Yeah I don’t know how to do the stats with all the multis and the learning games but at least I can document them in the list of all games 😀
Global 1940 & 1943 Expansions Game Reports

@the-captain said in Global 1940 Expansions Game Report Thread:
With an upgrade to Heavy Industry 2 Units in Berlin, Germany can send 12 units to the Eastern Front each turn - fx 6 Panzer units & 6 Mechanized Infantry units (total cost = 45 IPC).
Yea this a good idea for the 12 production. I was splitting em up or going all in on W Ger last time, since they were boosted.
Edit
Actually it’s an Excellent idea lol -
I would have said you’re an idiot handling Germany, but I’ve found (after many hours of thinking) that Germany sadly can’t hold all their starting territories.
Great game report! I wish you would post every turn here. Do you use a Battle calculator? Thank you! The Captain really should make a version for his rules.
-
I agree! The game starts with far too few German infantry on the frontline.
-
@The-Captain I notice you don’t have any Fortifications at 43 start. Do you guys not use them much ?
-
Thanks for noticing!
-
That’s true - in the Pacific. Germany has Bunkers in Western Europe.
Yes, we use them a lot - mostly the Allies use fortifications in the Pacific to bolster the defense against Japanese amphibious assaults.
Prior to the Global 1943 set up, some islands have changed hands a few times - so at this point, there has been no time to re-construct the defensive fortifications.
Players have the option to create those bunkers - if it suits their Strategic Plan.

@the-captain :muscle:
Yea I Fortify heavy lol. Just did J1 . This is so much fun. Don’t wanna spam but maybe some others will wanna rock out too
:grin:
Lotsa fun here. Good new challenge

End German 2
Not real happy with it. Ukraine is worrisome. I just couldn’t bring myself to retreat. The Fuhrer was adamant on no retreat anyways lol
Find out soon. Probably shoulda retreated lol
-
@barnee shoulda retreated
Germans got their ass kicked. Think this is a do over lol. Gotta couple bugs to fix anyway : )
-
@barnee Lost Novgorod too. Might have held with the Paras. Idk. Better rethink turn 1 lol
-
@barnee I guess i’ll go ahead and play it out. That Soviet Army Group in Ukraine looks unstoppable though lol Got a Tank Army up North too lol
Edit
Time for Tojo and the boys to get after it. lol -
@barnee yea f it. JPN can’t do dick. Don’t wanna waste a week on this. Fix the bugs and try again. Maybe wait till the Fuhrer gets his nighttime medicine before I retreat lol

@barnee
The Germans need to stabilize the Eastern Front and reorganize while new troops are on the way from the Homeland.Waffen-SS units on the entire Eastern Front must be organized into Waffen-SS Armies - leaving only a few Waffen-SS units to operate independently from the Waffen-SS Armies.
Two Panzer Armies should also be present at the Eastern Front.
1 Panzer General could be held in reserve - ready for action in either Europe, Russia - or Africa.

Total War Game 3
Guess I better retreat this time : ) Still wanna hit Archangel. A nice vulnerable concentration. Hope the AA doesn’t hit hard.
Hmm… well, we’ll see lol

Soviets may have over achieved with their counter attacks. Manstein may retake Krakov. Probably lose Lenningrad. Be worth it to kill that Soviet Army Group.
See what dice have to say : )
-
Ok I’ll dial it down. No more play by play lol

It is a game report. Turn by turn results be cool.
-
Please do more as frequently! It’s awesome at the very least to see the screenshots of the map.

@barnee
The Soviets will soon have to look over their shoulder, as Japan eliminates the remaining Chinese forces and threatens the eastern Soviet territories.This should take off the pressure on the Germans.
Heavy losses among the Waffen-SS units on the Eastern Front.…
