@thehobbesian Tha map is here, so can be downloaded manually. https://github.com/ClavintheGreat/thehobbesians_1939 I think it to make it downloadable for all, it needs to change the repository from main to master I dont have permission to do this. Here is the instructions for a rename. https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/configuring-branches-and-merges-in-your-repository/managing-branches-in-your-repository/renaming-a-branch

@Panzerstahl-Helm-0 Hallo yea I've heard it gets hot there. I guess you were already used to it this summer though yea last couple days been nice. 70s. One more and then it heats back up. Yea the flood triggered a mold invasion so the basement needs to be remediated. Not as expensive as I thought or as dangerous, just have to stay masked up and try not to move stuff around too much while down there. Still fucks with you but just have to power through. I hired the top contractor 2 days ago. She's gonna get one of her crews started next week on it. I still gotta try and salvage some shit but most of it is just gonna get launched and most of it needed to anyway. so I'll be busy and then some downtime while they do their thing. Can still time for the game I imagine. Hope you and the girls enjoying the Vacation Ciao Edit Looking at the game now. I see SSR bought 2 Arty. SPA same price. You can change if you want. Really no reason not too Edit 2 Actually the Oberst3 needed to die instead of a ss Inf as 1st SS had been deactivated due to combat losses. [image: 1784807778190-screenshot-from-2026-07-23-06-48-27.png] The Oberst rolled last and got 2 hits, so I'll put a Panzer back in for you.

I think it's necessary to block the Milan–Trento route to make it both more historical and to make the front lines even narrower than the Western Front. The mountains favored the Austrian defenders, but Italy was able to threaten both the Trieste and Trento routes simultaneously from one central position, which was their advantage. Austria won't have a factory in Trieste (but the Germans will have one in Munich). The front line will still encourage the Austrians to take Udine for a better defensive position, which was historical. Should the Turin–Lyon route be impassable as well? Maybe @cernel could help us with this? [image: 1784754980788-wwieurope_names_values-copy.jpg]
