This is a PBEM match with my opponent PanzerRommel and we will pick up on D-Day 1944. This has been a very hard fought match especially on the Eastern Front, with the Axis now being pushed back from their high point which consisted of holding central USSR and Rostov, and heavy fighting near the gates of Leningrad and Moscow. Italy surrendered in the summer of 1943. Now the Western Allies are prepared to open a second front in Mainland Europe against the Axis juggernaut.

If the Allied offensive stalls and we are unable to force Germany out of the war in 1945 the Axis will be declared victorious and sue for peace. (That doesn't seem right you say? Oh let's just say that America tries to drop an A-Bomb and it duds, and now the bad guys have an A-bomb too, and then sues for peace. Sure that'll work!)

The Axis will be reluctant to retreat but large amounts of Soviet Tanks are prepared to route whatever reinforcements the Axis send to the front lines.

Turkey is pressured to cease any further trade with our enemy, joining the likes of Sweden and Switzerland which were also pressured to cease trading activity, and with France liberated, no foreign imports from Portugal or Spain is possible now either. The Allies have also been bombing the Ploesti oil fields and other strategic resource targets, drastically reducing German income.

The Western Allies continue through France meeting only token defenses to slow our advance.
