The Axis reacted quickly to our Mediterranean expeditions. A couple of infantry corps appeared near Istanbul and a Turkish Army was operated to Tripoli, blocking Beirut port and slowing our progress north into Turkey. But worse still: the Liberation of Greece by the US troops did not turn the whole country into an Allied territory as I was expecting. All the ports and cities in Greece remained Axis controlled and the 1st US Army ended the turn out of supply surrounded by an angry mob of Italians! I made a mistake with the 1st US Army not leaving it in Athens after landing

The flow of reinforcements for the Middle East is constant. General Mc Arthur sailed directly from Australia via Suez (only later knowing that it was almost intercepted by the Japanese fleet). From England General Lord Gott disembarked in Suez along 2 British Armies and some Canadian tanks. New US Strategic Bombers level 4 were based in Cyprus. US marines disembarked in Istanbul to reinforce the 2nd US Army holding the important city and the passage to the Balck Sea. Amman and Cairo were liberated.

Clear skies and sunny weather in the whole USSR for the Germans! After holding for a year the Soviets abandoned Narva in the Baltic States.

The Germans hit hard our units defending the Moscow approaches with multiple air attacks combined with Tigers. Severe damage to several units.
At last some reinforcements arrived including 2 Heavy tanks units. General Zhukov was recalled and set his HQ at Gorky taking overall command.

Stalingrad is under siege and enemy panzers approached Saratov. Some good news: General Timoshenko was evacuated at the last moment from Baku and reached safety disembarking at Krasnovodsk, on the other side of the Caspian Sea. The USSR has only 36 land units left…

A British corps captured Konigsberg in the rear of the German front. Some Allied Naval units entered the Baltic Sea, where only 1 U-Boot remains in active service.

Status: offline 		The Canadian tanks captured Aleppo and Syria finally surrendered next turn, but Tripoli is still defended by the Turks. Some additional Allied air units arrived to the Middle East. The British AT advanced cautiously towards Baghdad. German tac bombers retired towards the Caucasus.

In the Red Sea the Japanese CA Tone intercepted one of our DDs. Also operating is this area was our old friend U-32. As we had 2 US CVs refitting in Alexandria we blocked the passage towards Suez with another couple of expendable DDs and moved back the fleet near Cyprus. We didn't want Japanese CVs hammering our CVs in port, we had enough with one Pearl Harbor.

A new year begins.
In Europe 4 panzerkorps are attacking our beachheads, at least they are not fighting in the USSR. The Hague and Amsterdam were lost, Hamburg and Konigsberg hold for the time being…

The Germans assaulted and destroyed one of the fortifications outside Moscow, the ring is closing around the Capital. A panzerkorps approached Saratov and Stalingrad is still in our hands but not for much longer…

Another Japanese SNLF unit disembarked are captured El Aden, a bright move, as the Japanese now have an operational port in the area to resupply and refit from.
The Turks are still holding Tripoli and Beirut port in Syria, while more Turks were rebased to Adana and Diyarbakir. The US loses the 1st and 2nd Armies in Greece and Istambul.

Status: offline 		I want to comment this moment, which in my opinion could totally change the game but did not. Taifun disembarked 3 land units north Europe (2 killed in 2 turns 1 forced to go out with total Axis loss of 0.4 panzer strength) 3 units Greece-Istanbul (all killed with minimal Axis loses) and I don’t know how much but guess at least 10 units in Egypt-Syria. So he had at least 15 or probably more land units with a lot of aviation and tons of Carriers. I was extremely afraid that he will invade Italy and force it to quit the war. I had 2 anti-air, 3 corps, armored train, HQ and 2 garrisons Italian troops in Italy. If Taifun went all in to Italy with 15 land units including tanks with a lot of bombers amphibious strikes he could easily kill Italy even if I send german panzers there. Just take Rome that’s it.
BUT he made few different invasions in many places which was easy to block, went Middle East which made no real problem to me at the moment of invasion. So he lost his chance to make sensitive strike when he could do it. I did not expect he will go Egypt and Middle east, but this place was less sensitive than any other.
My move with Japan. Actually all Japan fleet was going in Mediterranean to protect Italy. I was just 1-2 turns late with allies taking Suez. My amphibious transports were waiting additional troops to invade India. I decided to send them suiciding in Egypt just to win time for Germans in Turkey. My general strategy is straightforward – all in to kill Russia, so couple of turns for Germans were worth 4 Japan units.

Moscow is evacuated. The few remaining troops retreat north and east. The USSR has 38 land units vs 110 Germans, the country is exhausted. Japanese forces approach Novosibirsk and Krasnoyarsk in Siberia. Singapore is assaulted by 2 SNLF from Japan.

The Germans are pouring many troops into Turkey including at least 2 panzerkorps, 2 infantry corps and a General from Europe and 2 Armies, some infantry with paras and artillery from the Caucasus. The Canadians retreated from Erzurum as soon as they saw the first panzers. Heavy combat around Baghdad. The US marines holding Istanbul are sending very very worrying reports…

The enemy has now 4 HQs including 2 German HQs in the area. But our strategic bombers are keeping the whole area in low supply, interdicting the main railway connections. Indian tanks recaptured Basra in the Persian Gulf.
