Flames of war - Early war Campaign - Part 1 of 3

The first episode of our Early war campaign is completed

It consist of three episodes, first one is the initial Axis attack during the outbreak of the second world war. The setting is quite Historical taking place in 1939-1940 with the battles of Poland, France but also invasion of Finland and the Japanese expansion in Asia. The first set of battles are at 600 pts and the axis players choose locations and opponents to fight.

The objective of the campaign is to take the most enemy territories at the end of the Campaign. A capital zone is worth Double.




Battle along the Finnish border
Finns attack a French (perhaps expeditionary force) in the Karelian region. The result is a stunning Finnish Victory.





Battle of France
Somehow the Soviets (maybe a trade with the French expeditionary force) defend against the German blitzkreig assault. The result is a German victory.





Battle of Poland
This battle offers a more historical match up. The poles tries to fight back the invading Germans with armed forces. The battle turns out to be a German victory.





All three attacks were successfully executed resulting in new territory added to the Axis side. Score so far is 3-0, with 2 more sessions to come. Now the Capitals are threatened.
