Hm, well, Liang does have a point. Besides, Japan is apparently too weak while Spain due to Germany is more of a challenge. I change my vote to MacArthur
Thank you very much! I will land in Africa shortly. The only reason I have not yet done so is that Spain demanded my full attention.yeh Macarthur all the way great aar btw very easy to read! can wait for the pyrenees. Also maybe it is time to do something about Africa?
Patton was a member of an old military family anyways and would never have gone into politics, at least not when a war was running.
If you'll forgive some armchair generaling you should drive to the prynees and cut off the Axis troops in NE Spain. You need to destroy German divisions and cut down that army!
Also in your screens you have over 300K supplies stockpiled? Stop putting IC into supply for awhile and use the stockpile you have! Even if your boys are comsuming 3000 supplies a day, you still got a 100 days of full supply there. Put that 189 IC into reinforcements and get your divisions back to full strength. Gotta be flexible with that IC.
Very gripping and enjoyable updates, excellent as ever. Such massive gains! I'm very much looking forward to seeing how things pan out, especially with the coming election.
The Germans must be running pretty low on manpower now that I think about it
I vote for Truman if it will settle Spain and Germany once and for all. Japan is a cakewalk compared to this, Germany is paramount in importance.
I actually have reconsidered that part of the election. I realized it gives Truman an unfair advantage so instead, the election will have no direct barring on where I focus my attention. However, where it will influence is where I will strike if the European front stagnates. If It is Truman, the focus will be put on Africa. If it is MacArthur, the Pacific. I realized that MacArthur would be a fool to allow the European campaign to stagnate.
In the United States, Generals and Admirals are not suppose to back one candidate over the other openly. Any such action would lead to demands for resignations and not just from the President. Hell there's a school of thought in the officer ranks that says that officers of a certain rank shouldn't even vote. Besides, Patton doesn't want to be chief of staff, he wants an army on the front line. This is the guy who screamed "We'll use their guts to grease our tanks treads!" Not a staff puke by any stretch of the imagination.
