Axis turn 2 :
Not much action in the west. Liuchow taken at some light cost for the japs.

Allies turn 1+2: Nothing except the vet Uboat damaging an Allied DD, some skirmishes in Southern China and raised eyebrows in Paris of what might be next.

Axis turn 3.
Low countries under german control.
Rare event (2 %) : Soviet occupation of Rumania... will be interesting to see how it affects the game.

Allies turn 3 (Winter 1940):

indeed a rare moment thus worthy of a few lines...

Although Rumanian infrastructure is destroyed and units are gone, the Rumanian Trannie has escaped into the Black Sea. Not sure if by definition or by chance, will allow Germany to be used from Bulgaria to supply any advance units possibly.

Yugo, Hungary and Bulgaria jumped on the Axis bandwagon to hell...

As Rumania will be attacked rather early on there is a lot of work to do to defend the regions behind, like Kiev. However, Russia gets 2 factory points extra until Barbarossa if the Rumanian factories would be repaired. I did not have enough supplies as this turn of events was not expected

What will mostly affect the German builtup is the PM of 3, Germany having 30 production points in early 1940, Axis minors not counting. Emergency meetings in London, Moscow, Washington

Axis turn 4.
Paris Gefallen. German panzer starting to relocate. Italy joined. Air fight over Malta.
War production is steaming, secret weapons in the labs, and HQ planning the future.

Allied turn 4: Russia starts production in Rumania, hoping to get a few turns out of the factories...

one BB sunk each in the Med, a few air attacks yield one damaged DD, two damaged Axis bombers and one resource hit in TLC. Small stings but the cumulative effect is what counts

Allied turn 5 - Axis inability to take out Greece helped the Wallies to put a thorn into the Axis belly, with some Infantry and Arty Greece was fortified. Last Italian BB was taken out, only 2 DD remain. Axis Uboats really get annoying as they hit our trannies without the US paying attention
Allied scientists working double shifts...

Guggy had some poor dice rolls but that will even out, later

Another missed shot at Greece, with way below expectation results. Looks like this combat analyser thing is bugged by english hackers

Allied turn 6 - Again it seems the Axis came short in terms of Autohits but this time the odds for Axis success were lower than in turn 5. Pretty much the same situation in Greece except more units on both sides. Wallies invest a lot into the Greek adventure as it keeps Germany busy.

Axis turn 7.

Well finally Greece is under control. I don't know who's on the right side of the trade off (heavy loses for the allies / delay for the axis).

I think Axis got more adventage, at the beginning WA is short of population, and Germany just do the job in Greece instead of in N Africa.

Allied turn 7 - Wallies repair units while a good portion of the Wehrmacht sits in Greece instead of near the Russian border. After all, it is better to fight in Greece for the Wallies then to loose Cairo...

Allied turn 8 - one Uboat sunk, 4 more to go...

20+ Jap units are lurking opposite Vladivostok, they must have an eye on the Vodka store in town. China takes a deep breath and prepares for a few counterattacks. Germany looks ready to attack with 150+ supplies as well. Stalin calls the workers and peasants to arms.

Axis turn 9.

Barbarossa just started. First soviet line mostly KIA.
Est Poland first, then follow up in Kiev with panzers. Para drop on Odessa, and the soviet troops in Rumania are done.
Japan joined the party.

Allied turn 9 (Su 41)- two Uboats down, 2 remaining. US, annoyed by Japanes involvement in Russia, move to PM 2. Some factories evacuated and troops reshuffled to face the invaders.

Axis turn 10.

No fancy moves in Russia : Wehrmacht advance to Belorussia and Kharkov. Japs move westward.

Allied turn 10 - another Uboat damaged while Bombers hit French factories. Russian strongholds in Smolensk, Rostov and Siberia reinforced.

Most noteworthy is that despite the US WR being close to DOW Japan relies on 9 trannies to supply the empire. Does not seem like Japan wants to start a fight with the US? If not we will

Axis turn 11

Very quiet winter turn. Some fresh troops join the front, ressources and factories repaired... expecting some counter-attacks from the soviets.

Allied turn 11 (Winter 1942) - Due to unfavourable odds Red Army does not counterattack but retreats in order. China launches a massed attack and succeeds in causing some damage. Wallies prepare countermeasures in case Japan attacks.

Axis turn 12.

Wehrmacht advance in Russia, main stack is in Kursk. Velikiye, Smolensk and Rostov flagged.
Japan surprised by high US WR is not ready but forced to launch a limited attack while taking Central Siberia.

Allied turn 12 (Spring 1942) - Russian Army evades battle except for some aerial engagements and reinforces in Siberia. Wallies come up short in Spain. At least they showed their flag

Allied turn 13 (Summer 1942) - Wallied invasion misfortune in Portugal amounts to incompetence - Next try in Switzerland maybe... Red Army takes positions next to Axis Army in Stalingrad, no place else to retreat to. US war machine slowly gets into gear, a batch of P-39 dispatched to DEI.

Wehrmacht call for more troops in Russia. Failed attack of Gibraltar.
Japan striking trannies with strat bombers, and repair captured oil.

Allied turn 14 (Fall 1942) - Russia fights back in Siberia, and further reinforces. It looks like it is going to be a battle with 120+ units...

Wallies use lack of defense in Portugal to finally land. Japanese Carrier Force was completely destroyed, with 4 CV sunk or damaged as shown and the last carrier sunk by BB gunfire thereafter.

Axis turn 15

Quiet turn in Europe, it is winter. Some submarine and naval activity near Spain.
Not much in the pacific, Japan shocked by the loss of the carriers.
