There appears to be an extra rtl in Egypt. Maybe that was where the missing ANZAC guy went.
Right now German thinktanks are hard at work planning an efficient way to salvage T-34 scrap into usable war materials for the Whermacht. :evil:
beep.beep.beep……Urgent message to Tojo… Intelligence reports indicate Russian force build-up in the SFE on the Manchurian Border…
You’d better hope the dice DON’T turn. My rolls have been about ave. You guy’s defense rolls were about 1 hit short in the two big naval skirmishes, but extraordinary in France. I lost 16 ground forces to take the three french tt’s. And I brought what seemed to be plenty of overkill. Ha! Not to be. French were dug in. I’ll admit that sz109 was a fortuitous straef. Always nice to leave just one unit then pull back :-P
Doesn’t Egypt start with two ANZAC inf?
the Nelson Battleship Group, crippled from her encounter with the High Seas Fleet, is the only thing left that floats between Western Europe and Great Britain. The RAF has crumbled. Panic runs rampant in the British Isles……
Da Furor iz pleazed with zee attack. Orders are for the High Seas Fleet to withdraw to Brest. The Bismarck and her battlegroup limp towards the safety of their french port while the Prince of Wales and Hood lie on the bottom of the ocean floor. Seig Heil!!!

I would say the axis have a slight advantage. Good axis play will have Russia bottled up in Moscow by turn 6. Russia can hold out for awhile after that, but with little income and being isolated from her allies this gives me some concern. But the jury is still out. I would hope that the final version would err on the side of a slight allied advantage and balance with an axis bid.
With the Med fleet destroyed, the Italian battlegroup withdraws to home port.

man I as all concerned about the sz109 blunder, then got beat up in France. We will not be deterred. Whrmacht forces strengthen their resolve!
retreat!
sub withdraws.
geez, that turn was a mess. I need a mouse. This laptop pad sucks. This dicey is a lot of work too. Glad the first turn is out of the way. That as a fat lip in Paris. What the hell, Guderian? Guess the Maginot was extended. sheesh.
see map for NCM’s. hope that is ok.
