Germany is too big for my taste.

I would like to play Greece or Malta if possible [:)]

I might be able to do Germany, I'v played them once before (earlier version) and won...and I'm playing this version now as the Allies in another game.

So game is running now. We are currently at december 1939 turn. Nothing spectacular has happened so far. The germans have taken Poland but not attacked in France yet. They have started bombarding the Maginot line with long range artillery to no effect (so far).
 
The british empire is slowly gearing up for war.

In other news i am going to ukraine for a week. Im bringing my laptop so hoping to get in a turn or two.

and now what turn is it?

Hi
 
I was in Ukraine for a week so the game slowed down for a little while but i think we are at march or april 1940. So The germans might strike in 1-2 turns which means that its quite likely that Japan, China & Soviet will be activated in a couple of turns (hopefully before the end of the week).
 
A small recap of what has happened (from the wests perspective).
 
- Germans have invested heavily in long range artillery and bombarded the Maginot line the entire winter. So far this has had a very limited effect and killed around 10-20 INF (four the entire winters bombardment). But the damage is tallying up.
- The germans seemed to invite in the RAF by posting a lot of lonely divebombers in Ruhr. So far the RAF have not attacked. (fear of a trap)
- During the first 2 turns the british navy bombarded Kiel. This has however not been repeated.
- Major reorganizations of the british supply system.
- New british navies in the sea, blockading the german entrences to the atlantic.
- The 8th army is being formed for invading Italy when they will enter.
- It is also reported that the germans have invested in paratrooopers (whatever could they want with those?).

Hi, all....I just took Paris (June 1940) so it looks like the other players will be in any day now.
 
 
A recap from the German perspective.
 
- The invasion of France went pretty much as expected. Lille was taken on the first turn, bringing Italy into the war. The Maginot line was bypassed and Paris taken a couple of months later.
- The allies devoted significant ground forces to the defence of France (although they did not buy the Anti-Blitz card). They lost significant numbers of troops in France... German casualties were fairly light by comparison.
- The British Med fleet staged a surprise strike on the Italian Navy the turn they entered the war. The Itallians suffered heavy losses, but the British got a bloody nose in the exchange too ( 1 Battleship, 3 cruisers and some destroyers I think)
- The British have landed an expeditionary force in Bergen. It looks like Norway will be contested.
- The RAF and French Airforces have yet to make an appearance in the skies. I'm sure that is coming....but so far it has been fun flying uncontested. 

First turn sent to Soviet union now.
 
Some comments to Grumpys recap
- I did not buy the antiblitz card. Basicly because i want Norway in play. Also it feels a little ahistorical. Maybe a weakness, but hey, its a game.
- Im not sure i agree that i devoted significant ground forces to the defence of France. I pretty much kept french producing 20-40% PPs through the game. But i give you that you played very well in France. I made some mistakes, but got some nice heavy equipment out before the fall also. Dunkirk was succesfull.
- RAF made small appearance this turn. I have kept it a threat in being so far.

Where's the game atm?
I sent a turn to Germany 3 days ago.

I sent the turn to Soviet union today. The turn was missent before that. Everybody should have the right emailadresses now though.
 
There will be a cheat message for the west this time. I started the turn yesterday and let the computer stay on during the night. Woke up this morning and the computer was of. Must have been a black out sometime during the night. So i had to redo the turn. Not much action though.

So, where the game at? Anyone on vacation.
 
- The liberation of Norway is going painfully slow, but still progressing. New german forces are constantly being landed but being destroyed in the same speed. The iron ore has been recaptured.
- the germans are rapidly overrunning the balkans and greece. Greece is not expected to hold more than max 1-3- turns more.
- the italian navy is being destroyed as soon as it is created.

Dont know. I sent my turn more then a week ago to Germany.

I sent my turn on to Japan on the 10th, got a reply from him that night...so I know he got it (WAW_to_JAT16.p2) so I know he got it. That's the last I heard of it.
 
 

i send my turn some days ago
