Chapter IV: To Moscow Comrades, and Further!
What the heck? I´ve lost 6 unity and gained 0,25 war exhaustion just because I´m at war? Nonsense! I´ll modify this later on.
Germans seem to have no supplies, so I just roll over them. That´s good enough, at least until I don´t have supply troubles on my own.
I guess I couldn´t handle such a big army on my own, so I handed over both of my theatres to the AI. It works quite fine, but sometimes I needed to take direct control to help cut off units on my own.
The more IC, the more better! Yippee!
Nothing much had happened eight days into the war. I´ve only captured border towns (Kuybyshev and Astrakhan). It´s still a pretty fast advance for the Red Army though.
Meanwhile the advance in Manchukuo was swift and there weren´t any supply issues thus far.
After one month, the AI did a fairly good job advancing towards Caucasus and Moscow.
Manchukuo was halfway conquered and it was expected to bring it on its knees soon.
Stalingrad was never really taken over before by the Axis before, so the first battle (and hopefully last) of Stalingrad was won by Soviets.
Since I feel the frontlines are somewhat empty (let alone AI still complains about the lack of troops) I train some regular infantry divisions, but this time on minimal training. Recruiting INF divisions in less than a month is quite impressive and cool for my intentions
That´s what you call an AI OOB mess. Just note the border changes
I´ve created one more theatre to handle uprisings. Soon enough I´ll have at least five of them in total. The front is still advancing, although this Russian “molnienosnija vajna” has been a thing of the past.
Lend-Lease? Now? What the...?
Thanks Uncle Joe!
First victory condition is fulfilled! Axis started at 8 (they only needed to defeat UK and two more; I think Comintern has the simplest VCs of all factions – take Europe and you´re done, plus maybe take Harbin), but now they have 6 and I have 1. Red Army will bring them to 0!
Get out of the barracks already, damn you!
And as you can see the map now, this is where the advance just dies. Yeah, you guessed it: supplies!
On the other hand, we´re close to capture last VPs of Manchukuo and retake our lands in eastern Asia!
Some advance was made towards Romania, but OOS bonuses are killing me. I´ll be forced to fall back and reinforce my army. Moscow is taken, but Berlin has to wait.
Thanks for reading!
