Operation Supercharge Launched!

This month remnants of the Normandy landings, supported by reinforcements en route, managed to evade German forces and seized Dunkerque and Antwerp. Also at the same time a Commando raid was carried out on Brest, but only second-rate forces were defending so the city was seized with very little bloodshed. Also the RAF fighters left in Britain were scrambled and annihilated the German counter-offensive forces.

April of 1941 Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

The Red Army continues to resupply the Chetepaka assault forces now entrenched along the Danube. The Red Airforce's ranks have now been fully resupplied with 30 new machines; the quota Stalin set at the start of the conflict.

Continuation of assisting the Allied assault in the Balkans, the Red Airforce this month shot down bombers around Sarajevo, as well as smashed a group of tanks consisting of a M-11/39 Italian tank supported by a StuGIII. The road is now clear for the Allies to push on to Split.

As the Spring thaw receeds, recon units expect a full thrust by the Germans from the direction of Budapest this summer. The roads are beginning to dry, and soon the Panzers will march. However, they will find themselves impaled on the end of our bayonetts and crushed beneath the treads of our tanks!

-Vasily Kleshnikov.

I think that I got it from the British comedy series 'The Young Ones' where the character Neil the depressed hippie used to say it [did that series ever get screened in the US?]

British Thrown into the Sea (Again)

Britain's vaunted 'Operation Supercharge' has proved to be 'Operation Superflop'.

Upon hearing of the invasion the alert German Panzer divisions of Army Group A launched a counter attack which suceeded in destoying the British invaders as they cowered in the ruins of Dunkerque, Antwerp and Brest.

German casualties were heavy, but were light in comparison to those suffered by Britain and her Free Polish lap dogs.

Below: troops and tankers of the 4th Panzer Division preparing for action


Beirout Captured

Troops of the Iraqi Liberation Army have secured the city of Beirout in the wake of the Turkish evacuation of the city. While no contact with Turkish troops was reported, it appears that the overzealous Turkish governor has declared war against Iraq and her German Ally!

The German government wishes to emphasis that it has no plans to allow further attacks on Turkish territory, and only allowed the occupation of Beirout as an attempt to prevent the Allies from occuping the city.

Operation TREZUB! The fall of a capital! Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

In this month, Comrade Stalin reviewed the map of the front. Things have stabalized in the Balkan Front, as positional warfare has taken control of the large German and Soviet forces concentrated in the area. "Marshal Kleshnikov, we need to relieve preassure on the battle for Budapest. We cannot simply hunker down, and wait for the hordes of Germans to come upon us in that sector. We've lost the momentum from our initial successes there, and the opposing forces must only be getting stronger, as are we." He continued..

"We have a new operation planned here that will give you the breathing room you and your boys in the south require. And above this, I have just recived a report stating that the 11th Guards Heavy Tank Army with its full compliment of Kv-1's has just arrived there and is at your disposal." Kleshnikov nodded and grinned. He new that the German front was shaky at best. He also knew that his forces were becoming sufficiently powerful that his position would not be threatened. Stalin then got up from his desk, made his way to a set of pulldown maps on the wall, and pulled the one labeled: TREZUB

Stalin detailed how General Andrikov would have the 1st and 2nd Guards Tank Armies at his disposal at the point of his advance. He was to cross the Bug, and continue on while his large infantry component sured up the line behind the tanks.


Unlike Operation Chetepaka, Operation Trezub was completely enacted under the aircover of the Red Airforce. Masses of Polkiparov's clouded the sky and cleared a path for the armour's swift advance.


The troops fought as if they were Chetepaka veterans from the south, but no. For they were troops assaulting the ancient city of Warszawa. They smashed the meager troops holding the street barricades and focused on the double set of fortified bunkers within the city. These were a tough nut to crack, but eventually the bunker walls were breached by our sapper units using shaped charges. Soviet troops filled the city and took up defensive positions.

The desitnation of this new fighting force is known only in Moskva. They may swing to thenorth and invade East Prussia, or perhaps push to the south and join the battle for Budapest. However, Berlin is now only 2 cities away from the frontlines, effectively half the ground the troops in the Balkans have been able to cover in their battles against the 'mighty' Wermacht. This also makes for a tasty target as Hitler and his cronies are cowering there.

In any event, the silence in the north has been broken, and if you listen closely you'll hear the sound of T-34's.

Warszawa captured.

-Vasily Kleshnikov.
