Talkin' with Tex

Wow!! This week has been dy-no-mite (no offense, Jimmie "J.J." Walker) with hard battles, desperate defenses and attacks that culminated with OPERATION DYNAMO on Sunday, September 19, 2021. It was the battle that DID save Dunkirk and the Allied Forces as they slugged their way to a hard-fought victory. Battles on air, ground, and sea raged in the Theatre of Dynamo in the round along the coastal shores and countryside of France and Belgium; not to mention the English Channel. Hordes of infantry and tanks, swarms of aircraft, squadrons of destroyers, trawlers, and even freighters! No one does combat like WWIIOL so it was intense for the three hours of gameplay. At the end, both sides gathered together on Discord as XOOM did a quick ad hoc roundtable to gather player feedback. There was some very good feedback given and if you would like to add your 'two cents' continue to let us know. Special thanks to WESTY91 for the planning of the event, kudos to the event commanders JWRONA and KMS, and, of course, the hat tip to the GM Team as OHM and TMAN performed their special magic in setting up the scenario map, equipment tiers, and forward bases for both sides. We cannot fail to mention the efforts of the Marketing Team with IMBRUTUS' promo video and the always spectacular photos by PROPA in the run-up to the event.

With the Allied victory, a future event will be "The Weygand Plan". The Community Management Team is striving to plan various historical or what-if scenarios based upon the victor of each special event. Our intent is to continue to pursue history while having a good battle whenever we can.
