Here are players for anather WAW game. And I must annaounce proudly that 3 of them are from Croatia.
West - Kondor
Axis - Cveta
SU/China - rjh1971
Japan - Cindra ( new on forum )

We decide that we will make 1 AAR for bouth sides. No secret and plans will be written, only facts and reports. This is AAR after all, not a plans for invasion. And since England is not our native we will write with lots of mistakes.

Screnshot of end of turn 1. I didnot expect so many soldiers down, but I decide to attack all Poland armies in range including one west of Warsav. 1 light tenk survived. My armies are out of range of Polish art.

Nicely said. I was just looking at your spelling and thought that I ought to deduct 1pp from you. Penalize is spelt with a s penalise. We are in an "english" speaking forum.

Always this american and english spelling, when are you people from the other side of the Atlantic going to be able to spell things right?

Spelling in a right way?? Why did you make your language so complicated. Here we write exactly as we speeak. No duble letters, no w,y,x and other things wich dont have any meaning at all. Why use w when you have v, and y when you have i ??
But back to game - Thanks explorer for this U2 wersion. I was wondering when will you name one of 10.000 wersion of WAW after world famous singer Bono Wox from U2.
In Poland - Warsav is taken but we suffered hawy loses in a proces. 1 fighter and 1 bomber goes down, and in a last round we lose a truck. And some infantry of course. All n all this are way too high loses for a Poland campaign.
Turn to kondor as West.

Really you write it the same way it sounds? cool same as Spanish, but then we have letters that sound the same v and b, the h is dumb... but enough of grammar

we are in an Strategic forum

Cool!

Slightly off topic: I found definitions of both "penalize" *and* "penalise"
http://onlinedictionary.datasegment.com/word/penalize
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/penalize

Penalize seems just fine IMHO. Sorry for the rant, please do continue your AAR.

The man is wright! And as three of us are from same CRO village I suggest that we switch this AAR to our native tongue... Croatian!

(Rafael can ofcourse write things on Spanish...

)

Back to game. As you probably already read, I am playing WA. This is first time ever that I play them in WaW so lots of wrong game moves can be expected (especially with navy and supplies distribution...). But I do expect to win those two alcoholics (yes, we can call each other names because we are such good friends! Al of you rest gents-call them Mr. alcoholics

).

Standard first move with Poland, moved arty from town, bombed inf. unit coming from Konigsburg (or some simmilar funny name for a city... real city here is called Babina greda or �pičkovina

), manage to kill few riffles and a horse (merde... I love horses but I would never bring my pet with me to war... those Gerries are obviously crazy...

).

As Goran (cveta) started the game with historical w. blitz, France is frozen to me. Spent my time looking around the world for production centers/units etc.
Goran is a big fan of subs and he do loves English cigars so I expect he will drop in on England soil ASAP-uninvited ofcourse!

So first step for WA production is more tanks! Just kidding ofcourse

, destroyers II are being built (together with some other top secret stuff).

From our dear friend Cindra (or emperor DiMiJe Sake. (roughly translated to WhereIs Sake in this crude language

) we do not expect lot's of trouble first few turns... My agent in Tokio assures me he is to busy chasing concubines...

Hi,
If yo continue to lose your soldiers at that rate, no one will be left to conquer Washington.

After reading Kondor's last post, I'm beginning the think the original source of all things humorous must have been in Croatia

You guys are hilarious. Makes for fun reading.

And while you guys are writing this AAR, you might as well put a good word in for our beautiful Croatian coast ...
You know - draw in a couple of tourists to our beautiful, clear sea ... with beautiful clean beaches ... and beautiful, curvy maidens ... with big, beautiful bottles of Malvazija (or Teran, if you want - the meaning's the same, anyway) ...

cheers!

P.S. blonde Ukrainian tourists would be especially appreciated!

Warsav capured last turn and on this one I got a message that Germany recive Axis pressure minor cards, but I didnot get any? IS this a bug again?( grrr I�will lose interest in�this game becouse of bugs ) I will wait for explorer to tell me is this anather change in this U2 version or is it a bug.

