W41

Here's the Middle East report

Iraqi Muftis have toppled the remanants of the colonials

The Italians attack British Africa and it's maybe a stalemate - Brits loose an ART, Italy a MIL but one Brit MIL goes uo to INF

Reinforcements come in bearing in mind that the Brits have sent their CAG fleet all the way around the Cape

The German subs move to make transport to Africa continue to be difficult

A vet German INF bounces off the Cretans even with Regia Marina bombardment -[:@]but the island is now depleted

Forces rearrange to protect Iraq and Trans J and isolate the Brit INF in Syria

Elsewhere a German Sub has sunk one other transport near France and is exposed but the pressure has to be kept up and some risks taken

Norway was considered for action earlier on but the OKW had no resources to put in to this given the heat in Middle East

Damaged Changsa factory had been restored to health so large bombardment takes it down to where it was again, one HB damaged

The Kunming rail is knocked out and a CAG goes up Vet

We can see that the US scumbags have 5 supply ready to go over the hump in Mandalay so they must be concerned

The Japanese ponder [:-]

Spring 41

Not much to report

Spring time for Hitler in Germany [:)]

The atlantic sub has survived and snipes a transport

Subs are now 3 evasion and Allies have no ASW assets above 1

It is only because of American diplomatic displeasure at merchant losses and absence of a larger German fleet that there is not more activity [:(]

Some airforces are rearranged to parry the Brit FT swarm assembled in Norway

The Syrian remnant of the Allied ground forces in Med is kicked out

In Japan some more resource is knocked out and a MIL killed in air war. No Japanese losses




xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/17/2009 5:33:47 PM)

Finally US production reach 2. And another news is our ASW also reach 2.
Norway and Africa are enforced to put pressure to Germany.
Hitler is still hesitate whether or not attacking the their friend Soviet ?




BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/17/2009 8:50:19 PM)

Well the guys were sitting around with all this new gucci kit and most of them hadn't done anything since France

They were getting bored after looking at spring blossom enough

Luftwaffe goes for Norway and it looks like it may have been better to let the RAF come to them

BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/17/2009 9:44:21 PM)

The rest of the Axis goons have gone east

New screen caspture thingey needs mastering to get this right

Axis have got Baltic, East Poland, Kiev, Kharkov, Odessa but couldn' get Belorussia although this wasn't attempted but was envisaged as a target

The Axis didn't take bad casualties but didn't destroy as much as intended - and in particular the luftwaffe is a bit lessened for momentum

Rostov factory was bombed and elsewhere we have 2 trannies down for 1 damaged sub




xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/17/2009 10:53:32 PM)

41 Summer
The sleeping bear is now awake, and Germany will realize it is a wrong thing to attack a stronger enemy [:D]
First counter attack is mainly organized by Red air amy.
Easten poland we got a better results even with less moded planes.
Karkov rail bombard to slow down enemy. And a suicide attack by our black sea fleet damage the only German TP there.

xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/17/2009 11:00:00 PM)

And W Allies are doing all to help Russia, tons of supplies transported.
Germany has no strengh to protected their air now. Even in Baltic sea.

F41

Here is Eastern front for Germany

Couldn't roll on much except to Belorussia and Vel Luki

I expect some action up North near Leningrad

There was a small victory against the red air with one FT destroyed

Grozny Oil was bombed out 1 resource

One sub got wasted near Canada

Another is damaged for transport in Norwegian Sea

BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/18/2009 1:15:56 AM)

Here is the east - not much happening.

Italians are slowly reorging

The supply is gradually dwindling in Rhodesia under nuisance bombing from Italian air

A sub gets a transport in Bay of Bengal and blockades 1 in Ceylon

F41

The Japanese have bombed out the Changsa factory and reorged

It's noticed that Zhukov has headed for the west

[;)]




xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/18/2009 11:40:15 PM)

41 Fall,
Russia made a solid defence. Germany can't advance any more.
Our fighters won another battle.

Japan ready to jump. Too bad one UK carrier damaged in ASW mission near India.

