Allies - Stabilizing the Balkan Front - 19 Feb to 01 Mar 1941

Image
19 Feb 1941: Thanks a bunch America! So I plan the construction of 3 more Refineries and 6 more Military Factories. Good. Army Gibraltar will soon arrive in Albania. Here are the movements of Army Macedonia. Basically they are marching to assigned frontline but the red line indicates a planned offensive to protect my flank. I collect another division for Army Gibraltar in Central Africa. Germany's Eastern Front. 20 Feb 1941: The Danes are on the offensive and may well capture Hamburg! US and Norwegian divisions are arriving by sea. The War Summary hasn't changed much. Greater Portugal will soon capitulate. Hungary appears to want to join the war on the Allied side but it can't official join us because they are already in the Pact of Rome faction. Southern Germany is looking good as fresh divisions begin to arrive. 22 Feb 1941: Stubborn German resistance at Ulm but a couple of days later. 24 Feb 1941: A German division has been forced to retire and we are now winning. Two of...

Allies - The War Effort and Major Offensives in Germany - 15 Feb to 19 Feb 1941

Image
15 Feb 1941: I plan for Infantry Equipment production to be increased to 25 Military Factories. The grey/red bar above 97.2/day is the % productivity at the moment, i.e. about 60%. I also need to produce more tanks. I deploy two new RAF Squadrons to Serbia.... ....then place two Squadrons located at Sofia in training. Romania's Diplomacy chart. No surprises here. Bulgaria has reappeared, presumably because Greece didn't garrison the region enough, and they are Axis again. Fortunately they have few troops, if any. I need more garrison troops to be deployed too. Also no new information on the War Summary. 17 Feb 1941: I remind the Dutch again and hopefully I can now pull ahead of the Germans. My War Support and Stability showing what effects these two attributes have. I start a push towards Ulm in Southern Germany. 18 Feb 1941: Also two minor offensives in Central Germany. The Germans don't have enough divisions to cover the entire frontline so I am taking advantage of it. H...

Allies - The Soviet Incursion in the Balkans -29 Jan to 15 Feb 1941

Image
29 Jan 1941: Nothing we can't handle. I do need to attend to the needs of the Empire though. Research has been completed on the QF 40 mm Bofors Anti-Aircraft Gun. I select the All-or-Nothing Armour Scheme next for the next generation Battleships. My Production chart for Army equipment. I doubled the production of Anti-Tank and Anti-Aircraft Guns. The War Summary. Comintern has 3 new East European countries. Fortunately they have no divisions and minimal Airforce. Greater Portugal is now just Porto plus a couple of African colonies which I am dealing with. 30 Jan 1941: Greece's Diplomacy chart plus the Focus Air Defence has completed. I select Britannia Rules the Waves next. I could use those bonuses. I send 1st Army, reinforced with half of Army Gibraltar, north to assist the weary Army Canada. 03 Feb 1941: The remainder of Army Gibraltar is assigned to a portion of the Balkan Front to the south of Army Macedonia. Now we have to wait for the two Armies to arrive. Comintern ...
