Status: offline 		This screenshot shows how Grandmaster of TOAW Bloodstar will now destroy pocket south of Beyrouth. In the pocket are:
11th Army Grp HQ (UK, oh, nice catch ), Arab Desert FCE (motor cavarly), Hebron Bde (Israel brigade), Palestine Bde (Palestine), Haifa Bde (Israel), Jerusalem Bde (Israel), and some armored engineers. I think that I will destroy them, they are encircled. Will start with minimize losses and see what will happen. Here is Elmer very agressive but I brough by rail and by ships sizeble force from all over Europe (Bulgarians, Italians, Germans, Syrians are here, Turks and even Croatians...).
My plans is to drive straight to Suez and defend there. That pressure is needed because I took big risk, but Italy, and Greece will have to defend with those units that they have for now. It will not be easy, Elmer is non stop sending reinforcements, nasty Indian, US, UK, Australian troops and they are formidable opponent. They already evaporated some of my Turks ( 2 thirds of division)...

Status: offline 		Here is Mosul area... Very tough fight because Elmer is not idle, he counterattacks all the time. So we as usually must outsmart him using our TOAW Grandmaster skills.... I want to clear the table here, it's not gonna be easy but I want to capture whole Iraq, Iran etc and then defend. Well, here is a chance for offense. Problem is that Elmer is attacking me at the same time here and up north in Persia...

Status: offline 		Around Mosul area I brought additional units: Turks, Bulgarians, Germans, even Kosaks from Russia, SS, one Falshimjagger Division is in action here as well... I must capture Mosul but direct attack would lead too much casualties, my advice avoid that and go around his flanks...

Status: offline 		It's a long way to Teheran Here's a map from Lake Van to Teheran. Very, very tough fight as Elmer is attacking here and he is quite agressive. He already beaten some of my division but we are also now attacking... He have here: Persian, British, Indian, Australian troops all very tough fighters so this fight will not gonna be easy, and terrain is mountains mostly and in the middle of winter 1947... Even Rommel praised Australian infantry around Tobruk.... Well, I expect lot's of casualties but I have also brought reinforcements. I must win this attritional, set piece battle and capture Teheran.

Status: offline 		Here is Astrakhan area on Eastern Front. Elmer is attacking like the devil has possesed him. Is he berserk or Silvanski has put him in berserk mode... He drives his red units (status and color) and now after 5 turns of non stop attacks on Eastern Front he doesn't want to stop. Every turn he launch app. 100 attacks on Eastern Front. I have destroyed his paras but he will again try to land something behind my front lines... And who said that arty is uselless in TOAW. See Astrakhan, with one barrage I have destroyed 1000 Russian Rifle Squads (yes, in one battle around Astrakhan). He is throwing enormous forces of 3 Armies against Astrakhan but we will defend it till the last blood.
I have destroyed his bridghead across Volga (I think 4 Rifle and Tank Corps) His pioneer taken a hike and he was actually surrounded across Volga so it was very cheap victory and he lost something like 4000 Squads....

My bridgehead across Wolga is slowly shrinking in size but I will fight for Stalingrad each house block and each street and we shall never surrender and they will not evict us from Wolga

I hope that he will soon run out of steam. Well, he is attacking with Rifle Corps and enormous amount of tanks, arty, planes, etc... My units are divisions mostly. How long he will attack we will see. I will try to stabilize situation here but it is not easy at all...

Status: offline 		OK, for a change this is screenshot of naval combat near Greek coast. Elmer is pushing two fleets here... I sent one Italian fleet to attack their ship from a 2 hex distance and we will see what happens. I have already destroyed some of his ships, I had lighter losses than him. But Elmer has much bigger amount of ships so I must be careful to avoid bloody losses.

I brought my 2 main German fleets and positioned them 2 hexes distance and now we will see how this fight will end. His range is 1 hex. Well.

Status: offline 		And this is south Spain... As you can see Franco was chased from North Africa and with remaining troops we made opposite Dunkirk and saved some Spanish NA troops. Gibraltar was captured and Francos and Fuhrer dreams come true lol Lot's of battles here. Also naval fights as well. Portugal joined Allies and I've got Rumania. I am gunning for Portugal lol but so is Elmer and he sent big naval fleets and he have landed in Portugal but I will destroy those forces. He was too stupid and some of his units were destroyed at sea by my fleets (he moved them too close so bye bye few full divisions at the bottom of the sea. I sunk also some of his carriers here.

