RN inflicted further attrition in the E Med, sinking the Italian cp and damaging a cruiser and a battleship.

AXIS #6 MAY/JUN 41

Japanese naval move, Germany and Italy land. Pretty quiet.

Romanian Cavalry and a German Infantry Corps occupied the Yugoslav ports. The CA Dalmacija made it to Malta, but the cp was intercepted on a 2, and destroyed by Littorio. She is making a habit of sinking Allied cps but perhaps over-gunned for this mission.

The Axis are less than impressed with a weather roll 1. Summer storms. A break to your English cricket season.

After a very quiet Allied #7 impulse, the turn ends on a 1. A brutally short May/June from the Axis point of view.

Destroyed units May/June 1941. Yugoslavia is conquered. Where can I find cp losses? The Italians lost 2 or 3.

Unfortunately, you can't. Nor pilots, either.

We have not even kept to the oft-criticised Hitlerian timetable. Yet it must happen.

The Hungarian woman is wailing over distended entrails. Over the Berghof balcony the sky turns a frightening gamboge and purple. The Fuhrer takes an early night, and was not at all interested in his boiled vegetable dinner or Disney animation, etc etc.

The short May/June has left the lines well apart, especially in the south. Historians will note the unusually short weather, and Balkan delays.

The southern flank. The resources. Barely a speed bump. Summer uniforms.

AXIS #1 JUL/AUG 41

Germany aligns Finland. Wise to this ploy, the Soviets have garrisoned Leningrad, but not Murmansk, which the Finns soon occupy.

The Eastern Front on the eve of the grand German offensive. The Germans will need to move into position and conserve their main strength, mindful of the need for air cover next impulse.

Italy naval, Germany and Japan land.

Sub searches fail in N Atlantic (5, 10) and CSV (5, 7). But an Italian sub finds in Biscay (3, 9).

1 CW cp is destroyed and 3 cps aborted to Plymouth in the Bay of Biscay. Half abort for the sub. Subsequent searches fail.

professorhex -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (3/27/2017 9:47:00 PM)

The Italians have loaded E Med with air power. 3, 5 find.

Italian fighters again underperform, despite +1 air to air from surprise; but the 3 bombers get through and sink both Allied cps.

Malta is now out of supply. Scrambled Allied bombers abort back there after a single combat round.

Sometimes I will roll well.

But it doesn't all go to plan. Another important stack on the Dneister is missed completely.

Yamamoto launches a blitz NW of Tungkwan. Occupation of the vacated city does not annoy USA (roll 8).

Later the inland Admiral has to reorganise 4 land units.

AXIS #3 JUL/AUG 41

The Soviets spent an O-Chit to reorganise Zhukov and Timoshenko's HQs, hit by ground strikes on the surprise impulse.

Germany counters by spending its second O-Chit on a super-combined operation. I want the Luftwaffe to keep up with the Army in the East. Always good to have a shot at Allied convoys. Abwehr believes the Axis' obsessive pursuit of Allied cps with submarines and air power is having a psychological impact on our opponent.

Italy also takes a combined move, Japan land.

The main German fleet takes to the Baltic Sea, accompanied by the Marine Corps. The currently seaworthy Italian battleships patrol the Italian Coast.

First sub search is North Atlantic, which fails (5, 7). But there is action in Biscay when an RAF Albacore finds a searching wolf pack (2, 3).

Second round in Biscay (1, 6). The subs find, but take ASW hits.

U boats in Biscay sink 2 CW cps and abort another to Plymouth.

No 3rd round (5, 9).

Sheffield is bombed by the Luftwaffe. In China, a Ki-32 raid on Kweiyang fails to inflict any damage (roll 1).

Allied standing orders: assaults where possible, no planes, no HQ support.

Communist partisans near Lake Kaoyu were eliminated.
