The Germans invade Denmark. An infantry division occupies Copenhagen, a motorised corps rolls into Frederikshaven.

The cruiser Peder Skram is captured for the Kriegsmarine.

A Danish cp is destroyed.

The remaining cp escapes to Newcastle (Keith said any English port.)

Von Bock elects to not attack the Polish strongholds of Lodz and Warsaw in the rain. Instead, he directs his forces against the Polish cavalry defending the German port city Danzig.

The Danzigers are delighted to at last be liberated by a friendly garrison from the yoke of League of Nations free city status.

In China, the Japanese rebase Ki30 bombers north to Tsinan.

End of impulse.

We've had some problems with save game files and errors. This is working now but I'm a bit confused as to what has happened to the German reserves. I hope to see them soon. Perhaps I failed to muster them.[&:]

Fun AAR. I look forward to more!



keith63 -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (2/11/2017 12:39:49 AM)

Snow in the N. Temperate and The Med. Combines for everyone except the Chinese. Russian Troops seeing the morale of the Polish waver, storm troops across the border and occupy Eastern Poland. The US notices and is not happy.
Meanwhile across the channel, orders are rushed to Wavell to cowboy up and get his arse across the channel and help out the French!!

Bad weather continues with a roll of 7 up to an 8. Rain, rain and more rain.

AXIS IMPULSE #7 SEPT/OCT 1939

In China Terauchi crawls further south. Yamamoto lands at Haichow with the Imperial Guard and the Engineers Division. SNLF corps lands at Hangchow. Off screen, the Hiroshima Militia reinforces Canton.

professorhex -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (2/11/2017 9:06:13 AM)

Japan and Germany took a land action and Italy a combined. The Italian cruiser Gorizia joins Taranto in the Western Med.

In Poland, a German infantry division occupies Gdynia. The Polish navy, consisting of destroyers and a cp, took refuge there after the fall of Danzig last impulse. As the Germans now control Frederikshaven they cannot escape the Baltic Sea and are destroyed.

Von Rundstedt decides to press on with an attack on Lodz despite the rain. He provides HQ support and the Luftwaffe supplies Bf109E2 and Bf110C as ground support. German engineers help XLIX Mountain corps across the Vistula.

professorhex -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (2/11/2017 9:10:28 AM)

The Poles in Lodz resist bravely. A roll of 6 is just about enough to take the city and its factories but leaves many German units disorganised. The shattered Polish infantry corps cannot escape and is destroyed, but cheers ring out from the Warsaw garrison.

German forces take Lodz.

End of impulse. Turn continues on a 9.

The German reserves are still in the game, listed as "setting up" in the units in game panel. Any ideas how I can make them appear?

keith63 -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (2/11/2017 2:10:04 PM)

The Allied High Command daily thanks the bad weather raging across the battlefield in Europe, as it continues to slow down the German War Machine. British move a small fleet to the Eastern Med, based around 1 carrier and a few cruisers and BB's. The turn continues. Even more bad weather though.

It sounds to me like you have run into a bug. Any time the unit list says something like "Setting up" or "Moving", and the unit is not being set up or moving that instant, something has gone wrong.

My only suggestion is for you to post your game to this AAR thread, state where you want your reserves placed, and have one of the beta testers (me, for example) put your units where you want them.

If you still have a save from just before your first opportunity to call out the reserves, it would be nice if you ran it, see if the bug occurs again, and if it does, post the save to the Tech Support forum.

A very generous offer, thanks Courtenay. [:)]

I will do this at the start of my next impulse. If possible, later I'll post a save game on Tech Support as you suggest.

AXIS #11 SEPT/OCT 1939

Stormy weather causes the Germans to take a combined, as does Italy. Japan takes a land action.

RN cruisers find two German subs in the Faroes.



[image]local://upfiles/55941/4C4E9C88303E41ACA09E87505E067978.jpg[/image]



professorhex -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (2/11/2017 3:49:45 PM)

The Allies attack only the 3 box where the stronger sub is damaged and aborted.

Elsewhere, the Germans rail a garrison from Danzig to Frederikshaven and close in on Warsaw, but there are no attacks.

After a long wet fall, the turn finally ends. Warsaw held out thanks to the weather!!

Having enough of their Imperial Overlords, the good people of Malaya rise up against the CW with the formation of a partisan.

I tried. I downloaded your saved game, but when I tried to open it with my copy of MWiF, it crashed my game.

Can you open it using your copy?

Destroyed units Sept/Oct 1939.

Lit only by flashes of lightning, the Fuehrer stands on the balcony at the Berghof, in full oilskins like a North Sea trawlerman.

He is grinding his teeth.

OK.

I am going to ask other beta testers about your game file, because either there is something wrong with it, or something wrong with my copy of the program.



professorhex -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (2/11/2017 8:22:34 PM)

Keith and I are both grateful for your interest and attention Courtenay.

We are going to try progressing the game to see what happens.



Centuur -> RE: New AAR Keith Vs Ian (2/12/2017 10:04:59 AM)

If you can put a gamesave in here at the start of a German land movement phase, I can put those units on the map for you. I was able to restore this gamesave, but I'm not totally convinced that using the debug tools in the final production planning phase is going to do the trick correctly.

I was able to restore your gamesave.

I'm very grateful for this offer Centuur, thanks! I did wonder about whether different phases might make a difference. We're currently slogging our way through end of turn and production phases but I will do this as soon as possible. [:)]
