Thrust East! (Patreon)
Content
This week, the Axis are thrusting east toward the Asian continent itself. Armies are facing each other along a front stretching from Murmansk in the Arctic Circle to Tobruk in the North African deserts. In the deserts, Rommel's forces begin an attack that could threaten all of British occupied Egypt itself. In the Soviet Union, the Germans advance across the river Don even deeper into the Southern USSR, and are moments away from launching Fall Blau, a plan which would see them Wehrmacht finally cripple the Soviet war machine.
Is there any hope for these upcoming offensives? Can the Axis truly conquer all of Eurasia? Will it just be the "Russian Winter" which stops them, or are there much more nuanced reasons the Soviets are still fighting the German invasion?
