The Grand Winter Offensive that will end this war was launched by Vasili Kleshnikov this month. The largest combined army in Europe descended upon Germany's vaunted Westwall. However, this elaborate defensive network turned out to be merely a picket fence as the People's armour poured into the Reich under the cover of our new Il-2 Sturmoviks.
Frankfurt was captured, inflicting losses of armour, SS troops, bombergroups, and stukas to the Germans. Stalin was outraged to find out that two entire divisions of Spanish fascists were defending Frankfurt under the command of the Nazi's. He demands an explanation from Spain as to their presence on the battlefield!
Having smashed the westwall wide open, hundreds of thousands of Soviet men advanced in order to end this horrible war. With the Oder breached at Frankfurt, a quick drive was excecuted in the direction of Berlin. Lighter resistance was encountered in the outskirts of the city but as we neared the Reichstag and Hitler's bunker, the soldiers we faced were elite Falschirmjager divisions.
These fanatical, suicidal defenders of the Reich were no match for wave after wave of T-34's supported by scores of Red Army regulars and the ocasional NKVD operative. Fighting took place in every room, on every floor as the search for Adolf Hitler and his henchmen continued. His whereabouts are unknown at this time, but at 14:24 on the 21st of November the Hammer and Sickle of the People's Republic was raised atop the German Reichstag.
Germany's capital is in ruin, and its government and army are on the run. Some higher ranking capured Germans are talking of a proposed surrender being worked up, but we have had no contact of any kind regarding this. Stalin has not made public his intention to accept anything less than unconditional surrender.
The day before the collapse of resistance in Berlin, Stalin made a speach wishing the French and British armies the best of luck and a speady victory in their battles with the Germans in the west.
Frankfurt and Berlin captured.
-Vasily Kleshnikov.

Hey, thanks everybody!  I've had a blast playing this PBEM as everything has pretty much fallen into place for me. Case, the startingpoint of my army is classified, you'll have to wait till the postwar era when I retire and write an autobiography: Kleshnikov- a Tale of Love and Sorrow  Honestly, note that T-34's have a movement of 12 in winter... I could attack from anywhere in Poland and still get a few hit with each T-34. Vet T-34 is enough to take out those pesky Bunkers, if I am lucky on the draw and there is no river involved.
I have also noticed that you still have a bit of fight in you as well Case. I dont mind continuing to play, and since it has been designed as such, perhaps fighting other nations later. But to be honest... I have the most cities by far, will be getting the lions share in the comming months, and have Hoover's Dam. I wouldn't want to fight against me.  But if everyone wants to continue, I'm down for that.
Cricket. Very odd scoring. I listen to the BBC late at night here on our public radio station. The cricket score section is always my favourite because I have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. None whatsoever. "A 345 on their first 30 over. The next 300 should see Wochestershire getting another 4,500 on the double willy-nilly." That kind of thing. Its great. There are sme Indian fellows that play cricket at the baseball diamond down at the university I live by. I stop and sit on the bleachers to watch them occasionally, but the game is still unknown to me. 
Now for this Irish business. For now we have no comment on the issue. That ordeal is not in our sphere of interest or influence. If our allies were to request assistance, we would have to think about the course of action. However, since Spain is claiming that if Britain acts on the invasion of Ireland, then Spain will give her Irish possesions to Turkey.... that changes everything.
Why on earth would you want to do that? Turkey has no ability to fight a war in Ireland. Spain has a far better chance of shipping troops there. If Spain is doing that so that Turkey has a reason to launch offensives from her homeland into Greece with the army she has been building heretofor in this game... then this is a grave mistake. A Horrid miscalculation indeed. I needn't even entertain questions as to what the Soviet reaction to such events would be. I think you know.
I know you two are itchy to fight, but unless you attack the Germans, you'll wind up getting trounced. But hey, were all having fun, right? 
-FMK.

Hitler Dead, FM Case Takes Command
The German people have greated the news that Adolf Hitler is dead with a mixture of shock and relief. According to the few survivors of the Berlin garrison, the Fuhrer was killed when elite Soviet Guards troops stormed his bunker underneath the Reich Chancellory.
Ignoring the conditions set out in Hitler's will, the little known Field Marshal Case has seized power at the head of the remnants of the German army. All the surviving Nazi Party and SS leadership have been given one week to report to their local Volksgrenadier regiments so that they may continue their direct involvement in the war which they began.
Operation Defiance Launched
In willful ignorance of the military situation in Europe, the German Armed forces have gone on the offencive.
In the East, troops of Army Group Oder have recaptured Frankfurt and Berlin. While huge numbers of Soviet formations were destroyed in this operation, the survivng German troops are anxiously awaiting the expected Russian counter offencive.
The troops which liberated Berlin have overseen the removal of as many of the cities residents as was possible. The regugees have been advised to head for western Germany so that they may escape the Russian jackboot.
The troops in Berlin have also recovered Hitler's body, and given him the burial he deserved (in the Berlin zoo crocodile pit)
In the west, the city of Orleans has been destroyed by a joint Luftwaffe-Army operation.
--------------
Despite me hitting control+n at the end of my last turn, a lot of my units had moved since my last turn. I guess that somebody forgot to change their rules file. As I'm dead meat I don't really care, but it would be nice if everybody checked that they switched the rules file