About Croatian coast - it is realy butiful with lots of nice places. Lots of islands, and lots of them are without habitans. Price are somewrer realy higs, and somewere realy cheap ( depend on the size of your bank account ). Girls are the best, but also the hardest to get. All in all - must visit place.
Srndac - is a name of one of the forum frends but it means a dear in Croatian; so I suspect that he is also from this parts of the world? Corect me if I am wrong Srndac

Nope, cveta - yer dead on ... as a matter of fact, I'm looking through my window at that beautiful sea right now.
(actually, I would look at it if there was any daylight left ... but since it's almost 11pm here ...

)

Anyway - keep up the good jokes! All true Croats (and a few others as well) are ROFLMAOing at them.

It is accurate that you should not have received Pressure Axis Card.
It is not accurate that you did receive the message.
I'll try to find where that message is in all the code and delete it.

stop spamming our AAR or I'll have you all shot!

AAAA did Hitler run onto his first obstacle?

No one want's to play with you?! Even his dear raving lunatics friends...

aaaa! I have a solution! Sit in your little sub and come to London and I'll play with you. Mr. Churchill promise! :-)
Or YOU CAN hang your self right now and spare world all the trouble? If not I'll kick the chair in...say...'44?

We had a storm yesterday so I forgo playing the turn. Will do it tonight (if there will be no Storm 2 on program...)

One little storm here and Mr. Churchill is not able to give orders to his pathetic little armies. I wonder what will hapened when we storm the London?
Hang myseve? You must be kidding - there is no single rope left in Germany. We are building hanging bridges ( is this a name for a bridges made of ropes and woods? ) so we may pass the channel and invade your little land.
Since we didnot get the axis pressure card we canot play it ( WOW - what a smart conclusion ) so I decide to push my troops in Yugoslvia before winter. No rush neded since Titos armies cannot run. Belgrade will produce few turns for west,yes, but it will produce supplays mostly for Yugoslav armies. This wont be a problem, and once axis minors joined me way to Greece will be open. But less troops in France becouse of this. I was thinking a lot about this move; I dont wont to play passivly. Maybe I am wrong about this - time will tell.
Also - is West able to move or produce armies in France ( we chouse historical western blic option ). I cannot declare war to France, Norway, Denmark or Sweedan. Looks like this At game is all about playing cards. Maybe we should play Poker instead.

Winter has cousing suplay problems as usual, but Germany advance taking Zagreb and reaching suburbs of Sarajevo. Yugoslav defenders left only few of their soldiers do defend the city. Other run to Belgrade. Also we herad that Yugoslav soldiers tried to evacuate thru Albania but they cannot do that since Italy is still neutral. Now they must hide in mountains.
In France noting new since there may be no battle due to Western history blic ( or something like that ) option.
But 1st see battle occured. Here are the results. England positioned his ships in 3 hexes above Scapa Flow. We attack, and some of our subs menage to retret. Other left to be attack by Tommies next turn.

Our evil foe had 22 subs II already! -6=16 still alive...+more no doubt being build in Hamburg...
We had to respond somehow to that unprovoked attack... Remnants of the attacked Home fleet executed counterattack on Kriegsmarine surface fleet and that went very well! But for Z Germans... /facepalm/.
It seems that never BB-s are better then WWI ones

. At least we will not have to use more paint on them, those rusty buckets where more trouble then worth... They where actually depleting my storages like there was no tommorow... I am sad about all those sailors...
IF THAT SHORT, EGOCENTRIC, MANIAC wants war! We shall give hime one!
We shall never surrender! (Maybe only if they have nice worm cells with 3D Tv-s, no mother in law and if they broadcast BBC 1+ finale in which are playing England vs some other bozoes, then we will considare surrender, but only then!

March 1940
2nd round was see wictory for Germany. Germany sink what remains of old English ships, and we spoted 1 DD1 runing to Manchester. 4 subs attack him, he retreted. Then second attack was ordered, and he run again. On the third battle we sink him, but�he sink one of our subs. I belive that Mr. Churchill will give a medal to captain of this DD1. Now we must found thouse new ships and sink them all. And I wonder did Mr. big cigar recive any DDII from Canada?
Sarajevo taken, defenders pushed all the way to suburbs of Belgarde. Macedonian corps spoted near Skopje. I beliuve tht this unit will tray to suroun and cut our narrow line of advance.

