PRAVDA

Heroic Red Army Soldiers shatter enemy defences!

The Facist invaders are surrendering in the thousands as our gallant army and Red Falcons drive forward to liberate the grateful people of the Baltic Republics from the hand of the oppressor!

Crowds of thousands lined the streets!

Our devoted leader Stalin hails the efforts of the armed Soviets! The fall of Berlin is soon at hand! Onward men of the Red Army!

>>>>>>>>>>>

DER VOLKISCHER BEOBACHTER

Stalwart defence of Courland peninsula allows our Werhmacht to drive the Bolshevik hordes back!

Fighting side by side with the our fellow Nordic Latvians, Lithuanians and Estonians, the brave defenders of Festung Courland have resisted to the last.

Their heroic self sacrifice has allowed our Panzers and mighty Luftwaffe to drive the untermensch from the borders of the Reich!

Now is the time to press onwards, and drive the invaders back to the wilds of the East where they belong!

Our Fuhrer is watching!

>>>>>>>>>>>>

S! all

So far the map has been reset twice.

Both times the pocket has been eliminated, but the Germans have advanced eastward from their mainland positions.

No side has satisfied the actual victory conditions but...

Overall Soviets have captured more territory.

Tactical victory both times for the Soviets.

Better luck next time Luftwaffles...

Maybe when those perkies kick in and the Jets start whistling overhead.

I got online last night for one flight, with Popeye, and had one heck of a run before logging.

I can only hope my miniscule efforts helped the Rodina in some small way

Last night was great. We beat back a german offensive on 51, and launch a counter attack on 52. Although we didnt capture 52, it did relieve the pressure on 51. Hail the Red Army.

Yesterday, LW was able to fought off red horde, despite top rank's lack of appreciation of their pilot's lives.

Red airforce showed painfully green condition, and lots of soviet pilots were slaughtered in the hands of the superior flying skills of the reich pilots, showing again that mass attacks will never be useful against a superior born LW!

Just to point something out the majority of ground taken by the vvs (especially in kurland) was taken with no resistance milkruns.

The arena should be reset.

as an impartial observer, and working with both sides at times to even sides... the lw has more fighter pilots, the russkies have more buff and goon drivers. You tell me who will win? lol, it would seem obvious.
