Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 2 In China, the Japanese once more fail to ground strike their opponents successfully.. ..meanwhile the Germans make final preparations for Barbarossa in the East while in the West, its Partisan huntin' time. Its expensive - two partisans down for two Germans - ouch [X(] [image]local://upfiles/28156/F83F79BE12C74D11BFB5ED215DF08BA6.jpg[/image]

Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 3 Back to the Allies and not much to do this turn. The CW do a naval and shuffle a few units.

Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 4 Its the big one, the clash of the giants - Barbarossa starts. First off there is a rubbish ground strike in Finland - 0 units disorganised Then a Stuka attack that succeeds in disorganising two units northwest of Kaunas. A similar result was achieved in Kaunas itself, But a fourth ground strike fails further south. [image]local://upfiles/28156/136C7DDEA98F450E9AB7B226190A8EFF.jpg[/image]

Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 4 The Germans settle on two attacks in an attempt to rip open the northern front. The first attack is at 4:1 but the Soviets get the choice of table and choose assault. Its the Germans best land throw of the game, an 18 [image]local://upfiles/28156/6FE6BBB47716458085127BD3CCC533F7.jpg[/image]

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/24/2013 4:32:45 PM)
Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 4 The second attack goes in - this is a lot more difficult, although at least the Germans have Blitzkrieg this time around. Its a 13! The defenders are destroyed and the Germans achieve a breakthrough. [image]local://upfiles/28156/AC3DCF48016C4872A66800B93F701750.jpg[/image]

Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 5 With the German fighters some way back, the Soviets try and blunt the German incursion with a couple of ground strikes... the first fails but the second, more important one, is not good news for the Germans. Two corps of a Panzer Army are disorganised... [image]local://upfiles/28156/FF116FD0B527492C9DF9765795295658.jpg[/image]

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/24/2013 5:18:04 PM)
Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 6 Just one ground strike this time - against a lone Mechanised unit northeast of Lvov, but the attack fails. There will be two attacks again this time - the loss of the two Panzer Corps has really upset the German plans, but they cannot afford to run the risk of large losses - especially with the Soviet air force being so strong. Antonescu gives HQ support in the southern attack, while in the northern attack, a Pe-8 bomber tries to bring the combat table down a level. Oh dear - I forgot to cancel the Finnish attack... this will hurt. I choose the Blitz table. The Finns lose one unit and the rest are disorganised. The Russians retreat.

Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 6 The Soviets choose the Assault table for the battle with the Romanians. The defender is destroyed, the attacker loses a unit and the remainder are disorganised. [image]local://upfiles/28156/B5CA09385F7E4D4E9A857FCF5F375678.jpg[/image]

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/24/2013 5:24:54 PM)
Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 6 The last attack of the turn - and easily the most important. If this works for the Germans, the South is opened up, if they fail, then the Soviets can concentrate on holding the line in the north only. The Germans choose the Blitz table.... ...and its a 14 - the Soviet 3rd Mechanised Army is defeated and a breakthrough occurs.

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/24/2013 5:42:55 PM)
Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 7 Turn 7 and all the Allies except the USSR pass - thus increasing the chances of an end to the turn. The Soviets try and ground strike the Panzers once more, bringing in an I-17 fighter as escort. The Germans respond with three fighters - all that can reach and so the Soviets bring in the rest of the fighter force. They don't come much more important than this...

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/24/2013 5:50:17 PM)
Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 7 Round 1 and the Germans roll a 17 (DX PX). Either the front fighter or bomber is destroyed along with the pilot. The Bomber is chosen. Round 2 and the Soviets roll a 6 (AA). This aborts the He-100. The Russians now have the advantage 5.2 vs 4.3. They chose to stick around. The Germans decline the invitation...

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/24/2013 5:58:35 PM)
Turn: Jul/Aug 1941 Impulse: 7 They made the right choice - the Soviet bomber failed to disorganise the Armoured units. The Soviets hastily re-arrange their line and bring in two HQ's to organise the disrupted units at the end of the turn. [image]local://upfiles/28156/C2E8272F44D04C2094BCC75222EA1C24.jpg[/image]

Turn: Sep/Oct 1941 Impulse: Initiative and Weather Axis wins the Initiative but the Allies re-roll and win it back! Getting the first turn was absolutely vital in the Soviet Union. The Weather is rain in the Europe and the Med, Storm in North Monsoon and Fine in South Monsoon.

Turn: Sep/Oct 1941 Impulse: 1 With North Africa clear, the CW can turn their attention to Italy. For any invasion they need the proper support. The task at hand is therefore to get units to the Med! A small but powerful RN fleet provides distant escort for the convoy. [image]local://upfiles/28156/C8BC8469A7C449479CB7DCF75EA6DD4E.jpg[/image]

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/25/2013 7:57:49 AM)
Turn: Sep/Oct 1941 Impulse: 1 Meanwhile, with the Luftwaffe otherwise engaged, the CW take the war to the Germans - out of range of pesky fighters! The Hampdens proved ineffective, but the newly arrived four-engined Avro Lancaster [&o] did the business - costing the Germans two production points.

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/25/2013 8:09:34 AM)
Turn: Sep/Oct 1941 Impulse: 1 Now the all important first turn for the Soviets. This is vital as they can straighten out the front line and save the two vulnerable armies - 2nd Mechanised and 4th Siberian - previously caught in the exposed salient around Kaunas. The weather conditions are problematic for movement (without getting disorganised) but it will be the same for the Germans. [image]local://upfiles/28156/40A44E3786554BC3BD8243D784836F45.jpg[/image]

Turn: Sep/Oct 1941 Impulse: 1 Meanwhile the crazy game of "chase me chase me" in southern China continues. This time the Chinese retreat once more in the face of a reconstituted Japanese army... [image]local://upfiles/28156/E6F73A54BF1149298599C41B3BE8D7E0.jpg[/image]

warspite1 -> RE: Bob Flemin's MWIF AARse (11/25/2013 8:21:25 AM)
Turn: Sep/Oct 1941 Impulse: 3 The Axis turn now and the Germans, smarting from losing the initiative, seek to make further inroads into the Soviets... Before that though, the Italians set up air units in the Italian coast to protect the reinstalled convoy run to/from Sardinia.
