27 DECEMBER 1942 - OPERATION URANUS HAS BROUGHT BIG GAINS FOR THE SOVIET ARMIES AS THE GERMANS ARE FORCED TO WITHDRAW FROM THE STALINGRAD FRONT AND FALL BACK TO MORE DEFENSIBLE LINES SOUTH OF ROSTOV

TAGRONOV AND MARIPOL HAVE FALLEN BUT THE AXIS FRONT LINE IS BEGINING TO STABILISE AS REINFORCEMENTS ARE DRAFTED IN TO STEM THE SOVIET JUGGERNAUT.

THE CITIES OF AZOV AND ROSTOV ARE STILL IN GERMAN HANDS BUT WHETHER THEY CAN BE HELD FOR MUCH LONGER IS AN OPEN QUESTION.

11 APRIL 1943 - ALL QUITE ON THE WESTERN FRONT...

SPRING MUD & RAIN BRING OFFENSIVE OPERATIONS TO A HALT - BOTH SIDES ARE DIGGING IN

ANTWERP & NAMUR HAS FALLEN TO THE FRENCH BUT AXIS FORCES SHOULD BE ABLE TO SLOW DOWN IF NOT STOP ANY FURTHER ALLIED ADVANCES IN THIS THEATRE.
BRUSSELLS THOUGH IS NOW AN AXIS SALIENT, WHETHER IT CAN HOLD OUT ONLY TIME WILL TELL.

SOUTHERN FRONT 18 APRIL 1943

THE SOVIET STEAMROLLER CONTINUES TO ROLL WEST WITH THE DNEIPER BEING REACHED AT CHERKASSY

OKW HAS ORDERED A FALL BACK TO MORE DEFENSIBLE LINES AS THE MUD STOPS THE SOVIETS IN THEIR TRACKS.

AXIS ALLIES WILL BE SENT TO BLOCK ANY RUSSIAN ATTEMPTS TO FORD THE DNEIPER RIVER.

SOUTH OF THE DON THE GERMANS STILL HAVE VERY POWERFUL FORCES IN SITU TO BLOCK ANY ADVANCE SOUTH TO BAKU AND THE VITAL OILFIELDS THERE.

Thanks for that! It makes it all worthwhile that others are following the thread and I'm making some kind of sense!

It's difficult playing both sides simultaneously but on the other hand you can steer things a bit more the way you want it to go...

26 SEPTEMBER 1943 - FASCIST ITALY COLLAPSES! MUSSOLINI IS OVERTHROWN AND ARRESTED.

HITLER ORDERS OPERATION ALARIC - ITALIAN ARMED FORCES ARE DISARMED AND DISBANDED.

HUGE GAPS IN AXIS LINES ARE NOW DENUDED OF TROOPS

A DECISION MUST BE MADE TO WHETHER TO TRY AND HOLD ITALY OR WITHDRAW TO MORE DEFENSIVE LINES.
