Turn 20: juli ‘40
Again some fears counter attacks. Two in north France were repelled but south of Paris two Panzer units got seriously mauled and had to retreat.
My 1 and 2 armies have accomplish their primary targets and are now underway to secure the flanks and support the march on Paris

My panzer losses are mounting, I need to crush that resistance fast before my losses are unbearable. I decreased Axis minor neutrality again.

20 turns: another overview.
Production: our power level keeps rising despite our losses in fighters, subs and panzer. Significant rising in number of horses, fighters, light flak, art, trains and panzer IV.

1) Horses are cheap and efficient transport for inf and all kinds of art.
2) Light flak they will have to take over from my fighters when they get pushed out by the Allied air forces.
3) Art they are an important offensive tool and defends, I will experience this later in the game.
4) Trains for quick transport from East to the West and reverse, they will come in handy later. Also experienced later in the game.
5) Only panzer IV because later they can be upgraded to a better and efficient panzer.
6) And fighters of course.
7) Engineers first for repairing cities = airfields or building airfields and latter for building fortifications.
2 + 4 +7 = long-term planning, 1 + 5 = mid-term and 3 + 6 = short term necessity.

Turn 21:

Again counter attacks by the French. They could break thru the encirclement in the north but the attack South of Paris failed.
In this we took casualties but our forces are despite this still on course to Paris.
Production keeps on track; replacements but also creation of new units for the east. Especially panzer div and of course an air force
