Sep/Oct 1940, Axis Impulse #4 Italian battle does not go too horribly bad. There's enough cheap cannon fodder to absorb the losses, and the path across the southern France is now open. [image]https://i.ibb.co/6Wjv0G3/0427H.png[/image]

Sep/Oct 1940, Axis Impulse #4 The gamble in Belgium pays off fully for Germans. It's not a breakthrough, but the French lines do crumble. All three remaining German HQ flip to recover two bombers, two fighter-bombers, and two artillery units. [image]https://i.ibb.co/Jr3vBw8/0427J.png[/image]

Sep/Oct 1940, Allied Impulse #5 Two former Danish cruisers and a couple of WW1-era cruiser hulks, snuck into Baltic via a Commonwealth-held harbor, finally pay off for themselves. [image]https://i.ibb.co/0XCXnwg/0427L.png[/image]

Sep/Oct 1940, Allied Impulse #5 Commonwealth bombs Cologne - German AA rolls the perfect trio of 1, 1, and a 1. I guess that someone's going to a latrine detail before long. [image]https://i.ibb.co/vmCSvbm/0427M.png[/image]

Sep/Oct 1940, Allied Impulse #5 Peking Militia sneaks into an under-garrisoned Chinese city - any chance to grab a US entry chit is a good opportunity. Hit and run boys, hit and run. [image]https://i.ibb.co/5vtmY9L/0427N.png[/image]

Interlude, Belgian front. Allies fall back a bit, straightening the battle lines. [image]https://i.ibb.co/N3X3PmJ/0427O.png[/image]

Interlude, Alps front. French are starting to stabilize the area, but frankly that may all be too little too late. [image]https://i.ibb.co/4scPtBS/0427P.png[/image]

Sep/Oct 1940, Axis Impulse #6 Three battles - Germans in Belgium, Italians in the Alps, and Japanese somewhere by Shanghai. Commonwealth bombs Cologne - German AA rolls the perfect trio of 1, 1, and a 1. I guess that someone's going to a latrine detail before long. [image]https://i.ibb.co/7YXBgwX/0427Q.png[/image]

Sep/Oct 1940, Axis Impulse #6 As always, WiF remains an instance of best plans lain in error and/or due to horrible dice rolls; French forces in Belgium are merely pushed back, a French division rushing to cut off Italian advance gets chopped to pieces, and Peking Militia, oh so bravely charging to retake a Japanese-held city dies without as much as US noticing - at all.

Sep/Oct 1940, Allies Impulse #7 Buying for time, Allies go all-pass - and it works, forcing the turn towards winter. [image]https://i.ibb.co/yQQvKZ3/0427S.png[/image]

Sep/Oct 1940, Production: Germany - 11BP: LND2, FTR3, pilot, submarine (2nd phase), and an infantry. Italy - 2BP: submarine (2nd phase) and submarine repair. Japan - 12BP: infantry, infantry division, field artillery, carrier air, and CV Shokaku construction. China - 7BP: Communist militia, Communist garrison, and Nationalist AT. Commonwealth - 16BP: 4 convoys, a territorial, Amphibious, FTR2, LND3, and a pilot. France - 6BP: 2 territorials and a FTR2. United States - 11BP: BB Indiana and Massachusetts (2nd phase), 3 carrier air. USSR - 15BP: 2xFTR2, 2xpilot, armor, submarine (2nd phase). Essentially, Axis are struggling to acquire build points, all the while Allies already may have too much?

Interlude, Commonwealth is flooded with excess oil all over: [image]https://i.ibb.co/kBy8DcP/0429A.png[/image]

Interlude, Victory check. Allies, and especially Commonwealth are still a clear winner: [image]https://i.ibb.co/7p0ZRWd/0429B.png[/image]

Nov/Dec 1940, Setup: French did lose their entire air force the month ago, but there are enough reserves to pick up the slack, fortunately. [image]https://i.ibb.co/NNtJFWm/0429D.png[/image]

Nov/Dec 1940, Allied Impulse #1 Three older CAs sneak into the Baltic Sea. There aren't any German CPs there, but what is they will be there someday? [image]https://i.ibb.co/b2mdsSB/0429E.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 12:29:26 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, Allied Impulse #1 Soviet heavy bombers strike Rumanian Cavalry at the rightmost flank of Axis by Black Sea, hoping for a way to sneak onto Rumanian mainland. 1 in 5 chance due to weather - no luck. [image]https://i.ibb.co/Vw6zjKP/0430A.png[/image]

