Crusader Kings III Available Now!
The realm rejoices as Paradox Interactive announces the launch of Crusader Kings III, the latest entry in the publisher’s grand strategy role-playing game franchise. Advisors may now jockey for positions of influence and adversaries should save their schemes for another day, because on this day Crusader Kings III can be purchased on Steam, the Paradox Store, and other major online retailers.
This thread is more than 5 months old.
It is very likely that it does not need any further discussion and thus bumping it serves no purpose. If you feel it is necessary to make a new reply, you can still do so though.
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!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nope. But proud I am of those plucky lads.

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.

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