Hinge of Fate - World War 2, 1941-1945 v1.02

Sully:

No complaints from my end. It was not covered in the house rules so it is fair game. I did the exact same thing in our last HOF game where (as the German) I surrendered Benghazi to the Minor Axis and moved my forces back to Berlin.

Not a good turn for the Italian navy or airforce. Wonder how I missed that Stuka....... So many airfields, so few bombers.....

:)

I see but at least these cities were close to one another. Here I don't see why and how Minor Axis or Axis could actually get the city.

US Turn Summary
Pacific:
Sapporo captured with inf and marines. No losses. Calv corp outside redlined.
Sunk 1 transport near Nagasaki with sub.

China turn summary
Bombed dyes tile near Suchow with bomber
Killed 1 NI in Shanghai
Bombed road near Shanghai with field arty
 
Near Moskow
-Several Air attacks against Corps sized units...nothing as usual and not sure why I continue to bother! But if this was for "real" I would continue the same strategy to bomb the hell out of Corps sized units outside of cities. You would expect that out of 4 Ju-88 attacks, one might cause some damage? My terrible luck in air attacks continue to thwart me in this game.:cry:

So with that...I fully expect 3 Corps to move out WEST, immune to air attack so they don't even need Flak to accompany them! Well that's it from here..I'm heading to the front to see if the ground troops are using rubber bullets too!!:rolleyes:

The allied bombing campaign of Europe has begun. 3 DBs fly over targets (this turn Hamburg and Koln) to draw out the ME109s. As usual, the German pilots away from the action. 10 B-17s, 4 B-25s and 2 TBs proceeded to bomb the crap out of the improvement tiles around the two cities. The damage was extensive.

Jap Paratrooper killed in Indonesia. Lost 1 Inf Div.

Damascus recaptured.

Naples bombed. Little damage. Airfield on southern tip of Italy destroyed.

US turn summary

Pacific:
Sunk 1 BB, 1 BC, 1 DD near Japan home islands with ships and planes. No losses.
Improvements around Japan bombed.

China turn summary
Shanghai captured. No losses. Nearby NI div killed by inf after bombardement.
Bombed the army near Sian down 1 hp.
 
Arghh ! My small attempt at recreating a fleet has ended in disaster before they could even try to dent the US fleet of transports :( .

Anyway : Corps army killed a Chinese in in SiAn and a division killed a wandering guerilla near Beijing.

All for now.
 
The Offensive in the Tula area has begun 1 Inf corp NW of Tula eliminated
and 1 Fort Div and Radar tower SW of Tula destroyed.

Sully, you're not the only one with bad bombing results, 10 runs on Tula
produced no results, but my heavy arty worked a little better knocking
4 hps off the army.

Also fort div and arty in Odessa damaged.

Russian losses = 1 Cav div.
 
Near Moskow
-Air attacks against the 3 Armies in and around Tula cause light damage to the units in the open. We'll see what happens when they start moving west...
