After Action Report GS 2.01.xx – Germany Attacks![cancelled]

Post by KingHunter3059 »

I have been thinking about doing an After Action Report (AAR) saga for some time, so I think I will pursue this one. In this way, I can explore the normal strategies and perhaps some that may be somewhat abnormal. But it will be in good fun, Please let me know what you think of this AAR. I will be German, and my opponent (shall remain nameless) has agreed to the following game options:

You will notice that we have agreed to turn off the OIL Consumption, which should lead to an interesting Game!

Turn 1 (Sept 1, 1939)
The Axis Attacks Poland!
I decided on the traditional opening (I would guess this is comparable to the Kings Gambit in chess)

Although I did leave Lodz Open, I think this is a strong opening move. My TECH investment was in Industry.

You must bring in a leader near Aalborg, otherwise it is quite hard to finish off Oslo during the Winter. Rundstedt will give effiency to the Bombers as well as to one of the INF attacking Oslo.

Turn 8 (January 19, 1939)
Well the big showdown will happen next (France). I wonder why my opponent has not reacted to the Norway move, I guess it was unexpected. If this slowness continues I will get another General and continue with the suggestion by Zechi…

It's time for the Spring Offensive!

Central Sector:

Nice progress, as we implement the sitzkrieg plan to good use. However, we see the dreaded Franco-Anglo double line of defense well prepared for our forces.

Northern Sector

We will see if a reinforcement in the north will speed things up, also we are considering adding another General and more air as we have availability.

Overview: A slow start to the offensive, we did some minor repair and landed reinforcements in the north.

After a logistic troop halt, we prepare for the destruction of the Franco-Anglo forces, we will exploit the weakness in the line and break through and take Paris.

We land another unit to begin to clear this city and take Norway. At this point, we are looking at adding another general and Air support (May take a while) to finish this small theater.

Slowly we are gaining ground. This double line is hard to crack. But more of his units are turning red (Low efficiency), a good sign – I hope to make a big breakthrough soon.

Ok – Adding another fighter and going to buy a leader. This aught to finish this sector off…
