GAME CHANGER?

HITLER BANKS OF THE RETURN OF HIS PANZERS FROM TURKEY TO TURN THE TIDE ON ARMY GROUP CENTRE

- OR AT LEAST GRIND STALIN'S PLAN TO THROW THE GERMANS OUT OF THE USSR.

BUT CAN THEY GET THERE IN TIME?

13 FEBRUARY 1944 - MONTY'S GAMBIT IN THE BALKANS

GENERAL MONTGOMERY [THESSALONIKA] TURNS SOUTH HOPING TO ENVELOP ROMMEL'S PANZERS AND PIN THEM ON THE COAST.

101ST AB & BRITISH COMMANDOES CUT THE GERMAN SUPPLY LINES

HOWEVER SUBSTANTIAL PANZER FORMATIONS ARE STILL IN THEATRE

WILL HITLER ORDER THEM TO RELIEVE GENERAL ROMMELS' PREDICAMENT OR ORDER THEM TO MOVE NORTH WITH ALL URGENCY TO STEM THE SOVIET TIDE ON THE EASTERN FRONT?

20 FEBRUARY 1944 - BREAKTHROUGH IN NORTHERN ITALY AS GENERAL BRIAN HORROCKS BRITISH ARMY OF THE PO MAKES A DEEP CUT IN THE GERMAN LINES AND HEADS FOR VENICE...

US PARAS FROM THE 82ND ARE DROPPED TO SECURE PASSAGE FOR THE BRITISH TANKS & THEIR PARAS IN TURN SEIZE THE BRIDGE ACROSS THE PO ON THE BOLOGNA - VENICE HIGHWAY.

BUT WILL IT PROVE TO BE A BRIDGE TOO FAR?

24 MARCH 1944 - MIRACLE ON THE DVINA AS HITLER ORDERS DAUGAVPILS TO BE HELD AT ALL COSTS!

THE LINE BEGINS TO STABILISE AGAIN AS THE SOVIETS OUTRUN THEIR SUPPLY RADIUS...

FURTHER SOUTH - SEBASTAPOL HAS FINALLY FALLEN AFTER WEEKS OF HEROIC DEFENSE.

1 MAY 1944 - ITALY & THE BALKANS

TITO'S PARTISANS NOW CONTROL LARGE SWATHES OF YUGOSLAVIA BUT CANNOT LAND KILLER BLOWS TO DRIVE THE FASCISTS OUT OF THE MOTHERLAND WITHOUT MORE ALLIED HELP

IN ITALY THE ALLIED ARMIES ARE ADVANCING NORTH TO MAKE CONTACT WITH THE GERMANS AND RENEW THEIR ASSAULTS.

FURTHER NORTH THEY HAVE STOPPED THE ALLIED BREAKTROUGH TO THE ADRIATIC BUT THE WHOLE SITUATION HANGS BY A THREAD AS THE CANDIAN ARMY HAS BEEN DEPLOYED WITH ORDERS TO STRIKE SOUTH ALONG THE WESTERN COAST AND LINK UP WITH THE US ARMY IF IT CAN.

Sarsfield_slith -> RE: Europe Aflame Solo Run (9/11/2021 3:20:57 PM)

1 MAY 1944 ARMY GROUP NORTH & CENTRE

THE GERMANS HAVE NOW MANAGED TO STABILISE THEIR FRONTS WITH PANZER FORMATIONS ARRIVING BACK IN EUROPE AFTER THE LONG TREK ACROSS TURKEY AND THROUGH THE BALKANS - NO R&R TO BE HAD THOUGH AS THEY ARE SENT TO THE EASTERN FRONT STRAIGHT AWAY!

HOWEVER THE SOVIETS ARE MASSING AT THE GATES OF MINSK SO THINGS COULD RAPIDLY....

[image]local://upfiles/59340/E09C6551CE984D358E32755D8245C517.jpg[/image]

THE CRIMEA HAS NOW BEEN FULLY LIBERATED!

SOVIET RE INFORCEMENTS ARE NOW DETRAINING AT KHERSON TO LAUNCH ALL OUT ATTACKS TO THE NORTH OF ODESSA AND ACROSS THE DNENSTIR RIVER...

SOUTH OF ROSTOV STALIN HAS HUGE RESERVES WAITING TO BE COMMITTED - BUT WHERE?




Sarsfield_slith -> RE: Europe Aflame Solo Run (9/16/2021 11:40:57 AM)

1 MAY 1944 - BALKAN FRONT

MONTY'S MUCH TRUMPETED BALKAN OFFENSIVE GRINDS TO A HALT AS THE GERMANS ARE DETERMINED NOT TO ALLOW THE RAIL LINK TO ISTAMBOUL TO BE CUT

STRONG INFANTRY FORMATIONS HAVE BEEN LEFT TO GUARD THE STRAITS OF THE BOSPHORUS AND AVOID THE RUSSIANS AND THE ALLIES FROM JOINING FORCES

MONTY REQUESTS MORE REINFORCEMENTS!

