As well as Germany.

The Russian watch in horror as the Germans wake up, rebase two bomber from the southern pocket and turn up two fighter, one being the best in the game. Of course, Russia has absolutely no fighters.
The allies bite themselves for not bombing that HQ strong enough!



yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/2/2015 8:27:12 PM)

Considering the situation, the allies hand a flower to the Russians: they will themselves ground strike Berlin. And the hex containing both planes. These will have to fly this impulse or likely never. And the western allies fighters can handle the German fighters. The Russians can attack Berlin, using an offensive, in the hope that the allies bombing raid will have some effect. If they fail to again capture Berlin, the Russians agree that the western allies can give it a try on the following impulse.

As always, the Commonwealth and USA both use a super combined.
Russia a land offensive with Zhukov.
France an air impulse.

The allies pass on the opportunity to port attack the Japanese fleet. They have better use for their bombers.

Just an idea of the units waiting to find a place to land.
And they will, given enough time!
And more ships are waiting in port, with yet more units to load.

In Berlin, the allies find it necessary to fly up to four squadrons to intercept the Ta152.
This is a fairly good idea...

North of Kiel, the allies ground strike the second fighter which the Germans kept in reserve and had not the range to reach Berlin.

The British manage to desorganize one of the resurrected bombers...

But they fail in Rostock.
However, two more German corps are disorganized, which now makes up to 80% of the remaining active German units (in supply) desorganized: the German army is just unable to do anything.

The Russians grudgingly thank the western allies for their efficiency.

The Japanese fly in defense of Yolohama, but they definitely can't make it.

At long last, the Russians seem to get somewhere in Berlin.
The streak of bad luck seemes to have stopped, and with the city now defended by one corps, no possible reinforcement, the city should fall in the next impulse.

Note the bug: The Russians are supposed to lose no additional unit beyond the para, but that's not so: they have to destroy a second unit.

However they are getting nowhere in Finland.

This was just for the fun.
Well, the Russians soldiers are not exactly smiling.

In north Germnay, the estern allies are doing their job, pummelling the remains of the German army, trying to open the way west to Kiel. After the initial failure, that's the best bet now.

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 6:40:12 AM)

In China, the Japanese northern army is almost completely destroyed now.

And to the Japanese dismay, Yokohama falls at no cost to the allies.

In Germany, the Russians manage to capture one of the reamining working synth oil hidden in the mountians: this also spell the end of the resistance in that area.

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 6:52:13 AM)

The Commonwealth take the opportunity of a better weather during the moonsoon to land a paradrop near Saigon: the city should be captured in the next impulse.

At last, the Commonwealth is continuing the island hoping they have been doing.
Yap falls.
The Bismarck sea is almost fully under allied control.

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 7:13:38 PM)

The allies carpet bomb Tokyo.
The Japanese fleet has been extremely lucky and was not found by the US fleet! it has available fighters, and they fly: it is not worth the risk of losing any of the land unit defending Tokyo. At the worst, thats a +1 that the allies won't have.

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 7:16:38 PM)

But this proves useless; the allies pilots were drunk anyway.
Nevertheless, there was no better use for these fighters, considering the risks...

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 7:20:31 PM)

The allies launch a carpet bombing on Tokyo.
The Japanese have no better use for their fighter but to try and have this raid fail.

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 7:22:17 PM)

But the raid would have failed anyway.

The USA launch a paradrop attack on Tokyo.

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 9:25:47 PM)

And everybody sends almost all available planes into the battle.

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 9:29:01 PM)

But Tokyo resists. It is likely saved as there are few available reinforcements available around.
Yet, one never knows: the USA and Comonwealth may reorg their troops and launch another attack; there won't be any additionnal naval support, which may well make the defense of the city difficult!

yvesp -> RE: Global War : a Japanese AAR (9/3/2015 9:30:25 PM)

Not surprisingly, Diego Suarez resists too.
I must admit that I was really not on that part of the word, and Madagascar escaped my attention too long.

The USA advance in Lübeck.

A at long last, Berlin falls!!!
With the capture of Saigon by the advancing para, and that of Athen (by the advancing US armored marines), thats three objectives that fall this impulse!

In northern China, the Japanese army is now almost destroyed.
