JULY 17 1940

He seems to have changed his mind about retaking Casablanca. I wonder why?

Check this out: Moved my Para to within range of Southampton. It's wide open and
a CV is docked there!!!!

I need German firepower here, but I'll try to flush out his fleet with the Italians.

AUGUST 6 1940

CV destroyed in Port & Southampton falls without a fight. England is going down!

August 26 1940

Now the trouble is a deficit in transport capacity, still I have a port so beginning pumping in troops.

A BB makes a suicide run.

My bomber goes to Ireland to see what's what. That French fighter needs to die.

Italians sitting around in Libya. I'm afraid if they advance Morris will crush them.

The plan is to finish the conquest of North Africa with the help of the Germans. A mech and an INF plus some air will hopefully be enough.
Meanwhile, conquer England and then head for Iraq (if there's time).

September 15 1940

***NEWS BULLETIN*** Egypt and Iraq join the Allies.

Sea Lion starts to yield English ground.

The RN flings itself into the Channel for little effect.

Still setting up down here. There's at least 2 subs and who knows what out here.

October 5 1940

Morris seems to be exclusively building INF corps.

Ok finally moving on Tunis.

That won't be enough for barbarrosa:

October 25 1940

Birmingham succumbs, though I got sloppy with my FTR placement and Morris smacks it silly.

Next stop: London!

The RN has taken a beating and withdraws save for a harassing sub.

Good news in Tunis - one more turn most likely!

November 14 1940

Weather turns to snow slowing things down.

And a quick shot of Africa.

Dec. 4 1940

Nothing too remarkable this time, but here's a shot of Africa

More progress in the UK.

February 2 1941

Nothing tricky going on. Just grinding towards Liverpool and Cardiff.

Same deal in NA.

And subs try harassing convoys near Halifax.

February 22 1941

My only remark is that since the Aussies and Indians are in West Africa, there might not be much waiting for me in Egypt.

No chance of a 41 Barbarossa with just this to work with...

April 3 1941

Weather good in UK so this will end soon. Meanwhile steady progress in NA and Egypt.

April 23 1941

More of the same. Looks like the airforce won't be supporting the troops in North Africa.

Also some fleet skirmishes in the Atlantic.

Some quick updates...

June 2 1941

The updates will go quickly now. I think I've botched things- I can't get to the oil before the US gets there, maybe not even before the Russians.

June 22 1941

Something big heading towards North Africa. I only need Oran.
Progress slow in Egypt so reinforcements enroute. No shot of UK, just
mopping up now.

July 12 1941

Another CV will die soon. Atlantic fleets are being worn down and the Spanish
navy will join.

August 1 1941

Stalled in Egypt until my air arrives. I should have Oran very soon.
