Soviet News:

War against Japan:

Remembering our aggresive Japanese Neigbourgs that they took the first step to war, they also have to take the first step to cease it. Though the brave blood spilled by the Soviet army of workers and peasants will not have been in vain.
A Japanese "Kate" type bomber shot down by russian fighters near Vladivostok.
Kurilean Islands sacked by Soviet Marines.

War against Germany:

German JU-88 destroyed by the Soviet navy near the coast of Königsberg. Königsberg bombed, but remains under German control.
Several German divisions killed at the Soviet border. Lublin in ruins after a Soviet tank attack.

Schukow thanks his American comrades for the valuable lessons in Blitz Krieg tactics: "we will take on the Germans with their own medicine", Schukow states.

General News:

Nothing to report.

 

[BKA]

Good news anyone!

I have finally managed to rebalance the strenght of the fighter plane units. They have all received upgraded attack and defend strenght in addition of being a bit cheaper to build. So, now this part of the scenario should be better balanced. :shotgun:

Hope you all will dowload this new rules.txt

 

[Boli]

Hey I might actually be able to use the planes now in actual combat rather than havng them as scouts.

Incidentally after the 17th I won;t be able to play any turns untill early January as I will be home for Christmas - Though I recon I won't be the only one - just warning everyone.

[Morten Blaabjerg]

I suppose this means we all play using the new rules for this round?

 

[voltar]

2 British battleships destroyed
2 british cruisers destroyed.
2 soviet tanks destroyed

 

[BKA]

That was my intention Morten.

 

[Eivind IV]

Retaliation:
One Early bomber and one stuka squadron shot down in Europe.
Some German ships sunk in the North Sea, including a sub with many torpedos.

Asia:
Cease fire with the Japs broken! Indo China liberated!

 

[Boli]

Fierce fighting in Aisa and aside from hearing half his units decided to go "walkabout" all is unchanged in The empire of the Rising Sun.

 

[Morten Blaabjerg]

The news of Mr. Einsteins arrival was welcomed by americans all over the country with spontanous parades and celebrations in the streets. However, rumours of a minor breakthrough in US weapons development can not yet be confirmed by american officials.

"Apparently our expectations to Mr. Einsten were a little over the top, so it seems", so said the spokesman. "Mr. Einstein is still shaken and in bad shape, still suffering from the torture and ill treatment from his stay in nazi concentration camps, a hell from which he only narrowly succeeded in escaping. He will need a warm meal and a good nights sleep, before we can get to work. Thank you."

News from the Soviet Union

The Soviet union is not pleased that Mr. Einstein didn't like the fair city of Novgorod.

War against Germany:

Königsberg bombarded by a Soviet battleship, several German units lost.
Brest-Litovsk bombed into ruins.

War against Japan:

The rampagning Japanese battleship in the sea of Okhotsk is closely monitored.


General News

Nothing to report.

 

[voltar]

Soviet battleship sunk of Koenigsberbg

 

[Eivind IV]

* Norway liberated! Bergen under allied control.
* Japanese convoy sunk north of Borneo

 

[Boli]

Our Glorious Comander is quiet

-- Hawaii, and Sinkiang taken
-- British Cruser sunk

That's me untill the new year - I'm going home over Christmas from the 18th to the 3rd, I WILL be back though .

~ Boli

 

[voltar]

Oh shoot, Boli we may continue to play. Would you consider finding a temporary sub?

 

[Boli]

I can transport the needed files if everyone wants to continue over the christmas period but I thought everyone might be caught up in family matters for the next couple of weeks that'll slow things up a bit, so it could well be early Jan untill it comes round to my turn again.

I am my own temmporary replacement.

[BKA]

Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year Boli. :santa:

Surely we will await your return from your Dojo - if it is not run over by Soviet forces in the meantime.
But perhaps Germany would agree to lead the Japanese for a round or two. That, I guess, is the most turns we will be able to play while you are away. Personally I will be away from my computer between the 20th and 27th of December.
But it's up to you and Voltar to deceide. Anyway we will wait for you Boli.

Best Regards

BKA

 

[voltar]

If boli can't play his and is willing to let me play. Then i'm fine with subing for the Japanese.

I'm gonna be around throught new years, constantly drunk but i'll be around.

 

[Boli]

OK you can sub if I'm not around say the 28th or so. I sent you a PM. Try not to kill me .
