Round 3 2vs2: Lucky1/GKar vs MarshallArt/Sandeman

RE: Round 3 2vs2: Lucky1/GKar vs MarshallArt/xianing
WA - Spring 1940
As Italy declared war to us in a wrong time, WA attacked Ethiopia and blocked Med. Desperate Italian retreated to Lybia and seems they were out of supply---probablely Hitler don't want to pay much for North Africa.
With successful anti-sub warfare a veteran German submarine was sunk near Spain.

The Royal Navy is remarkably resilient to (preliminary) air strikes. Soon the German pilots will be casting more than shadows over the British fleet....
Yugoslavia is cowed into submission; Hungary, Rumania and Bulgaria all see the wisdom of joining the Axis cause.
File sent to GKar.
Happy New Year to all (yesterday here....)

Summer 1940 - Russian Secret Service reports good results while military production has been increased after the sudden lack of worthy opponents left for Germany in Europe... China awaits the next air raid - Can't the league of nations simply declare air raids illegal?

WA - Su 40 turn, Italian soldiers in North Africa were encircled but German tanks had never appeared. So Axis will not come back to NA soon.

Rumania, Bulgaria, Hungary and Greece all see the wisdom (Greece needed prodding) of joining the awesome Third Reich. Germany engages in some troop redeploment and development of infrastructure.
Mussolini, still smarting from the loss of his vacation home in Tripoli, is promised a tranche of Greece along Albania. He is further mollified when Hitler explains that after the war, the North African territories will be ceded in the surrender agreement. As such, Italy will have saved a few years in their administration.... That said, the Duce is concerned by the large allied concentrations in the Med and in Malta...
EDUCATIONAL NOTE: Ning has a transport in Malta that he is able to used to transport troops to the island. Because Malta is an island port, Ning can use the transport to move troops in or out of Malta AND retreat the transport back into port on the same turn, where it is sheltered by the two AA. A nifty trick that is explained in the manual somewhere....

Fall 1940 - again soviet agent have excelled while Germany seems not to like to share tech peacefully, moving troops near the border. We do have a non-agression pact, don't we? [8D]
China celebrates the downing of two bombers - sadly the AA crews were not promoted...

WA - 40'F
Not too much to report. TLC rails were bombed to give Germany some difficulty when drawing back their tanks.
We will have peace with Germany until our super weapon is ready. But if our enemy is doing the same thing...[8D]

Lucky1, is this still your turn?
RE: Round 3 2vs2: Lucky1/GKar vs MarshallArt/xianing
My apologies. It seems I accidentally moved Ning's email to another folder where it has languished until I saw GKar's message. I should have clued in that Ning had posted his turn....
**********
Germany, discquited by the large amounts of Soviet espionnage, shifts troops to her Eastern borders. A diplomatic rebuke warns that further violations of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact will not be taken lightly.....
**********
Using the neutral view mode, one cannot see the large number of tac and strat bombers massed in Britain..... Curiously, German forces in Austria were revealed(?)

Russian Winter 1941 is rather light - we save the coldest weather for next year if Germany really wants to visit Moscow [:D]
Numerous troops including Paras in Romania, most tanks (7 out of 10 or so) in East Prussia. A lot of bombers across the fronline but Germany seems to have omitted to build up their Infantry Armies (17 total) ...
Japan has massed its troops in the Chinese provinces so no double team in sight (yet).

WA 41 winter turn.
Portugal is occupied, Persia turned Axis learning so will be the next target.
Hope pressure from 3 sides would make next turn easier for Russia.

I actually wasn't planning to attack Russia this turn (next turn was the target). However, apart from having a greater stockpile of supply, I would not be appreciably in a stronger position. So..... Kiev, East Poland, Odessa, and Belarus are taken with minimal losses. Strat bombing yields a damaged factory in Kharkov and a damaged bomber (argh) in Rostov.

Spring 1941 - Russia faces a heavy tank army in Belorussia which can move into a lot of places next turn. However, with general mobilization human material shall replace heavy weapons to defend Mother Russia...
