the sun comes up on Canada Day.

The 30th was a day of intense back and forth fighting around Bremen. The WP pushed back everywhere and were successful to the SE of Bremen.

I was happy with the overall results. I also learned that air mobile units will not move across enemy units, which was a bit of a surprise. It also makes sense.

As the sun comes up, the WP units to the red bubble are all unsupplied. I was surprised that they did not attack the paratroopers...

Today, the Brits and Canadians are going to push in a NE direction. The West Germans are going to attack more towards the East.

Most of the Dutch will rest for the day – they have certainly earned it.

I want to bring in some more paratroopers, likely just South of Hamburg.

While studying the battlefield, I noticed that I have sea transport. I think I can move a couple of brigades. I’m going to move a Dutch and a Danish brigade into Kiel. This should cause some issues for the WP units NW of Kiel.

As I mention on the diagram below, I think it would have been a better idea if 1 UK Corps had followed behind III Corps. It would have given me more options to expand the breakout. That being said, it would not have helped the forces in Jutland at all.

A good start to the day

Here is the situation on July 2nd.

Hey you guys: There's been some kind of mixup in that Mike thinks the turn is
with me and I think the turn is with him so I'm wondering if we're going to
restart or what. Mike hasn't answered my inquiry yet so I don't know where
we are yet. I'll keep you guys in the loop.

I'm afraid our current game may expire.

Here is the situation in the North

A look at the centre. In the South, I will continue the destruction of the Czech forces near Munich. As well, I will counter attack against the WP forces near Nurnberg.

Here is the situation on the morning of the 3rd.

Independence Day! Here is the situation as the sun rises

It is the morning of 5 July and NATO is dealing big blows to the WP
