03 Mar 1939: The Italians have landed on the Peloponnese south of Patras.
07 Mar 1939: The Greeks have neutralized that threat but the United Kingdom has declared war on the Netherlands!
They have joined the Italian League.
World Tension is now at 52% so maybe I now have more options available.
10 Mar 1939: The United Kingdom now declares war on Iran....
....then Iran joins the Italian League.
12 Mar 1939: The SSSR and allies are still at war with Yunnan.
The trained 4ème Division Légère Mécanique is assigned to Army Mobile.
13 Mar 1939: Now that is a game-changer. World Tension is now at 87% and that means that most if not all French shackles have bee removed.
I can now join the Allies or Start Lend Lease.
Before I join the Allies I need to redeploy my forces including ordering all divisions in NW Africa to the Libyan border.
I delete all orders for Army Maginot and Army Alpine.
I transfer the two divisions on Corsica to Army Alpine....
....then order Army Alpine to garrison Corsica. That will move all its divisions to the island.
15 Mar 1939: In the Far East Japan has defeated China and has gained a lot of equipment. World Tension is now at 98%.
18 Mar 1939: I assign all divisions in French NW Africa to the newly created Army Tunisia.
The Italian League forces are nearer to Athens and have landed on Crete again.
We are not yet a war so I cannot request Lend Lease.
Finally I remove the Area Defense order for Army Alpine.
I still have more to do before joining the Allies but that can wait until the next post.
