Allies holds the factories

(October 31st - From the Front)

(FTF) On the second day of war it is clear that the Axis are in an akward position, without factories and cut in half with their main forces they are fighting for their lives. Wehrmacht decided to go for the Zeelands in the beginning of the campaign and beat their heads against the wall of Antwerp while the Allies encircled Luxembourg and took more and more links in the center and then managed to advance on all fronts bout the north. The Axis lost the map in 16 hours in what could be called a bold move but in retrospect a huge failure. OKW explains it with the fact that they have alot of new officers, the whole CinC staff was fired recently by CRS and more then a few left to joined the Allied side due to different reasons. On the second day of the campaign the war continues but the Axis are to divided to pose a serious threat to the Allies. One thing is sure thou, the Allies have yet to make a mistake this campaign and the Axis alot of thinking to do.

The Playskewls experience an over-pop of disgruntled Axis players as well as some Allieds who aren't happy with the current situation. But Cornered Rat Latham thinks differently as he posted in Playskewls: " The game and the HC's aren't in bad shape. Sometimes one side wins faster than the other. In this case you can see the evolution of the game first hand. The faster play, more intense play is the road it has taken.Regardless of win or lose, it was fun. Once the map gets reset the same kills and flag captures will happen with skill. It's fun just to play. No one likes to lose, and losing faster than normal isn't fun but the time spent in giving it a go was. Once the map is reset the same crowd regardless of side will give it a go again.So, no nothing is in bad shape, just evolved into quicker play. Have Fun!"

Sjkeegs: " I was originally going to wait until I had captured the whole of campaign 48 until releasing a new map video, but since the first day was fairly dramatic here is the video of the first day. I had small data collection glitch at around 3AM in the morning (EST) cutting out about 3 hours of data. I'll post any updated videos in subsequent posts here."
