I can try, but I got that map from Wikipedia, so I'd have to give you the file all annotated and such rather than remade. Would you rather work with the old one or use the hypothetical scribbled on version.CloggedDonkey said:Hey, huh, Teddy, do you think you can give an updated map on the positions of everyone? It would be easier to see the damage that way.If it's going to be too much work, I can get by, but I can just do with a basic map of were some things are (you could even just put some blobs on the map that says "Here Be Ruskies" if you want), and it's more just where the allied troops are that I care about. If you can do it, thanks, if not, then oh well, I'll figure it out.You saw the map I posted way back when, yes? If you use that as a reference, I can give you a recap on what responses I have done with regards to where which Allied troops pushed me and such.That would be great, thank you. I just need some basis on what has gone on for me to make my moves.Actually, luckily for you, there isn't much for you to respond to at this point. Right now, I'm still waiting for everyone to finish the very opening moves of the war. Basically, I take people's troops movements and make my responses. Right now, all you have to do is put your plan into action. Then I can get the full picture for you, but right now, the job should actually be pretty easy. Just do what you would do to start off your offensive in the south, if anything, based on your original opening plan. If you need help with that, in particular, just ask me or Rex. In fact, I think Rex has the best idea of what your opening plan is, since he formulated most of it.
All of the different allies are on different times, technically. So what Poland or the Wehrmacht has done doesn't affect your opening whatsoever. You haven't been left behind and your plans are still basically the same. So, for example, the Wehrmacht is already fighting in Berlin, and in his time frame you've already set out. Whereas in your time frame, the Wehrmacht is on their way to Berlin and you're preapring to set out. So all we need from you is for you to... catch up chronologically.
The plan therefore is unchanged. The 3rd army moves north to meet the 1st army. Together they move through the Soviet forces (south of the Soviet 33rd) and head for Berlin. Speed is of the essence because the Wehrmacht is a little ahead of you and not as well equipped; they'll be the first surprise assault and then you're the cavalry/finishing blow.
Supposedly the 33rd is the only soviet army that is sitting in readiness so you may have some trouble passing through the Soviet gap but, I'm not sure you would now that in character.
The 9th is going to wait for the Whermacht, American 1st or 3rd, The British 2nd or the Canadian 1st and any troops polan can spare to come up behind the soviet western front after taking Berlin. When theta happens, all forces mentioned above will basically be sorrounding and assaulting the soviet western flank.
Your 15th ought to head out east so as to be useful to the attack. I would suggest he follow Canadian and French time tables which I describe in one of my above posts.
The 7th ought to move east and north to be around where the 3rd is now. Basically, you're trying to get it in a position to offer a completely immaginery threat to the Checkloslovakian block. Don't actually rush in. Get close and then start artillery shelling. But keep enough distance that you can retreat to a defensable mountainside if you have to. Our forces in the south are really not strong enough to hold the soviets, they're just there to distract and keep the northern soviet forces unsupported by the south.
You're 5th should run up to meet my 8th. Together they'll follow the same plan as your Seventh and the French 1st. Shelling of soviet southern forces. Except in this case it'll be yugoslovia just because thats probably all we could reach.
On the subject of your 7th, the French 1st is coming up to meet with it. Its entirely your decision whether you want to delay setting out until the two armies have joined or if you want them to join on the border.
And ... thats basically it. As far as I remember ... Best of luck!

Summary: English eighth fortifies and waits for the American 5th to catch up.

Summary: The French first heads out at speeds identical to the Canadian time table in the direction of Munchen. They do suitably French things while traveling.
