Status: offline 		A different AAR this one - I'll play as every nation that's at war or close to it. The rest I leave to AI.

I'll use my own mod - Storm, It's feature's are here: http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3018669#

During playtesting for the mod I was playing like this and I had so much fun and epic battles. Of course, I'll play every nation having its best interest in mind, using fog of war and trying not to cheat myself

My tactics of each nation will be a combination of historical decisions, ongoing current situation and propositions from any of you guys (if historically plausible of course). I already played a few turns. But first, here's a look at Great Britain. Notice the fort 1 levels at it's beaches. I now know easily where the beach hexes are

Status: offline 		The losses report after 2 turns - I made some changes here in my mod: first, check out the air losses, 20 times greater than vanilla, now it is very much true to historical outcomes. Also overall losses are now the exact sum of all combat report losses in every fight. I reckon guys in Wasteland only put in half the number for wounded or out of action for a turn or something, but I find this version more realistic. Losses represents killed, wounded, missing, captured. German casualties are a little too high compared to history but I haven't used Luftwaffe to its full potential (in Storm air is more deadly against low level units)

Status: offline 		Half the september has passed and some panzer units can see Warsaw in the distance. For 2 weeks now Warsaw has been bombarded. The only polish mobile units tried a desperate counter attack on Lodz but of course they failed. All reserve units have been called to defend the capital...

Please remember that AI is not motivated by price when purchasing units, but by the settings in the AI_data file
