[WarInEur] 1941 Campaign

[Steve Patrick]

I started the 1941 Campaign with version 1.0.25 to avoid the preliminary
rounds.  I found a couple things and don't know they are related to the '41
campaign or???  I've played the '41 campain in CWIE-1 and had a competative
game.

Axis picked up the 2-5 paratrooper in Crete.  Later when trying to drop it,
it was undroppable.  Then I noticed it was a BG.  Perhaps should prevent
loading BGs as that ends up being a quick way to transport the unit back to
Germany for rebuilding without using sea or rail resources.

Russian RR capacity was 60, not 30 as I expected.

Germans in Africa seemed to be limited to 4 division (via sea transport).

Reached Cycle 4/43 and no sign of strategic bombers or bases.  Perhaps I
don't know how to get them, but the build limit remains at 0.

Also learned that with axis first year severe weather supply range of 10 and
attrition, don't try to hold Kiev and Minsk with milita.  Even forted up,
they don't amount to a hill of beans and the extra 4 hexes was enough for
the axis to thoughtlessly take those cities forcing the Russians to
surrender.  I continued to see how strat bombing would work.

Also since US troops arrive very attritted, there is no hope of them
prevailing in a cross atlantic amphib assault with any Germans in the area -
i.e. Germans in Spanish Morocco.
