Roar of the British Lion. Muted in tears. A miniAAR of abject failure.

[Alfred Packer]

Shame about the fleets...great AAR though, hilarious and man! That AI is brutal!

We swing into Operation Overlord, spearheaded by the Liberian Revolutionary Guards!!! Lets bring Revolution back to France, with Liberty, with Liberia!

I attempt to encircle some Germans. Do you think I succeeded? Hell no, bloody massive mountain range in the way. But hey, I am pushing them back.

Um confused, but er, OK, whatever.

Should be enough for the job, how hard can it be to invade German-held France? Besides, most of the troops are either highly trained or expeditionary forces from Belgium and France (and a few American infantry). No sweat.

I have decided to call the Polish thingy 'Operation Market Garden'. Whaccha think?

Looks like the Germans are having some real big manpower problems.

Good-O.

Stage 2 of Operation Overlord. This attack failed, but the Germans reinforced Rennes leaving Brest free. The attack was then redirected.

TO PARIS!!!!

Oh and a look at my transports. Oooooooooooooh. I captured one from the Germans at Brest. Aaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Its a looooong way to Tipperareeeeeeeeeeeee! Its a long waaaaay to go. Its even shorter to Beeeeerlin, I'm taking the shortest rooooooute I knoooooooow!

Hello again Italy. Say is that the Kriegsmarine in port. Muhahahahaha.

...

As it happens there was a brief naval battle, nothing was sunk and the blasted KM escaped.

I love Switzerland. what a lovely little wall.

Blasted Italians! Fine, we'll soon sort THAT out! To Barcelona!

As to where the KM went....

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH

There goes all my transporters. And 9 South African Divisions enroute to Genoa. The German Navy is really starting to pi$$ me off.

*sigh* well least I am at the walls of Paris.

edit: Oh and the Allies are around 20 VP ahead of the Comintern who are 1 point ahead of the Axis.

I'M WINNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GeneralHannibal]

French expeditionary forces saved my arse.

Now, now, lets not get ahead of ourselves.

Edit: Oh and I have just noticed something very nice in the last screenshot. I hadn't even noticed.

My red cookie to the first person to say what it is.

[Alfred Packer]

Is it the undying support of the Liberian Hordes around Orleans?

Italy is left almost undefended?..

 

[Ayeshteni]

Is it the undying support of the Liberian Hordes around Orleans?

Nope. But proud I am of those plucky lads.

Italy is left almost undefended?..

Nope, but that does put a wee smile on my face. If only I had the troops in the area to exploit it.

As for German ships in Cherbourg, that does NOT make me happy.

[Turin the Mad]

You ... are just outside of Paris ?

 

[unmerged(56754)]

How did you get troops into Poland?

 

[trekaddict]

The Soviets have taken Berlin. The German Capital is in Essen.

 

[unmerged(62857)]

Wow, great progress. I think you need to "purge" your naval officer corps... Quite frankly, they suck, as based on your descriptions, you are right, you were not overstacked. (Presumably you used grand admirals for fleets over 18 ships in size...)

 

[trekaddict]

And why the hell was Cunningham who in OTL destroyed the Italian Navy commanding a bloody transport fleet?

 

[Ayeshteni]

The Soviets have taken Berlin. The German Capital is in Essen.

We have a winner!

Here you go. ●

How did you get troops into Poland?

Warsaw Rising event.

@Bafflegab and trekaddict: Well he just was ok. Yes, my navy suck.

A relatively hectic but short update coming up. Hard to remember doing screenies when the world explodes on you.

Ayeshteni

 

[Ayeshteni]

Sigh. *ding ding* round two!

Some good news, some bad. This was the second battle against the KM, the first saw me sink a CL....and lose two 'ships'.

Woohoo, with victories like this we should have this settled soon eh?

Its a rush against the Soviets to carve up the Reich!!! Oh yes, France liberated too. YEHAAAAWWW

*insert a screenie of the Germany surrenders event sequence*

Yeah, I'm a twonk, I forgot you can't use F11 when an event window is open.

90% of my expeditionary forces decide enoughs enough and I lose control of them. Meanwhile, my troops in Italy find themselves in a bit of a supply bother. :wacko:

Oh will insert screenie of present situation. Doesn't seem to have taken a screenshot (prolly had another event window open).

Standings:

Axis 30
Allies 409
Comintern: 284
