The Rules introduction
To give you an idea as to what the rules are based we have below the intoduction to the rules or the history of the rules. As you will have guess by the first sentance that we have not followed WWII history quite accuratly, this was to give a chance to model somthing different and to give more battle option, ie it doesn't always have to be Allies against Germany. I hope to post a more in depth history of our version of WWII soon.
The year is 1945, and the allies are still stuck in France. The Battle of Britain was lost and German factories free from RAF bombing have upped production by 300%. Hitler has been killed by a freak sewer explosion and replaced by his fanatic former war minister, Hienrich Himmler who is determined to show what the Third Reich can do. His generals, free from Hitler’s tampering and with the help of French peasant battalions have launched a, would be successful invasion but have been stopped by the might of the seemingly all powerful Red Army. Only one year before catastrophe struck the powerful army threatening to break it apart. Stalin was killed. Not by a highly trained American assassin but by a lone and lost German bomber who dumped his load on the nearest city in which Stalin happened to be inspecting troops, Stalin and his two top generals were blown apart along with their car. Fighting broke out between the Russian generals each wanting to seize power and retaliate against the Germans. During these struggles, riots and protesting disrupted all the major Soviet cities. The culprit for these displays was the newly formed organization, Greenpeace who were promptly arrested and shot by the Russian Secret Police for disturbing the peace. In the end the victor for governmental power was the Soviet Chief of the General Staff and Deputy Minister of State for Defense, Aleksandr Vaselevsky who immediately set out to destroy German dreams as conquerors of Europe and avenge Stalin’s death. The Red Army rips trough Europe taking Poland, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Switzerland, parts of France, Holland and Belgium splitting off German troops in the north of France and Holland from Germany. The British and American armies now have pressure from both Russia and Germany.