W41

On the Russian front

Russians have concentrated a large tank Army in Moscow but presumably at cost of industry in Smolensk being left open which is raided by panzers, as is Kharkov where the railhead had been reestablished by the Reds

A large investment is made near Leningrad

German air is reorged to be out of Red fighter range

Smoke battalions active in Romania [:D]

Factories are bombed by Strat air to no effect

New sub fleet has sunk transport in Norwegian Sea

No air on Western front but decent amount of flak established in some areas

BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 5:37:10 AM)

In Middle East the Axis have lost patience with Abdul Aziz who has been given enough time to realise that the Brits are not an effective sponsor

Subs and Italian LF cut off movement of Indian Army from Kenya

BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 5:45:42 AM)

W41 for Japan

Most of DEI has been grabbed. Java and Borneo are next

In Sumatra Indian ART is pitched out

Amazing performance by MIL in Mandalay which damages HB and PARA

A CAG scouts LA and finds that Bush Snr hasn't pumped much oil but he has got 7 FT colocated with Pacific CAG as of last few months! [:@]

So settles for Pearl Harbour instead

There are now only 2 surface fleets in Asia that Japan can see- one LF trapped in Java and one LF in Andaman Sea

There must only be a handful of Allied transports between East Africa and far East Pacific

China has some chance for offense in Spring but can't mobilise whole army as far as oil is available

Will let Ning show other pics

Very interesting AAR, good work guys, keep it up!!!




xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 7:29:38 PM)

First to show some pics of Japan's last turn.
The hero militia stoped Japan one precious turn from attacking India, let's see if this can change something.

xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 7:34:13 PM)

42 winter, WA turn.
Japan put carriers into 2 groups, this give US a good chance to damage 2 carriers near Califonia, as we have fighter protection so got no counter attack.

[image]local://upfiles/26556/4E2803F0D93645869ED942A9BD1E5CB9.jpg[/image]




xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 7:42:40 PM)

As it is the first winter, and we got the Combinate arm bounus, Soviet launched the first offensive with all tanks in Moscow. Good result for our side, but surely German will bite back in the spring.
Another side Karkov is liberated, and next is Kiev[:D]

Spring 42

OK reminder to self

READ CAG COUNTER STRIKE RULES

[sm=fighting0056.gif]

Really mixed turn

Reasonable result against Russians in Veli but Centre and South Groups under strength. Kiev let's see what happens there

Alot of bods in UK will invasion come?

Luftwaffe back up but all in Germany no distribution to front lines

India is going to fall tho next turn

Pics later




BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 8:59:13 PM)

OK here is India factories mostly busted not many troops and not enough supply to fix it

Japanese poised



[image]local://upfiles/17990/998BDB05763F44C89F70FAD477D940AF.jpg[/image]




BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 9:02:26 PM)

Germans take back Veli

[image]local://upfiles/17990/5E9430FCB7A44378B820AD2939895296.jpg[/image]




BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 9:05:07 PM)

End of turn forces in Veli fine but Army groups in Centre and South slim

Kiev going to be attacked next turn from Kharkov? Most likely

[image]local://upfiles/17990/B52BC341706548E9B8010FAB30426483.jpg[/image]




BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 9:07:27 PM)

Norwegian Sea sees trannie and LF damaged

Another sub damaged in deep Atlantic for nothing

More on Japanese later




BenTaylor -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 10:53:53 PM)

Pacific remnant of blockaded transports

Plus LF annoyingly freed from Java

1st attack was set up to leave LF free to be attacked but INF bounced off and required 2nd invasion which left port retreat

Still Japan has defense in depth for any attempted AUS break out

Japanese carriers still in deep sea

Wonder if China might try some tricksiness they have supply for an attack

Also a wandering MIL presumably trying to get to Liuchow and then in to IndoChina?

[image]local://upfiles/17990/D394C038EB3B43AD908C60C7F5A030CC.jpg[/image]




xianing -> RE: GG 4.040 tourney Rd.1 Ben v Ning (5/19/2009 11:11:15 PM)

42 spring, Soviet reinforced Leningrad. And the south army group liberate Kiev.
Seeing not too much defending force in W France(4 mils, 1 art, 1AA), thousands of American landed easily even without casualties.
