@wittmann:
Wondered if anyone else did not get to answer in the negative to any Political questions.
Did you presume everyone accepted the offers?
Can you direct me to the Political Table please? Can we do in while in play?
Sorry to be a pain: you could always invade and teach me a lesson!
You can check the politics panel in game by choseing “game” menu and from there “show politics panel”.
Alright Wittman, please describe your combat move here in this forum.
But if you plan on attacking the Ottomans we need to fix it
How we fix it?
Wittman describes his attacks and we use the forum dice roll to resolve the outcome, and edit the results as needed? Then he get +4 PU next turn.
A note to everyone: You can get a great visual review of the moves done by selecting “show history” from “game” menu in TripleA. After that select “combat move” from the directory of actions on the left, and click “next” on the very bottom left to see every combat move done.
IL-2 maybe did.
I don’t trust other Russian planes, except La-7.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/triplea/files/TripleA/1_6_1_2/
From there you can DL TripleA. Ask me more if yo udon’t know which of them to DL.
Remember too that you might not be very familiar with the software right away, but soon you will be.
Now chose another one. A tank killer. Stug was rather good design.
Do you have TripleA installed?
If you do have, then you need to download the save file Noll posted, and open it in TripleA. After that chose “start local game” in TripleA.
No worries, wittman!
War… beautiful war… :-D
Now we’re talking :D
Franz I of Austria makes a provocation by playing Erika aloud :D
According to historians Jowett & Snodgrass, Mcateer, Lunde, and Alanen & Moisala, the Battle of Tali-Ihantala, along with other Finnish victories (Battle of Viborg Bay, Battle of Vuosalmi, Battle of Nietjärvi, and Battle of Ilomantsi) achieved during the period, finally convinced the Soviet leadership that conquering Finland was proving difficult, and not worth the cost;[16][30][1][2] the battle was possibly the single most important battle fought in the Continuation War, as it largely determined the final outcome of the war, allowing Finland to conclude the war with relatively favorable terms[16][31] and continue its existence as an autonomous, democratic and independent nation.[16][32] Finnish researchers state that Soviet sources – like POW interviews – prove that the Soviets intended on advancing all the way to Helsinki.[33] There also existed an order from Stavka to advance far beyond the borders of 1940.[17]

Not even close to unconditional surrender. Finns has fought against Russians many times and know well that it would be better to die than to be conquered by Russians :-D
Lol, well said!
I can’t understand it either. It was Russia who had problems with Germany, and it was Russia who needed help. So how could they make such claims?
By the way, about that unconditional surrender - Finland had of course big problems with Russia, but Russia would had had to do a lot more to make Finland surrender unconditionally. Their major attack in Finland failed, partially thanks to Germany. Russia was not ready to push more troops and equipment on rather insignificant front and they were in a hurry to rush to Berlin, so Finland avoided occupation by Russians.
Well, Finnish politicians did quite good if we don’t mention those who before 1939 did their best to not buy anything to Finnish Defence Forces. I wish dearly those politicians would had been sent to the front line. To the front line in…to face the execution squad :D
However, Finland would of course wanted to stay neutral in WW2, like Sweden did. There was absolutely no point in declaring war to Allied nations. Even an idiot would had understood that.
Anyway, Germany gave Finland arms and troops in critical moments 1944 to stop Russians. I bet Germans did not have too much themselves. And what the Finns did? Threw Germans out of Finland and made peace with Russia. I am not too proud of that, though.
I am curious to know why they chose that Eastern Europe was to belong to Russia. How did Russia manage to negotiate that?
@CWO:
@wittmann:
Nice pic. Any idea what unit�� and where it was taken?
I recognise the insignia, but cannot place it. I imagine it is attached to IISS Pz Corps. But it could be Wehrmacht.If you Google “Friedrich Zschackel” you’ll get a bunch of hits for tank pictures, with captions.� I didn’t check them, but one of them may provide the answer.
Was a very good idea!
I found a profile pic for myself.
And something else :-D

Lol, I promise to be silent when something happen on politics or actual posting of save files begin :-D
Man, you live in UK and don’t drink Ale. I don’t know what should be done to you. Maybe some locals would know a good British style punishment :-D
I could, on the other hand, begin to blame you of that pub culture and Real Ale is dying :D
@wittmann:
I have a 30 seater place, so I only do bottles as I would be throwing half of the barrels away.
There is a pub serving very good ales, some local.
We are only waiting on the Turkish player, then it is your go.
Man, you need to use the opportunity and drink the ale becoming unfresh by yourself before it becomes bad :D Then say to your wife that can’t throw good stuff away :D
Just joking, it is very good to limit consumption of alcohol.
Naturally the tiger, the timeless iconical tank of all times.

Makes me want to start up right away a new campaign on Steel Panthers: World at War, and forget everything else!
