Stalingradski (Axis) v Infrastructure (Allies) A3-G8

[Stalingradski]

Here we go. I'm still shocked at the lack of a British presence in France. Am I missing something? It makes me feel guilty. I read and reread the Harris site, and nope, the Brits evacuated to Britain.

Germany 1 purchases Carrier, 2 Transports = 30 IPCs.

Combat

SZ112 - I'll roll the sub first, and roll for the defenders based on a sneak attack or not.

FYI - NCM Finland and Bulgaria - wanted to make sure it happened.

Here's to a well played game for both of us, with normal luck all around... to the fight!

Germany defends its borders from the British Empire. And the French. And the dangerous Yugoslavs. And keeps an eye on Stalinist Russia. And the US. And asks Finland and Bulgaria for help in its sacred mission... and they willingly accept.

[Stalingradski]

Ok. A good turn for me, except for a tough first round in France. To round 2 of the fight.

SZ112 - defense from first round.

France - headed for a reroll I think. By the odds I end with 4 Armor and 2 either Mech or Arty.

Ok. I'm down an armor and two 4 IPC pieces. That's 14 pips. That means no reroll. A perfect defense for France!

I'll take the victory. I should have lost a mech in S France and didn't.

Convoy raiding... French raiders! To me, they're no better than pirates.

Germany collects 44 + 10 NO + 19 France -2 CO = 71 IPCs.

Overall, I think I'm down a Mech and Armor on land, and up a sub at sea.

Mighty Russia!

Russia $; 4art, 7inf = 37.

[Stalingradski]

I should have had one more fighter in N Italy because of my attack into S France. I'll adjust accordingly on the map.

[Stalingradski]

Japan purchases Minor IC, 2 Transports = 26 IPCs.