Nov/Dec 1940, Allied Impulse #1 Communist forces in North China are multiplying from turn to turn, starting to push back IJA forces. [image]https://i.ibb.co/mTHBVMQ/0430B.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 12:50:44 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, Axis Impulse #4 Italian troops quietly continue to advance on all fronts. The last French MTN unit in the Alps is disorganized and isolated; an attack, even in snow, will be predictably successful. P.S. Edit - no, that's not the case; somehow, even an isolated unit boasted 9 defense. [image]https://i.ibb.co/qyQLX63/0430C.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 1:05:47 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, Axis Impulse #4 A single combat in France, as snow is a powerful deterrent anywhere else. Still, this was a chance to break through the French lines - somehow a single MIL unit ended up on the frontlines, and Axis go for it, although paying a heavy price in exchange. [image]https://i.ibb.co/1mZXSdk/0430D.png[/image]

Nov/Dec 1940, Axis Impulse #4 French may have to consider abandoning Maginot line defenses, or face likelihood that several of their units may be stranded. [image]https://i.ibb.co/0B91dzX/0430E.png[/image]

Nov/Dec 1940, Allied Impulse #7 Quintuple bypass (and not one involving heart surgery) is quickly becoming a favorite Allied strategy to buy time. P.S. No luck. [image]https://i.ibb.co/4TY5Ksb/0430F.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 1:30:49 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, Axis Impulse #10 Two very cautious attacks - it's blizzard all over, after all - Germans clip a stray French INF division along Maginot Line, and Japanese capture Communist partisans. [image]https://i.ibb.co/H78j5Hm/0430G.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 1:33:21 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, Axis Impulse #10 Italians are quite serious about never losing Rumanian oil again. [image]https://i.ibb.co/r7CV1DL/0430H.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 1:37:21 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, End of Turn: Another quintuple bypass - and Italians land a partisan unit in India. They have one in Saigon as well. [image]https://i.ibb.co/6Rt2fF9/0430J.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 1:41:34 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, End of Turn: Slow and steady growth of American discontent with what's happening in the world. [image]https://i.ibb.co/89xMJ2G/0430K.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 2:45:57 AM)
Nov/Dec 1940, End of Turn: Germany - 15BP: Two x motorized (trying to recover the 8-strong unit), two x submarines (2nd phase), LND3 / pilot combo. Italy - 5BP: A territorial, a submarine repair, and BB Lepanto (1st phase). Japan - 16BP: Two x infantry, two x carrier air, a pilot, repair CA Takao and CA Atago, a submarine (2nd phase), and a MTN division. China - 7BP: A Communist garrison, a Communist field artillery, and a Nationalist submarine (first phase) - that will definitely be fun. Commonwealth - 15BP: Two x territorial, seven x convoys, FTR2 / pilot combo. France - 9BP: Three x territorial and an anti-tank. USA - 11BP: 2nd phase construction of BB North Dakota and CV Hornet, 3 x carrier air, a cruiser (1st phase). USSR - 15BP: Field artillery, LND3 / pilot combo, a mountain corps and a cavalry corps.

Jan/Feb 1941, Setup: Italian Navy is up to 6 submarines ready for action. German Navy has 7. [image]https://i.ibb.co/c8RHQVZ/0501A.png[/image]

Jan/Feb 1941, Setup: Nat China prepares a nasty surprise for Japanese troops (mainly air force and a garrison) in Canton. [image]https://i.ibb.co/KFHrS7V/0501B.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 10:54:47 PM)
Jan/Feb 1941, Allied Impulse #1: Soviet and Commonwealth bombers take off for strategic bomber runs despite snow weather. Allies are banking once again on an active first impulse and quieter following ones. In Germany, right off the bat, LND3 Hampden is shattered into pieces with no survivors. The other two bombers turn around. [image]https://i.ibb.co/D58tvk9/0501C.png[/image]

Rysyonok -> RE: Until 1948: The war that never ends (A solo AAR) (5/1/2021 10:59:18 PM)
Jan/Feb 1941, Allied Impulse #1: In Rumania, despite an Italian FTR on standby (didn't fly) or German AA (didn't fire), for the second turn in a row Soviet troops wipe out Rumanian oil production - all 3 units. Axis may have to consider enforcing the peace in the area... [image]https://i.ibb.co/nD1KQF8/0501D.png[/image]
