Judging from some of the recent comments, If you have not seen "Allies at War" I highly recommend you do. I thought it a fascinating look behind the scenes. No leader shines that brightly, in the eyes of the others or in posterity.
The sound you can hear *door slams* is me running out to buy a lottery ticket! 
The single-event that I have always wondered about, was that small group of German-officers that made a risky clandestine effort to contact the Brit-government (pre-Poland) to have the madman removed. However, just like Stalin's response to Allied-intel pre-Barbarossa, or his own Generals for that matter...the Brits thought these men were a set-up or a trap. iirc The later English politician Heath asks Peter Ustinov about these guys meeting his father one night, during the "An Evening with Peter Ustinov." The show is on utube and well worth the watch for the man's brilliant-comedy, even without that interesting bit.
Well Paris was liberated in August 1944 historically, so the Axis have done an incredible job dragging things out until November. Jurech still has much to be proud of.
Slovakia provides endless opportunities to scream in rage, frustration or disappointment, occasionally all three if the Slovak cabinet is involved, so they are world class yellers.
2.Pezi is only facing A.34 Comets, not the new S.H.I.Ts. In it's wisdom the British AI has deployed all it's super heavy armour to mucking around the South of France instead of doing something useful.
In the field of fabricated units and fictional titles the AI is truly worldclass.A baffling development. If I were to ever weave another fabrication, creating division-names like 1st Elite Medium Tanks would be important for Militia and H-ARM garrisons a must. And here I thought my MAR-GAR (codename Rag-Ram) was groundbreaking.
There you go being reasonable again. (I'll rather thank the Providence which preserved them both throughout the war and beyond.
)I'm fairly sure any winnings from the Slovak lottery would be paid out in coins, there is plenty of metal after all.Well, a battle that might possibly end in a Slovak-German victory and factually correct battle details on the Eastern Front!?
Mind you, it is a 1944 Slovak National Lottery ticket, so winning is worse than losing, because you just wind up with a bunch of useless paper (ie piles of Slovak koruna banknotes) unsuitable even for use as toilet paper and that must be disposed of 350 years before recycling tech is likely to be developed!
I also understand the Slovak state never actually got round to re-printing all it's banknotes and even at the end was still using some old Czechoslovak banknotes with red "Slovakia" stamps on.It is an interesting question, would any of the replacements to Hitler have been "worse"? Would a more competent leader have made the war last longer by making less terrible decisions, or would they have admitted the truth that Germany had lost without waiting for Soviet tanks in Berlin?
The Battle of France is a battle between two inept AIs, each struggling to see who can miss the biggest opportunities and through away the largest advantage. At present Germany is accidentally winning, doubtless down to the heroic Slovaks providing a lynchpin in Paris.
There you go being reasonable again. (
Well, it's hard to dislike Churchill. You want unreasonable Af, get me started on Farage or Johnson!
. If Churchill sometimes had his own view on reality, these two are in a world of their own all the time.
Brilliant!
Btw, the mix of those ART units is very Cajun-like. They may not have been used to solid ground.
Top work finding a rhyme for rubble, who could have expected an appearance from Michael Buble in a Slovakian AAR?
I imagine Jurech will edit his message back to Bratislava, though even a simple "We won" message would probably baffle much of the Slovak High Command. I must also correct you, Slovakia can definitely pile up rocks so has the technology to understand and create rubble, thus the Pile de Rubble must remain in Paris as a reminder to future French leaders not to get over excited and order triumphant arches (or anything else).
Slovakia has also defended Paris infinitely more times than the French managed to defend Paris in WW2, so this is a mighty achievement.Slovak forces successfully repelling an attack on Paris! This is, like, infinitely times more than the real First Slovak State did during the WW2...
Btw, if RAF got involved, that would mean the Czechoslovak pilots would be attacking Slovak troops on the ground.
And also, have we already discussed that the flag of Slovakia is wrong? If something, the flag should be like this
The Mexicans are probably still a bit unclear as to why they are fighting to liberate France when the French themselves aren't, so I am prepared to cut them quite a lot of slack with regards to artillery accuracy.Brilliant!
That would be the most Slovakian of all events, Jurech returning in triumph with the war booty of the Eiffel Tower scrap metal. Metal being the only thing Slovakia is not short of. There is plenty of time for the rest of Paris to feel the consequences of Cajun-like artillery.
There are many pluses to the Eiffel Tower having a tragic accident.
For the Allies France is the sideshow, the Yugoslavian front is where the war will be won.
Any Slovak triumphant arch would end up much like the Arc de Triumph itself - much delayed and only completed long after the original leader who ordered it is long dead.
It is vitally important to make an appropriate amount of fun of the French at all times.Ah, yes, no AAR is complete without making an appropriate amount of fun of the French!
If this keeps up, our old friends T&T may find themselves in a competition for the title of most beloved character duo in this little corner of AARland!