Nope, nothing arrived yet!

Tito's army is fighting well, Germans insisted attacking on winter which is a good thing for me

, no air cover, limited advance by enemy troops and lots of casulties...

On all other fronts nothing much. Subs have started disrupting trade routes in Atlantic, ASW units are being built and we will deal with this soon.
It seems that new factory of Paulaner beer is online near Berlin, that will boost enemy morale and we will have to bomb that one soon!

It seams to me that General Cveta is enjoing his sea victory's just a little to much for my taste.

Is it because he knows it's probably his last one, or because he is beating the heel out of his DEER friend.

I am outraged! That mustache ass.... invaded France! As we played historical w. blitz I couldn't do nothing to stop his opening move. Lille fell in turn one, good play by Goran...

Paratroopers landed on the cities south and west of Paris. So I just evacuated few riffleman from Marseille to the MED.

Channel is largly blocked with enemy subs, but I did retreat few units + FT-s to London.
As Calais city garrison last week went to a picnic they are outside the city. I called them back but they refused and said that I must be crazy, no invasion is under way hik! Leave us the fu.. alone, our wine is getting warm you old far... we are on the leave! And then the line went silent... (I cannot even strat. trans. those guys so I pressume it's a bug).

Spot a hole in a Sigfried line, punched through and now I am admiring Frankfurt from near by

+ Luxemburg is retaken in a hard battle. It seems that Franch are not just skirt chasers afterall!

What I could do if Hitler left me just a few tanks... But he elimenated all 4 LT in opening attack...

France will not hold for long... but I will try to inflict as much as damage as possible!

From the looks of things, it appears that the Hq that is to do the strat movement has no direct line to the unit, as it seems to be cut by the enemy forces. Calais is cut off from the supply line.

So it might not be a bug, but just as the programmers planed it. Sorry.

Well - Lille was taken on 1st turn and Italy is still neutral. Is this a bug? I belive so, and my effort to take the city in first turn so I may attack Engliah in Mediteranean while their ships are scattered wont work. Bad luck. I hope that Italia will wake next turn.
Belgrade taken. No casulties in a process so at the end I may say that Yugoslav campaign was a sucess. West menage to withrow some rifles near Albania.
2nd turn in France sow some heawy fighting. Also - English ships spoted and we attack them by our surface ships and few subs. Battle last for 1 round only and 3 DD2 went down. To bad we didnot have greter range. Callaise taken, and RR to Marseile taken so. I reach Paris suburbs so there is a chance that France troops in Maginot line will be out of suplay.
Here are the kill results for 2nd turn in France.

I don't think so, you can see that Calais is NOT cut off from supply. Paris and Calais are mine, and only unit in between them is my stuck city garrison..

If this is a change also then I must admit that changes on this version were done but the job was not finished. I read brifing in the game to remember the things and facts. I read the messages that comes in the game. And if this are incorect then it affects the game. So on my point of wiev - when author change something it should be written in a briffing of the game, not on the forum.
I read the forum. I read the changes. But we have more than 1.000.000 version of WAW game ( and all are done in the best will ) but it is a hard to track the changes. So I kindly ask that people write the changes in the briffing, and change the message according to the events.
If I am wrong about this, and I again miss a thing ( as I am did alredy few tims ) I am realy sorry. But this game is exelent. It last long time ( weaks, and much more ) and it is sad that a mistake are make becouse of few wrong written sentences. It makes all the good things look bad

In game 1 ( you know rjh1971 what version is that ) kondor recived wetern blic card in 1943.
In other version Azores act as nation? Bulgaria stay neutral during whole game? No Italian ships at all? Italian will join the Axis but a little later, Units that cannot be moved, transported and ect...... Every version I played has some bugs, and the changes should fix the bugs, not add more.
So - all in all, great game. Fantastic scenatio. Well balanced. Big work, but not finished.
It is not my intention to insult anybady. All of the peoples that did some changes did great job. I am to stupid, to lasy and too greter fan of the Axis to make any kind of scenario to be playable and ballanced. Maybe I should keep my mouth shut?
