stjeand(Axis) vs ComadrejaKorp(Allied) France All in

[stjeand]

Turn 9

Wolfpack sinks 4MM and an Escort

Germany builds a Mech and 40 Supply trucks.

Will post soon the expected troops for the attack on France.

[stjeand]

Turn 10

11 MM sunk...thanks for sending oil or PP back to Canada.

The wait continues.

[stjeand]

Turn 11

Wolfpack does well...10MM 3Escorts sunk but 1 sub takes 4 hits.

Worth it. That sub goes home to get better.

Germany builds 2 subs and starts to ungarrison its troops.

Finally having a decent BOA...and will not make it past France. Sad

[stjeand]

Turn 12...2MM but 4 hits on subs, 1 takes 3.

Have to head home for a few months.

[:)] Thanks for making this. I hope to see more screenshots starting May 10th.

[stjeand]

OH there will be. Just not worth the time now.
I will be posting shortly my order of battle...and look for suggestions.

Then...we hit.

Sadly this is one to the best games I have had as the Axis and will lose in July mostlikely.
But one never knows.

[stjeand]

So...the Axis will have the following...

Their starting 2 Panzer Corps.

Reinforcements
April 2nd
2 Panzer Corps
1 Mech Corp
April 30th
1 Panzer Corp
1 Mech Corp
May 14th
1 Panzer Corp

20 or so INF Corps
And the assorted air units


So now...the question is...

Netherlands and Belgium to open a wide front?
Just Belgium?

Anyones thoughts?

I almost always hit the Netherlands. I just need 2 Inf Corps, 1 Armor, 1 Mech...then the rest hit Belgium.

About a 25% chance I take Belgium. Not been having the best of luck. But we will see.

[ncc1701e]

I am always doing both. And, for the test, I think it is important to do both.

[stjeand]

Turn 14...again lost a turn.

1MM sunk...5 hits on sub and it sinks. Yup...5 hits one turn in 1940.

You spoke to soon my friend

[stjeand]

Yes I need to learn to keep my mouth shut.

Turn 16

1MM sunk, subs to home for an upgrade.

[stjeand]

Here are the starting forces.

4 Armor
1 Mech

1 Armor
1 Mech to deploy so will be fresh for France

[stjeand]

NO AIR to be used in the campaign vs the Netherlands

First attack 1 loss to infantry.

[stjeand]

Fresh infantry moves into the spot vacated by the Netherlands corp and attacks...pushing it back further
Then a panzer moves in to take the capital.

2 losses but a retreat.

A fresh infantry moves in to take the capital.

[stjeand]

Rivers always cost me more than I like...
But I pick my advancements...Heavy Artillery and Infiltrator.

Those units move into position prior to a declaration of war.

[stjeand]

Attack over the river success

[stjeand]

Air does extremely well.

Sadly I forgot to get early pics so can only see the afters.

[stjeand]

Capital in sight

[stjeand]

Only 2 movement left on each panzer against the capital.
Normally my luck fails but not this time

[stjeand]

Tech.


All planes and armor upgraded, except new stuff.
