This was Trout and his son, Pizza Emporer, first game using triplea. They have played several games against each other on the real board.
Details to follow
The Reich began with a full Wehrmacht build with the rest of their resources going to the U-boat Arm.
All of France was attacked, as well as the British fleets in 110 and 111. 106 was also attacked by 2 U-boats and Operation “Punishment” got an early start against Yugoslavia.
All of the attacks succeed, except for Yugoslavia, which was by design. The 110 attack was supposed to withdraw after 1 rd of combat to preserve the BB.
Unfortunately for the Kriegsmarine, their 110 Fleet was commanded by a Nazi Fanatic and refused to withdraw. Only complete and Total Victory was acceptable.
The first chance the British Royal Navy got, it was promptly sunk with their idiot commander drowning in the process.
The Kriegsmarine would be without a Battleship for the remainder of the war.
Late 1940 and with UK Air Defenses deployed elsewhere, Goring would begin the Strategic Bombing of London.
With heavy Ftr escort, 2 Bmbrs would evade the Flak and do 9 damage to the London Fctry.
Early 1941 and 1st and 2nd Waffen would form in Berlin with 1st Panzer deploying soon after.
The bombing of London would continue, with the Fctry now sustaining max damage.
The Wehrmacht and the Waffen SS would concentrate in Romainia and Slovakia.
The Soviets, Commanded by Pizza, would immediately begin to add the ideologically driven Commisars to the Order of Battle. The Red Army would start to concentrate in Belarus and W UKR. Far East Forces would begin to move west.
Commisars would continue to deploy through Late 1940 and 1st Corps would form and anchor the units in W UKR facing the brunt of the German Heer.
Belarus would remain heavily defended, with the Red Air Force now stationed there.
Caucasus and Novgorod would have substantial manpower deployed as well.
Nippon would begin construction of a Fctry in Shantung Early 1940 and complete a second one in Kiangsu Late 1940.
The IJA would press Chinese troops hard and by Early 1941, China would only control 3 Western Provinces.
The IJN would build a Harbor in Kwangsi.
Carolines would start to be reinforced via Air Trprt with a strong Fleet positioned there as well.
The new Harbor in Kwangsi would also have a signifigant Naval presence, with Yamamoto keeping the largest Fleet in Home waters.
The USN, Commanded by Trout, would launch their Biggest BB ever in Early 1940. The USS Iowa. Her sistership, USS Missourri would soon follow.
The Philippines would be fortified.
In Early 1941, two more Battleships would deploy, although not of the massive size of the Iowa class, they would strengthen both the Atlantic and Pacific Fleets.
The UK, under orders from Pizza, upgrade the S African fctry to Hvy Ind and begin to plant Landmines along the India/Burma border.
A monster attack by the Royal Navy and Air Force, sink a large part of the Regia Marina, despite a full scramble by Italian and German Air.
Late 1940 and the UK launches a CV loaded with SeaFires. India continues to produce LMs.
Italian units are defeated in Kenya, and the last of their Navy is sunk in 95 SZ
Early 1941 and not to be outdone by the colonists in America, a BB launches into Canadian waters to join the Aircraft Carrier there.
No combat takes place.
A steady stream of Tanks are now flowing out of the S African Fctry.
Egypt faces strong Axis forces in Alexandria.