Here will be some naval battles as well. What the heck I will attack them with my fleets and see what will happen. Or to wait? lol Portugal at first chickened away toward it's capitol and then suddenly in a rare moment of bravado made an attack with 4 divisions but achieved nothing. But 5 for the spirit.

------------------------------------------------

It was lazy saturday morning on German airfields near peacefull town of Aleppo in Syria...
Oberstumbafuhrer Gerd, chief of airfield was talking with leutnant Joseph Goebels Jr in his office : ".....My dear Joseph, I don't like that. Due to heavy fighting in the south there is not a one soldier present in the town of Allepo, they are all sent to the south... What if for instance Americans or British and their para devils jump behind our lines and land exactly in Allepo?"
Joseph "Nothing we will just scramble and took off to the nearest empty airfield of the TOAW erm... our operational map...."
There was a buzz over radio "bzzzzzt..... bzzzzzzzt...."
Radio operator run to the Oberstumbafuhrer Gerd "Sir, we have some American prisoners here, they are from the US 2nd Corps, 17 Airborne Division. They are telling us that their whole division will be soon in Aleppo! They are very near and they are marching onto the town! Sir, what we should do????"
Gerd "Nothing, just SCRAMBLE FAST WE MUST TOOK OFF TO THE NEAREST TOAW ERM... TOWN AIRFIELD NOW. Pronto."

This will not be easy as I have commited most of my reserves, I have still plenty but this is not pleasant move from Elmer.
Very dangerous situation.

Status: offline 		Meanwhile in Beyrouth there was activity in the harbor... For a couple weeks three Italian fleets have been stationed here and they are sorting out against enemy ships with great success....
Admiral Commodore 64 Giovanni Alberto was speaking with his leutnant Ricardo Giovannotti
"Ahahhahahahahah, my dear Ricardo! Did you see how many US and British warships we have burned? I didn't even count was it 20 Enemy Carriers sunk or 40? Not to mention Battleships, Heavy Cruisers, Light Cruisers and countless Destroyers? They are sitting ducks! Now there is revenge for Rt Matapan and Taranto! Il Duce rest his soul" and count Ciano would be proud...
Ricardo "Yes, now is our chance to sink third enemy fleet with our SuperMarina Primavera, Flotta Adriatica and Seconda fleets... They are sitting duck we are not even needed to stay at TOAW range hex 2 ermmm, sorry I got carried away.... in essence we will close to the nearest fighting distance and fire with all our guns. We already destroyed Soviet three fleets near Murmansk. So we crippled the enemy badly. And our losses were relatively light, some RL ships and 33 Destroyers. But we have in reserve 32 Destroyers and also RL ships some and Destroyers are making in our good German shipyards so we will cover those losses..."
Admiral Commodore 64 Giovanni Alberto: "All right, all to the stations! Gentlemen, PREPARE FOR ACTION! We will destroy American US Fleet today. It is Carrier Task Force but without planes, they were destroyed earlier by us also. It is American Task Force 14.1, US 5 MAC.
But as you know this is just a finishing blow because we have already destroyed many of it's ships... So this is just a last act of this American fleet. They are going to the bottom of the sea.
And after that we will bomb some airfields near the coast and took off to try to destroy British and American and Free French Fleets near Gibraltar and Lisboa. They are shelling our positions and around there our fleets are short ranged and badly damaged and in port. We have two range 2 fleets so that is crucial for initial fight on the sea...."

Status: offline 		Meanwhile there was a top Wehrmacht conference taking place in Berlin and King Leopold III, German Emperor was speaking with his top generals..... Oberkommando Der Wehrmacht.

"Gentlemen, we are mostly holding our lines, but we have some unpleasant landings in our rear and also we are slowly but surely approaching that time when we will have no reserves to send. In general we are already overstreched and overcomitted. Yes, we got those VolksGrenadier Divisions with 40% in their erm... training and they are slowly filling up, we will commit them but that will not be enough... Is General Silvanski here, he is in charge of our Replacement Army....Are you saying that we will be penalized because we are good in defense and Allies will get tons and tons of new units hehe?

General Silvanski just said "Sir, maybe you will be surprised but in any way I think that it is much better to bleed Soviets to standstill, we have just destroyed one whole Soviet Corps with one good placed BARRAGE! Imagine this, only with our guns.
And if we could repel invasion in France then we have a chance....

King Leopold III, German Emperor "Yes, and Gott mit uns if we fail...."
