Oh…
I’ve been playing wrong this entire time???
:disappointed:
Thanks for clarifying though. I’ll take that into my next physical game.
No, not the Middle East! Hope the Iraqi rebellion leaders are given mercy for collaboration.
You’re at the gates of Moscow!
Also, why are there two different German National Control Markers? Did you not have enough of one? They both look good though.

German Waffen-SS Armies are within range of the Soviet Capital, Moscow.
Soviet troops have halted the Japanese advance from the East. But strong German Panzer and Waffen-SS formations are closing in on Moscow.
Japan has lost a Minor Industrial Complex in China - and had to build a new one in Kwangtung. Japanese troops are holding a thin line at all fronts - and the enemy seems to have unlimited man power.
United States has attacked Southern Europe as well as Norway & Finland.
In the Pacific, US forces are also on the offensive.
United Kingdom have launched an offensive from India.
The Royal Air Force are now present in the Soviet Union together with Tank forces - waiting for the Germans next step.
A build up for an invasion of Western Europe is continued in London.

Germany launches a massive offensive with Army Group Center against Smolensk.
1st Panzer Army and 1st Waffen-SS Army in Army Group Center are supported by 3rd and 4th Waffen-SS Armies - and two Waffen-SS Battle Groups with Waffen-SS Infantry & Artillery units.
Additional Infantry & Panzer units are supporting Army Group Center as well.
The entire German Luftwaffe is moved to the Eastern Front.
The German High Command has planned an All Out Offensive against the Soviet Capital, Moscow - in the beginning of Late 1946.
The best & most hard hitting German fighting units of the entire War are all within striking distance of the Soviet Capital.
In the West and South, the core of the German Army including 2nd and 3rd Panzer Armies, has been withdrawn into the German Hinterland - to lure the Allied Forces into a deadly trap.
Once the Allied Forces have advanced deeper into German occupied territories, a massive German counter offensive will be launched - and will eliminate all Allied Forces in Europe.

Late 1946 has ended.
Allied Forces have pushed both German & Japanese troops back on most fronts.
But Russia is threatened by a Massive German Army Group - Army Group Center - on the Eastern Front.
British Royal Air Force and UK Tank units are present in Moscow to strengthen the defense of the Soviet Capital.
In the West, United States has landed in Normandy - again - and has a foothold in Southern Europe.
Massive German Army Formations are assembled in the Western Europe sphere.
Those German formations will be supported by 1st and 2nd Panzer Armies - in the German counter attack that is to be launched in Early 1947.
The German Strategic Plan is to attack and destroy most Allied Forces in Europe - and at the same time launch Operation Typhoon - the attack on Moscow.
If succesfull, those Massive Offensive Operations will break the Allied capability to fight in Europe.
If Moscow is captured by German Army Group Center, the War will be over - and the Axis will be Victorious.
I like the sound of this!
Round Late 1946 has been added to the Global 1943 No.3 Game Report.
@the-captain Wow Good Action here. This has been a fun one to follow along with.
Are those Uk Fighters in Rostov ? Mosquitoes ?
So close, Axis! Please let them win!
This Global 1943 game has been one of the most intense. It is also the first time since 1996 that we play by e-mail.
We’ve seen a great Naval Battle in the Pacific, as well as multiple Massive Offensive Operations on the Eastern Front.
The Fighter units that were moved to Rostov in Early 1946 are UK Fighter units (Spitfire).
Those Fighter units come from India - and are on their way to Moscow.
The German Air Units in Belarus are:
