Notes :
- This AAR is based upon DiDay's Unique Units mod 1.3.2
- This is my first AAR and I have started to take map screenshot after 1940.
- This AAR is AI only, I played as Costa Rica with AI handling all the aspect of the nation except Diplomacy (didn't want to join a faction). No interaction from me. Only AI.
- The game was not loaded or anything, this is a full '36-'48 with no breaks (only the election one, jan '40 and jan '44).
- I was not in front of my computer so I only have taken some screenshot at some dates.
- Forgive my poor english ^^

Let's start.

January '40

Switzerland has foolishly join the allies and was steamrolled by german troops. This opens a giant hole in the French defense line and leads to the french defeats. The Finish winter war has started from few weeks and the soviet Union seems to win.


August '40 :

Germany controls West Europe and Scandinavia. Finland is under Soviet control.

May '41 :

All is quiet in Europe. Asian theatre is done since Japan was kicked out by both China.

January '42 :

Barbarossa is launched. Germany make several breakthrought in Western Russia but not as efficient as History did for them. They still manage to liberate the north of Finland.

June '42 :

The Eastern Front is quiet, everyone is trenched. Finland is in a bad position and Hungary and Romania seems to be steamrolled by Soviet troops.

June '43 :

Finland as been entirely liberated by SU and that have ended the skandinavian war (since the liberation was a Finish winter war event and then SU and Finland are in peace now). A lot of SU troops can now go on the south help the western russian front. Red Army have pacified Romania and Hungary and were stopped by Bulgo-Italian front.
The East German front is bad, Soviet Union is eating the positions one by one.

February '44 :


March 44 (no picture) :
the allies landing, after taking all the west France (Spain to Cherbourg) has failed. But the rest of the Belgium army, standing in Liège have taken 3 provinces around and stand hard. With this second front (landing + belgium), the German army has loss a lot of troops in West Russia and several encirclements are on the way.

April '44 :

Easter front holds but the Werhmacht retreats provinces by provinces. Soviet encirclements have destroy big armies.

We can see Portugal is advancing in Netherland indies and Japan tries to land in Korea.

Eastern Front in May '44 :


Wester Front in '44 :



August '44 :

Come back to WWI. No big advancements.
Germany is lacking manpower, almost all the divisions are 3/5 full of men.
Soviet Union is almost 100% of all its troops.

January '45 :

The Balkan front is moving with an Italio-Romano-Hungarian breakthrougt on the plains of Hungary.
All is quiet in the western front.

We can see since the beggining that the Belgium army at Liège is doing great defense, they stuck here one or two german armies and this is bad for the Eastern front.

The axis is in a bad position. Bulgaria, Romania, Yugoslavia and Albany are under the red flag now. The German position holds in the north but for how long ?
