Allied Turn September 22, 1939

Previous Axis Turn:
Frozen in the Arctic. Clear in Europe.

Poland is conquered. The Poles manage to do 1 more point of damage to a German Corps and an Army. A German Medium Bomber also takes a hit (for presumably 1 damage).

Allied Turn
Clear in England. Mud in Europe.

The French begin reinforcing their units at a trickle pace along the Maginot.

UK diplomats start scrambling.

23 MPP lost German sub/raiders.

Allied Turn October 14, 1939

Previous Axis Turn:
Frozen in the Arctic. Rain & Mud in Europe.

2 German Corps and 1 German Army (all str 8 at level 1) attack the French Army in Metz doing 1 damage, while a German Corps takes 1 damage back.

German diplomats are as prolific as their military as they butter up Prince Paul of Yugoslavia by 13%.


Allied Turn
Clear in England. Clear in Europe.

In the Spirit of Free Speach the French Government declines to Ban the Communist Party.
Stalin decides to show a little bit of a backbone and refuses the Ribbentrop's proposal to revise the treaty borders.
Stalin then shocks the west by declaring war on Finland, though claiming it is just a minor border dispute.

French high command continues slowly reinforcing units along the French/German border. The Army in Metz recieves a double serving.

French and English diplomats are sent out to counter German activity.
Churchill grumbles that England should not be playing verbal catchup, but should instead be investing in the armed forces.
Chamberlain, however, has the votes.

Parliment, at Neville Chamberlain prompting, also denies Churchill's proposal to seize the southern Irish ports.

German Subs/Raiders inflict 25 MPP worth of losses on the UK.

Wow, the diplomatic front is quite chaotic. [X(]

Given the short timelines to flip Yugo, I'm not sure its worth to try to sway them if you are not doing it exclusively and at full force. [&:]

Allied Turn November 5, 1939

Previous Axis Turn:
Frozen in the Arctic. Clear in Europe.

The German 1st Army (Str 8, lvl 1) again assaults the French 3rd Army (Str 7) in Metz. Both Armies take 1 damage.

Germany invests in another Major Power Diplo chit.



Allied Turn
Rain in England. Rain in Europe.

French high command decides to act on reports of mediocre morale amongst the German 1st Army (Str 7, lvl 1, Readiness 48%, Morale 61%) and launches the Saar offensive.
The French 4th (str 7), 5th (str 9) and 3rd (str 6) Armies counter attack the German 1st doing 5 damage, while each of the French Armies takes 1.
The Germans (str 2) retreat to the northeast, and the French VI Corps (Str 8) moves forward and occupies the Saar mines, if only temporarily.**
The French 3rd Army (str 5) then pulls out of Metz and is replaced by the fresher XI Corp (Str 8) via hex swap.

In the Atlantic HMS Jersey surprises U-35 in the stormy weather, with HMS Jersey taking 1 damage and the U-boat 2.
HMS Javelin then finds U-32 a little to the southwest of U-35 and forces the submarine to dive.

The UK again counters the German MP Diplo chit.

German Subs/Raiders inflict *?? MPP worth of losses on the UK on the Canadian and Indian convoy lines.

** Was hoping for bad weather on his late November turn. Don't think I got it.



--------
* Allied Income levels are from last turn, I was distracted and unable to write down the amounts when the turn ended.

Allied Turn November 27, 1939

Previous Axis Turn:
Mud in Europe.

The French VI Corps in Saar valley is destroyed by combined air and land attacks.*
French Fighters engage German escorts and exchange hits, while taking an extra hit from the German TAC bombers themselves.
A German Corps takes a point of damage in the fighting as well.
Germany recaptures the Saar mines, although extensive work will be needed to get them fully operational again (i.e. reduced to 0).
Another German Tactical bomber strikes the the French Corps in Metz doing a point of damage.
The French Army in Strasbourg is attacked by 2 German Corps, one taking 2 damage and the other 1. The French Army takes only 1 damage.


Allied Turn
Clear in England. Clear in Europe.

France continues with the reinforcing of her land units.

HMS Jersey (Str 9) finds U-47 and does 2 damage to the U-boat while not getting hit back.
HMCS Saguenay, enroute to help HMS Jersey, finds U-32 does 1 point of damage to the sub and nimbly dodges the counter strike (i.e. Damage Evaded).
HMS Javelin forces U-47 to dive, but quickly finds her.
The French Destroyer Terrible takes her turn and does 2 damage to U-47.

German subs/raiders inflict 23 MPP damage on the India Convoy line.

Soviets lose 5% Mobilization upon starting hostilities with Finland.


--------
* If I had known the Luftwaffe wouldn't be grounded I wouldn't have advanced into the Saar. It was a gamble that I lost.
With all this good November weather, I can only hope that Spring will be rainy and muddy into mid May.

Allied Turn December 19, 1939

Previous Axis Turn:
Frozen in Europe.

