I lost Krutov earlier and now I lose Rokossovsky. So that is my two best Russian generals KIA.

NW Europe. Not much action here except following up the retreating Axis.

AGS.

The Russians are still unable to close the deal.

JUNE 16, 1944

I played my full turn which took me about 1 1/2 hours. At the end of my turn the Western Front looked like this.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/19/2021 5:42:08 AM)

And the Eastern front looked like this.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/19/2021 5:43:29 AM)

But when I tried to end my turn I ended up looking at this screen for about 30 Minutes.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/19/2021 5:44:41 AM)

So I redid my turn. Western Front. Not much difference except I was also able to capture the hex NW of Turin. With 3 sides on Turin this gave me a good chance of capturing it next turn and finally forcing Italy to surrender.

AGC. Again not much difference.

My units in the bulge are generally not as strong as they were in my first attempt. But I didn't see too much German Armour around, so I wasn't too concerned.

JUNE 30, 1944

But I was obviously getting too cocky, because this is what awaited me when I opened my next turn. 2 Armour and a Mechanized destroyed, a paratrooper Shattered and several units isolated.

I was, at great cost able, to reestablish supply to the isolated units and even overrun 1 German Armour and shatter a Mechanized. But I suspect that on the Axis turn I will lose at least a few of my units. Regardless the Russians will need to spend at least a couple turns recovering before the offensive in the South can resume. Unfortunately, I forgot to take any screenshots after my moves.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/19/2021 6:05:02 AM)

On the Western front the Axis pulled back. They even basically handed me Turin. So I expect savage Italian counter Attacks next turn before they surrender.

In the Netherlands I managed a small breakthrough. I could have done better, but I was careless with my paradrrop. Who would have thought the Rumanian air force would be able to out fly the RAF.

With the Russians struggling, the burden is really on the Western Allies to try and penetrate as far into Germany as possible before the summer ends.

JULY 14, 1944

I was planning on resting my Russian Forces in the South, but the Axis had other plans. With the Axis once again isolating several units I had no choice but to attack to rescue them. It helped that with the Italian surrender the Italian units shown here disappeared.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/19/2021 5:28:51 PM)

Final positions in the South. I was surprised that the Italian hexes reverted to British control, i thought they now went to Germany. Maybe because we started under a different version. In any event, I think the Axis will have supply problems here.

In the West, the heroic stand of the British II Corps prevented my Armour from being isolated.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/19/2021 5:35:03 PM)

The Germans recalled all of their Norwegian garrisons home to defend the Fatherland, so last turn I invaded with a division.

The Low Countries after moves.

I almost destroyed another panzer, but it retreated rather than being overrun.

The Siegfried Line and Italy.

Had I noticed that Trieste was open before I accepted Italy's surrender (or had Italian hexes reverted to German rather than British control) I could have invaded and captured it. That would have caused the Germans quite a few problems I think.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/19/2021 5:46:49 PM)

The Axis left Tirane open last turn so I invaded with a division and this turn reinforced. Supply will be terrible, but it should force the Germans to deploy some units here or else let me walk into the Balkans.

JULY 28, 1944

The Axis reoccupied Oslo, so I reinforce my Norwegian forces. Could perhaps put them to better use elsewhere, but on the continent they would only be in basic supply.

The Western Allies advance out of the Netherlands into the Ruhr.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/20/2021 2:15:00 AM)

Venice will have to wait until I have more forces to batter it down. Again Trieste is open, but again I can't invade due to the beaches being British. A bit of an anomaly I think that enemy beaches can be invaded but friendly ones can't.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/20/2021 2:16:03 AM)

I advance out of Albania and capture the port further North.

Harrybanana -> RE: The Last Two Years (No Stjeand for now) (9/20/2021 2:18:32 AM)

In Russia, I have a choice of either advancing NW to try and cut off the Axis forces, or South into Rumania. I choose the latter as it is safer and doesn't require any attacks by my exhausted units, other than capturing Odessa.
