Don't Mention The War - Part 27

The Imperialists and Communists continued their war of aggression during May/June 1943 which strangely provided them with plenty of fine weather*.  The train wreck that is happening to the United Europe defences continued at a slow pace, but with a back to back set of impulses secured as the war moves into summer the two front disaster is sure to accelerate.

This is not going to end well

The US and Commonwealth have captured a significant portion of the Brest peninsula and are poised to bring in more troops and with the double impulse will be able to exploit the broken German and Italians lines and drive to Paris, maybe not in the springtime, but certainly in the summer, which is bound to be long and hot.

In the East the Soviets have two bridgeheads over the Dnieper and with the double impulse should be able to easily retake Kirov Rog.  Annoyingly Ukraine won't let the Romanians enter their country to fight their common foe. Stupid lack of cooperation will cost them their country!  

Rubbing salt into the wounds, partisans appeared in France and destroyed some German aircraft.  Doh!

I will say this only once
don't park your planes outside a zoc

Whata mistaka to maka

Production


While resources are still arriving from Ukraine, there has been nothing from Sweden for a long time and that now goes for Finland.  French resources have come under threat as well.  Add to that the Imperialists bombed Polish factories.

Note

* May/June 1943 provided four impulses of fine weather.  In contrast, May/June 1942 provided three impulses, two of which where snow/storm.  That was the turn that Germany belatedly declared Barbarossa.

Going back in time, May/June 1940 it was fine, fine, rain EOT (just when the invasion of France was gaining momentum).  May/June 1941 it was four fine weather impulses which saw France finally fall, but an abrupt end to the turn (20% chance) before Germany could manage to get an essential extra one or two units to the east to break the garrison limit. While the May/June 1943 turn could have continued (it ended on a 2) the subsequent winning of the initiative by the Allies has given them a aback to back turn which should prove fatal for the Axis in both the west and east.
