We are playing right now, but im getting a bit bored so im writing a IAR (In Action Report)

In the western Europe everything has been quit for a while. English troops are overseas protecting the colonies and german soldiers are getting bored watching over the channel.

In south Europe there has been some uprisings in the greece but they were stopped by the italian army. The United Kingdom has tried to support this rebellion but the greece invasion has been stopped. Mainly because the attention was shifted towards the middle east were italian and hungarian forces broke through. They reached suez and reinstated the Afrika divisions.

Meanwhile in the north and central europe Germany was preparing for the invasion of Sovjet Union. After the Finnish brothers joined the alliance Stalin demanded a withdrawel of German troops. This was replied with a simple: 'No'. And thus the invasion of SU started before planned and this caused some confusion for the German Army. However, Gerd von Rundstedt was prepared for this suprise and started head on attacking the province of Lvov. More terrain followed and Germany was on the offensive. Romania pressed in the south and Germany reached Riga.
All this progress was stopped by the Kiev-Smolensk Line which repelled all the attacks from the Axis. The sovjets were even able to attack Germany and gain some ground. However a new front in Finland stopped there offensive lust. Paratroopers and naval assault teams captured Leningrad and linked up with Mannerheim at Viipuri. The offensive is moving and Kiev is about to fall.

However at the moment the time is ticking away and soon the war will invlove more Superpowers. UK is planning to invade Iraq and move into Turkey. The USA has many divs in Afrika and might figth Italy on its homeground. The emperor of Japan has been very busy preparing an offensive, what will he do?

OK we will see in the coming hours....it is now 30 october 1941!

Zayro the Italian and Finnish commander
 
The situation around the world changed a lot...

Japan and USA have gotten involved in the war and how. The USA has invaded Italian mainland and reached till Rome. Where they were stopped by Italian forces and resistance at Cassino was fierce. Now the line has stabilised and Italians prepare for an offensive in the summer.

In the East the situation is getting more desperate by the day.


And now Germany has quit....wtf

The Soviet Perspective

In July 1941 after Germany attempted to transport units into Finland it became clear that the axis war machine was gearing up for an invasion. Stalin gave the German's a warning forced - no troops in Finland, or war! But Germany refused so the Soviets were to declare war before Hitler had a chance to transport enough units into Finland to to Leningrad. The Germans were caught slightly off guard by this new development but quickly adjusted and began an offensive into western Russia quickly routing the overwhelmed and outdated Soviet forces. contrary to flawed intelligence reports by the axis they did not destroy 55 Soviet divisions, these forces managed to retreat although it was a close call. Germany's allies attacked Soviet forces in the south, but preformed poorly and took months to secure only several provinces.

On the far south on the border with Turkey, Romanian and Italian divisions made a decisive move to capture the oil fields of Baku and possibly move all the way to Stalingrad. Luckily Stalin foresaw this and stationed over 40 divisions in the region. Unfortunately they were defeated and pushed back to Grozny, but the Romanians now face a far superior British force attacking through Iraq into Turkey. Soon the Soviet Union will recapture Baku and restore the precious oil flow.

The German paratroopers managed to surprise the Soviet garrison in Leningrad and hence took the historic city with few losses. The Russians saw that Germany and its pathetic Finnish allies had won in Leningrad and Viipuri so they withdrew to help stop the advance towards Moscow.

On the Romanian/Italian southern front 1918 Mongolian infantry divisions supported by 3 tank divisions commanded by general Rokossovsky staged a heroic suprise liberation of Kiev, defeating the bewildered Romanian garrison. 20 divisions from the southern "tblisi" front were able to join in on the battle against Romania and Italy taking back Sevastopol and surrounding provinces, and are expected to chase the Romanians back into their own country.

Winter has yet again helped the the Soviet Union, stopping the ill-equipped and overextended German tank divisions 2 provinces outside Moscow. After several failed attempts to break the Soviet line outside of Moscow it became clear that the northern Russian front had become a stalemate. over 100 modern divisions now stand between the barbarians and Moscow, and newly produced T-34 tanks would help turn the tide against Hitlers Mechanized divisions. Now the Soviet Union has begun to recapture provinces in the north and south, the German push past soviet river defenses has done nothing but leave them open for a counterattack, they cannot extend any further or they risk being cut off, encircled, and destroyed. With the American and British offences the Germans will have to divert more and more forces to the west, leaving their lines open for a massive counterattack by the brave soviet forces.

We had an excelent 9 hours-session.

UK is doing presure into turkey at the same time that with his fleet supports US operations in South Italy. The problems are in the far east, where the yelow empire has captured Singapur and a bit part of Birmania later have lots of battles with CW armies. In pakistan japan enteres with a small army force and has capured lots of provinces. Actually brithis army has sent some forces to stabilize the line and keep the most preciosus piece of the brithis empire. India must remains english!
 
A Stable Game Group

I feel we are starting to be a stabile game group, and our seriusety as men and players surely have been proven to our self and all the other players of the group, that started this game, and are still in it.

Im thinking abaout trying to make a goup of players that can play 1-2 times a week, and that have almost the same opimions on houserules, times and other issues, so that the games can be as nice and stabile as i will say this have been.

The advantages with a stabile playgroup is that we can scadule playtimes, and do not need any subs to take over a contrey after any form of drop out, or other.

I think i will post at forum, to try to create a group of players, that im starting to know a little, and hope all players in this group are interested in cuntinue our nice games in the future.
I will tray to get a few more pepole that i already know, to joyn, so it will be 1 player for evry major contrey.
I sure hope all in this game and group will joyn, and may we can agree on 1 day per week or something.
