Three days later Great Britain and France declared war against Germany, but it was empty declarations. In effect of the passive policy of western powers, Germany's ally the Soviet Union attacked the rear of Polish army 17th of Sep 1939, and break the rest of Poland's chances for defense. The Polish Supreme HQ and the government escaped to Romania and continued war with Germany to bring the downfall of III Reich.

3. ADVICES 3.1. GERMAN PLAYER You have got all trumps in your hand and on turns 1-3 you will have a shock effect, you have to be determinate in your conquer ideas, every mistake will give time for opponent reorganize. In Tarnow, Przemysl, Deblin, Bialystok your supply points will appear - remember about this because you don't have mobile replacement units. Try to kill as many Polish supply units as you can - this unit not will be rebuild. Take fast Brzesc and finish war in the Blitz Krieg stile. Remember after the 21st day of your campaign your supplies will drop, after the 35th and 40th turn your supplies will drop again and supply your radius will be reduced. Be effective in your campaign - western "public awareness" will not be watching for blooding Poland to long. 3.2. POLISH PLAYER You have big problem for defense of your country. German supremacy is very bright and deployment of your unit is not ideal - you have to invent something because you will lose. Try to save mobilization areas and supply point as far as you can, effect of losing this points in western part of Poland will decrease suppies. Try to save Deblin - lost of this depot will be effect reduction supplies by 10 points! After loosing of Brzesc, Poland will be attacked from east by the Red Army this is your end - this is your final comedown. After the loss of Stanislawow you will loose last chance for defense and will loose game immediately. 4. Designer's notes Inspiration to create this scenario was painful feelings when I found few INVALID and silly scenarios made by some strange guys. I think this is more detailed and more realistic scenario concern Polish Defense War in 1939. Base for my scenario was scenario of Barba group. Presently from their scenario existing only deeply modified map - now terrain is very close to real. I'm a professional soldier and nobody will drive me to half of soldiers in company from 1939 not will be enjoy in the battle - in effect I made different composition of battalions and regiments in compare to usually used standards. Presently in second edition of scenario I made a lot of changes. New EXE will give you reality of firsts day of II World War. In effect of modification of units organization and new sources whose I found, I giving you historical scenario. Most important modification is new point of view for command organization - I accept unconditionally base level of unit for both forces - base for that was analysis of radio broadcasting station possibilities - for German that was battalion, for Polish regiment. In effect I was marked Polish units as undivided - that giving for German player possibility of faster advance and more spaces for advance. Another big changes is modification of Luftwaffe planes - presently are more deadly. Modification of Polish AA units cop Polish player AT possibility of those units - now destroying of armored regiment by AA units is almost impossible. |