NORTH ITALY 1 MAY 1944

THE ALLIES ACHIEVE A DECISIVE BREAKTHROUGH AND CUT OFF ALL GERMAN FORCES TO THE SOUTH OF THE PO RIVER!

ARMY GROUP ITALY HAS TWO CHOICES

- STAND AND FIGHT AND HOPE FOR RELIEF

- OR CUT AND RUN AND HOPE TO ESTABLISH A LINE OF RESISTANCE ON THE PO THAT CAN STEM THE ALLIES.

EITHER WAY THE CHANCES OF SUCCESS ARE SLIM INDEED.

Sarsfield_slith -> RE: Europe Aflame Solo Run (10/2/2021 7:48:29 PM)

15 MAY 1944 NORTH ITALY

THE FRENCH ARMY OF ITALY ACHIEVES A BREAKTHROUGH BUT IS THEN CUT OFF AND ISOLATED

FURTHER SOUTH THE GERMANS HOLD THEIR POSITIONS BUT ARE RAPIDLY RUNNING OUT OF SUPPLIES.

ITS THOUCH AND GO WHETHER THE WEHRMACHT WILL PULL OFF A BRILLIANT VICTORY OR INSTEAD WILL SEE A CATASTROPHIC COLLAPSE OF ARMY GROUP ITALY & ITS MEMBERS INTO THE ALLIED POW CAGES!

TO THE EAST MINSK HAS FALLEN TO THE SOVIETS.

Sarsfield_slith -> RE: Europe Aflame Solo Run (11/26/2021 7:26:18 PM)

OK TIME FOR AN UPDATE - ITS NOW 5 JUNE 1944 AND THE ALLIES ARE PRESSING HARD ON THE THIRD REICH BUT HITLER STILL HAS A FEW CARDS UP HIS SLEEVE!



THE FRANCO - AMERICAN ARMIES PUSH SLOWLY INTO THE REICH AND HAVE REACHED THE RHINE.

MAIN OBJECTIVE IS MAINZ BUT THE WEHRMACHT IS PUTTING UP A TOUGH FIGHT SO THIS LOOKS LIKE A SLUGFEST FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE....

SOUTHERN FRONT ITALY 5 JUNE 1944

[image]local://upfiles/59340/82EB2115CCEE42FA8F0CA0984E0E22E6.jpg[/image]

BRILLIANT STAFF WORK BY OKH AND SOME HARD FIGHTING HAVE ALLOWED THE GERMAN FORCES TO WITHDRAW IN REASONABLY GOOD ORDER.

THE PLAN NOW IS TO STABILISE A NEW LINE ON THE TRENTO - VENEZIA AXIS AND HOLD THE ALLIES THERE.

YUGO PARTISANS ARE A NUISANCE BUT NOT A THREAT.





Sarsfield_slith -> RE: Europe Aflame Solo Run (11/28/2021 6:21:16 PM)

BALKAN FRONT

STRONG AND POWERFUL AXIS FORCES GUARD THE 'BACK DOOR' INTO SOUTHERN EUROPE AND KEEP TURKEY, RUMANIA AND BULGARIA IN THE FIGHT.

BOTH SIDES ARE EVENLY MATCHED BUT WHILE THE GERMANS ARE SATISFIED IF NOT ENTIRELY RELAXED ABOUT THE STATE OF PLAY GENERAL MONTGOMERY IS TOTALLY FRUSTRATED AS HIS PART IN THE WAR IS REDUCED TO THE STATUS OF A SIDESHOW....

5 JUNE 1944 - SOUTH BALKAN FRONT

THIS MAP SHOWS THE SITUATION SOMEWHAT BETTER!

THE GERMAN FORCES IN TURKEY ARE NOW DIGGING TRENCHES ON THE ASIATIC SIDE OF THE BOSPHORUS TO BLOCK THE INEVITABLE SOVIET ADVANCE THAT IS COMING....

THE RUSSIANS HAVE ATTEMPTED A BREAKTHROUGH ALONG THE VILNA - KOVNO AXIS BUT THEY ARE NOW CUT OFF.

THE ASIS ARE THOUGH NOW VERY STRECHED HERE AND IT IS REALLY TOUCH AND GO IF THEY CAN HOLD THE LINE AT ALL.

THEY HAVE SRONG FORCES FURTHER SOUTH IN FRONT OF BREST LITOVSK THAT SHOULD STOP ANY SOVIET ATTACKS IN THAT DIRECTION.




Sarsfield_slith -> RE: Europe Aflame Solo Run (12/22/2021 5:53:01 PM)

5 JUNE 1944 - ARMY GROUP NORTH

THINGS HOLDING UP RELATIVELY WELL FOR THE AXIS HERE BUT SOME WORRY THAT THE NORTHERN PART OF THE FRONT COULD EVENTUALLY BE CUT OFF.

SOVIETS ARE GATHERING HUGE FORCES FOR AN ATTEMPED BREAKTROUGH INTO RUMANIA AND SEIZING THOSE VITAL OIL FIELDS....
