There isn't a huge penalty, its just that I forgot and brought troops directly from Iceland to occupied area and then battle.

I just hope that I dont have to leave like last week - at least I ll try to have that stuff done rather afternoon. Not that Italy will likely conquer the world anyways

I might have problems to be there at 19:30 CET. It's beyond me.
But I hope I'll make it in time. Anyways, I shouldn't be there later than at 20:30 CET.

So what does this mean for the game?
Do we still start at 18:30 GMT (19:30 CET)?
BTW - would it be possible to change Japans government to fascist?

I know more than I did before and I think I'll make it at 19:30 CET. For the case I won't be there, Viss is in charge to decide what to do.Isebrand said:

That means high CG demand and 16% dissent for DOW.
We'll start at 19:30 CET, if Ederon is not there I can play UK on my laptop until he gets there.
I'll try to change Japan to fascist.

I wonder how that happened. Did USA or SU coup them? Anyway, given the late stage of the game, I'm against a change.Isebrand said:

I don't mind really, if Germany can take over the dows for me. And on the pro side- for some strange reason I have nearly all Japanese ministers available. If changing government would send me back to the no-named one, that would hurt badly.
Ok, I won't do anything then. I have seen in sp games as well that Japan never goes fascist, and that they are democratic at the beginning of 39 scenario. If they get any elections they rarely chooses to go right.
Great, its like 7 minutes to game and I was just firing HOI up but some urgent stuff came up, seems I wont make it today
I forgive youMAC said:Great, its like 7 minutes to game and I was just firing HOI up but some urgent stuff came up, seems I wont make it today
Was another sweet session tonight, lots of fightin' in France/Low Countries, some in Italy, Yugoslavia and finally the pacific as well.
The french front saw some Glorious American Breakthroughs, but Patton felt sorry for Manstein and withdrew his Divine Forces to Eindhoven, where he had a better dinner.
The Great America does have some issues with able men, and have found it neccesary to use old men and in some cases, old women at the frontlines.
In Italy the 1st. American Holiday regiment (used by American soldiers as a reloading area for the real wars) have broken through to Parma in search of that ham and also an opportunity to bathe in the Adriatic.
Meanwhile, the 2nd. American Holiday Regiment have been preparing new offices in the Pacific, and also cleaning the water for some pirates and their ships. Some of the frontliners in Holland were so excited they went there right away, which was OK since America did not face any real threat in Europe. Americas only concern is teh Red Menace, showing itself in eastern Europe, pushing the Germans back.

Well, another good session, I think. Very interesting and well-played game this. Let me thank you all at this time for the excellent play and the way the game is handeled (seperate thanks to vissarion for good hosting). It is kind of uncommon to find a MP this good and civil.
This session again proved what I learned in the previous sessions, but even more so: the germans are almost untouchable in direct confrontation. The cases where I manage to do them real damage are very rare (except, perhaps in airbattles, where the Luftwaffe took some serious casualties). Example: I send 3 t-34 into Prezmysl (forested). There they are later attacked by 7 german infantry. Outnumbered like this they could not ofc. expect to win, but should enjoy some defensive bonus (ia. from digging in and terrain), but to my surprise, the fully organised t-34s are defeated by the german infantry without the infatry taking as much as 1 caualty and without losing any organisation at all!. There was no arisupport in this case so that couldn't be the question. I hope part of the explanation is AT brigades, otherwise this superiority is really scaring.
I know the SU starts at a technological disadvantage and that for a number of years the german economy is in fact larger than the SU. OTOH Germany has to invest much in warproduction and I haven't exactly neglected research.
But the 'approach of the thousand ants' still won out in the end. Andrews superior way of rushing reinforcements to threatened sectors saved a number of provinces for some time, but in the end it was impossible for him to keep playing wack-a-mole with the front extending all the way to the Adriatic in a zig-zag curve. A sideeffect of his blocking action, however, was that the allies managed to land in Yugoslavia to secure Sarajevo just after the SU had been beaten back (did the allies fight for Sarajevo at all?). This means that neither side will be able to annex Yugoslavia, but OTOH the allies cannot liberate it either.
In the east a similar, though somewhat smaller tech defiecency showed. I must admit that I hadn't fully realised that Japan was deploying something like 66% of it's army against me. I had expected it to spend more at defending against the allies, but I guess that the japanese fleet losses, which came to my attention rather late, might explain why Japan now stakes everything on a continental battle.
The largest battle was in Jinxi with something like 25 divisions on both sides. SU was clearly defeated despite defensive advantage and ia. mountaintroops. The bulk of the army retreated north, which left rather little to defend Vladivostok, which was defeated shortly after.
Japan made no advance in central Siberia despite several attempts. The SU infiltrating attack was, however, repulsed, but only after it had captured the majority of the japanese (technologically superior) airforce on the ground. This destroyed around 12 squadrons and made the emperor go absolutely nuts.
Oh yeah, and wrt who is the biggest threat, here are the facts of the score:
Allies: 477, axis: 281, Comintern: 221.