French Fighters engage German Medium Bombers and German escort Fighters over Strasbourg. The French fighters take 2 hits in the engagement, while the German bombers take 1. The 4th Army in Strasbourg doesn't loose any strength.
2 German Tactical bombers then strike the Army in Strasbourg and do 2 damage, bringing it to a strength of 4. A German Army then moves in and takes 1 damage assaulting the city.
A German Corps tries its luck on Metz and damages itself 1 point.

The 2 known subs in the Atlantic flee from the combined destroyers.


Allied Turn
Rain in England. Mud in Europe.

France shuffles the line a bit along the Maginot, hex swaping the 4th Army with the 8th to the South and continues with the reinforcing of her land units.

No engagements in the Atlantic, no raiding this turn either.

French & English diplomats start to sway Franco to consider remaining Neutral (+11% Allied Diplo)

Allied Turn January 20, 1940

Previous Axis Turn:
Frozen in Europe.

The Germans launch an all out assault on the French 8th Army (Str 8) in Strausbourg. Most of the damage is done by 2 TAC bombers, and the final point by a Medium bomber.
German losses are simply 1 point to a German Army.*


Allied Turn
Frozen & Snow in England. Snow & Frozen in Europe.

Franch units continue to dig in and get reinforced.

The French Destroyer Terrible finds U-32 (Str 9) on the Iraqi convoy line and does 2 damage to the sub while taking 1 back.**

Russia decides that it would be a good thing if each man in the army had a rifle.

The merchant captains are pleased at no other sign of raiders or subs.

--------
* More annoying than the loss of the Army and the city was the 24% morale hit for 'Germans advancing'.
** A little (on a minor issue) luck on my side for stumbling into the sub and on coming out ahead).

Allied Turn March 2, 1940

Previous Axis Turn:
Frozen in Europe.

The Germans assault the XI Corps (Str 8) in Metz and destroy it at the following cost: 1 hit on a Tactical bomber, 1 damage to 2 Panzers and 1 damage to a Corps.

The German sub slips away in 'Silent Mode' avoiding a confrontation with a UK Destroyer she encounters while moving away from Terrible.

Germany annexes Lithuania.

Germany declares war on Luxemburg and seizes the tiny country.


Allied Turn
Frozen in England. Frozen in Europe.

A French Army moves into Metz.
France continues to reinforce units.

No encounters in the Atlantic, and no raiding either.

Finland capitulates to Stalin's demand for territory.

Stalin is alarmed by German aggression, most notably for seizing Lithuania and denying it from the Soviets (+8% for Lithuania & +3% for Luxemburg)
USA newspapers pick up on plight of Luxemburg causing some grumbling (+2%), but the Lithuania situation is delegated to the back pages and ignored.

Only got partway through my turn. Will finish up later tonight.

Here is a picture of the Maginot situation at the End of the German turn/Start of the Allied turn before I've done anything.

Allied Turn April 3, 1940

Previous Axis Turn:
Mud in Europe.

U-32 (Str 7) is surprised by the French Destroyer Terrible (Str 9) west of Medeira, the sub takes 2 damage and the DD 1 in the encounter.
Better yet the sub's position is radio'd to the rest of the fleet.

The French 3rd Army (Str 9) in Metz is destroyed at the minimal cost of 1 damage to a German Army.
The French 5th Army (Str 8), in the hills southwest of Strasbourg, takes 5 damage and accounts far better of itself doing 1 damage to both a German Army and a Corps as well as scoring hits on both a Medium Bomber and a Tactical Bomber.

French Communists spread antiwar propoganda (-2% Morale).

*Something odd with the German naval count, as it went down from 10 to 8 without having anything actually sunk. Has Germany scrapped naval units for MPP?


Allied Turn
Clear in England. Clear in Europe.

Parliment passes a resolution turning the L.D.V. into the Home Guard.

French DD Terrible (Str 8) forces U-32 (Str 5) to dive, then hunts around and finds the sub.
French DD Jaguar (Str 10) then strikes U-32 for 2 damage, while taking 1 back and then moves off.

The French make do with the mess of the Maginot.*

The French Communists continue to make a nuisence of themselves (-?% Morale) for 2 turns in a row.


--------
* I think some hexes changed ownership after I hit End Turn, that I wasn't expecting. In the brief glimpse it looked like the French Corps between
Metz and Strasbourg suddenly got cut off. That doesn't seem right as France has just as much ZOC on those hexes behind the Corps as the Germans do.

I'm really wishing now that I hadn't advanced the Corps into the Saar and had been quicker on the ball
regarding moving the starting HQ down to the Maginot line. Also wishing I had the 50 MPP back France spent on an 'extra' Diplo chit.

At IrishGuards request here is a picture of the situation at the end of his turn and the start of my April 25, 1940 turn.

I've since sent him instructions on how to do pictures himself. [:D]
