the first Holland game...
« on: February 28, 2007, 07:17:23 AM »
Herewith some pictures of our first game. The Germans started with invading all 3 territories of Poland and Denmark, Also making attacks on Allied Merchant shipping
Axis Autumn 39




Allies Autumn 39


No action in the Pacific and not much in Europe either, well the Royal Navy and a French Cruiser tried to sink a U-boat, but took a hit on the French Cruiser.. and the U-boat survived. And Russia invaded Poland and Vyborg and the other possible territories. (not on pic i see)

The Germans invaded Holland  >:(  ;)  and started to build up against France. France received some RAF help and some ARM. Italy is looking to its Eastern neighbour... Still just looking ...  though  ;)

The first Happy Time for the European Axis  :D They Invaded France (Burgandy) and Blitz to Paris!!  Il Duce was also verry happy with this news, because first of all no Italian Troops had been needed, and he was rewarded with a France Battleship. The Royal Navy though scuttled the rest of the French fleet, but saved a Cruiser for themselves.

In the North Atlantic the U-boats did serious damage, and Japan took control of the coastline.

The British then tried to take controll of the convoy zones, and started to send troops out in the pacific to build up forces on the victory point islands.

The Germans took Oslo, and Il Duce stepped into the war. Taking Yugoslavia.. (we forgot here that mech attack wasn't approved in forest terrain...) and attacking UK convoy's

The British attacked Italian convoy and starts to reinforce Cairo.

The Germans took Narvik and got Sweden into the War :)  The Italians invaded Greece.

The Allies didn't do that much...

The Axis went on with attacking Merchant shipping, and the Italians took Crete, with some help of the Germans.

Micoom,

This looks like a great game!  I hope you guys play it out - are you having fun with it?   ;D

That was pretty gutsy, skipping Belgium and attacking over the Maginot line - did your paratrooper hit on the first round and negate the river attack penalty?

Hello Micoom,
      Everything looks great. Looks like a good game! Nice to have "talked" the Swedes into joining. Looks like the allies are doing pretty well with damage control (so far)...

Yes, those Para's made the hit  :) The RAF tried to get the Para's out of the air, but missed terrible, the French airforce was busy with the luftwaffe, and the AA guns also missed out.. And before the French knew what was going on, the Germans already stood in Paris..

The Sweden trigger was nice, because you get free manpower on the Northern Front against Russia.. Almost the whole Italian fleet is damaged, that is going to be allot of money to repair for them. The Brits still have their home fleet intact..
