Using Attacking HQ support pays off... The first combat that really matters and I skip it without taking picture... Japs rolled 6, no losses to Japs but 2 units are disorganized. China loses one unit. [image]local://upfiles/39586/0E3F486ABC1847EFBE9CA09D44300279.jpg[/image]

This impulse was perfect success for Axis. I expected nothing else from surprise impulse. Germany used almost all their bombers. They have one Stuka and Bf110 left. [image]local://upfiles/39586/8B061659F3D44AB1AAA7C0742A95D27B.jpg[/image]

Japan rebases NAV to Machuria (to the hex Japan just took). Germany rebases Stuka to Chisinau and Bf109 to cover it. Bf110 is rebased to Vilna. No HQ reorganization.

USSR after first impulse of Barbarossa. I hope this turn never ends [:)] [image]local://upfiles/39586/6898B465FF5B4ADCAB31E6B63029B7D5.jpg[/image]

M/J 40 Allies 6 No DoW CW, USSR, China Land. US Combined. France Pass. US recovers another CP back to Pearl. USSR uses 122mm to ground-strike in Manchuria. The results are woeful. [image]local://upfiles/47730/E70074483996466FA67C2AE6EBEF1FA4.jpg[/image]

Nationalists continue to push forwards. CW Terr advances from Kenya to Italian Somaliland. CW advances towards Libya, overrunning the port of Sousse. A 5 causes the disorganised CL to rebase. Send it to La Spezia?

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/30/2015 10:06:31 PM)
Yes please.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/30/2015 10:47:18 PM)
The French don't bother to intercept. In USSR, Soviets retreat. Communists move up on Chengchow. 1 land combat declared in Manchuria. USSR commits 2 Lnd and the 4-factor Ftr as escort. Do Japs wish to fly anything? [image]local://upfiles/47730/035D3970F98F49A59CA276C3BC56293C.jpg[/image]

Japs fly all 3 planes, LND as front bomber. Each plane lands same they start.

Four rounds of air-combat results in a no-score draw with all bombers cleared through and no losses. [image]local://upfiles/47730/7DE77B3B6C5B482E85C779C97693AB04.jpg[/image]

Do the Japs wish to fire their AA as well? All shots?

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 2:02:40 AM)
Yes please.

I hope you guys show photos of the eastern European front after each impulse. Thanks!

I call Assault for this attack. First unit to die from Axis is TER.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 1:34:58 PM)
The 40mm's open up. The 4 shots give lowest 1 of 5. 3, 1, 4, 3, 9. It isn't the best of barrages, causing only a few planes to scatter bombs. 6 points added to the attack and 3 to the defence. The Soviets pull an Ace from the pack. Who do the Japs wish to shatter? [image]local://upfiles/47730/53D116AB52144785BC26F78E7E4F020E.jpg[/image]

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 1:51:02 PM)
I'll guess at the AA gun as it's the most expensive. [image]local://upfiles/47730/4B50E1EDE2BE467DB073EB64F32A7719.jpg[/image]

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 1:56:05 PM)
AA gun indeed. Me not happy [:@]

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 1:59:35 PM)
Soviets rebase a Ftr from Odessa. CW rebases a CVP and the A-22 to Sousse. No reorgs Weather roll of 5. [image]local://upfiles/47730/7C3E081973BE47A5AE91DD3A7F05675B.jpg[/image]

As the Soviets I would have been tempted to move into the swamp hex in Latvia and the swamp hex west of Pskov, and Pskov. I like to have a weak cheap unit (MIL) in Minsk, just to ZOC and slow down the advance. In MWiF do the Germans get the Minsk SS unit? 1940 Barb is really tough on USSR, especially when occupied some where else...lots of fun for the Germans. I've had the pleasure to be in this situation in Russia as the Germans.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 4:48:03 PM)
In hindsight, I might have been able to hold off the DoW a bit longer if my forces were arranged differently. I've just realised that with Rumania not aligned until after the DoW, the forces along that border weren't contributing to the garrison strength. Mind you, deployed forward into southern Poland they would have easily been cut off. Deployed in the north and the south would be unprotected, apart from the option of deploying all the reserves there. I could have had the air units north, which would have helped delay for a bit longer.

Jagdtiger14 -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 7:48:59 PM)
Personally, I would not have worried about trying to hold off the German DOW under any circumstance. Getting units into their 'safe' and defensive positions is something I work on ASAP after my various gambits. The cities in the south (incl. Brest-L) are not worth the cost in units to defend...better off behind the Dnieper. However, the north is different for obvious reasons.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 8:26:08 PM)
M/J 40 Axis 7 No DoW Germany aligns Finland, on a 3 US gets mad. Once again. Finland sets up most of their troops to north in Petsamo. Italy asks Ju88 for lend lease and Germany grants it. Germany and Japan land, Italy combined. Italy sends FTR to West Med box 1 and initiates combat there. [image]local://upfiles/39586/AA95397435EB4B988AE4400CBFE4552A.jpg[/image]

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (10/31/2015 8:38:44 PM)
I expect CW won't fly their bombers as they haven't done it before. Axis 3, Allies 6. Italy chooses boxes 0 and 1. Italy uses 4 points to increase damage to 2D 3A. Italy targets CP. Who takes 2nd D? Then there are 3A left, Italy decides 2 of them. Will you stay or abort? [image]local://upfiles/39586/82F11C26B65D45C18AE86B494E0935CD.jpg[/image]

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (11/1/2015 8:50:07 AM)
D to Jeanne D-arc, plus my A choice, if still around for it. After that, it doesn't really matter. Any surviving will stay.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (11/1/2015 3:13:35 PM)
2nd round is coming [image]local://upfiles/39586/8BA807E1DA104F9C9491B3AD5CFF2053.jpg[/image]

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (11/1/2015 3:17:23 PM)
Axis 3, Allies 2. France has 2 surprise points and they can reduce Axis damage to NE. 3rd round: Axis 8, Allies 8. Where do aborted ship go? Is major port Oran OK? Edit: Land moves and combat will follow later tonight.
