A&A Europe - Game 1 - Germany's Last Chance


Axis & Allies Europe (1999)

Germany's Last Chance



Game: Axis & Allies Europe (1999 Edition – 2nd Edition updates)
 



The Final Battle



Germany had one chance and only one chance of survival – defeat the strong USSR defenses forces in Belorussia. Without that they had neither the economic nor military strength to contend with the Allies in the Atlantic, Africa or France. Even with a victory, Germany has no path to Moscow or a winning strategy. Still, sometimes hanging on just to see what happens with dice rolls can prove to be a serviceable strategy for a round or two. But first they have to survive in Ukraine and Belorussia.

The Final Battle for USSR:


Germany MUST hold on in Ukraine and MUST defeat the USSR forces in Belorussia to have ANY chance at all.


Obviously this does not happen. A TOTAL tactical failure as USSR is the clear victor here. While Germany might be able to build more infantry, they now have to defend against three increasingly stronger enemies. There is no path to victory, there is only prolonging the game.

Germany does the sensible thing and concedes.
