UK - Home Front and Preparations For a Russian Campaign - 22 Apr to 01 May 1940

22 Apr 1940: Research has been completed on Improved Oil Processing....

....and I select Fuel Refining III next.

The French lose a Merchant in the Straits of Malacca.

I order UK Fleet 1 back to port.

25 Apr 1940: The Focus Commonwealth Ties has been completed....

....and I select British Commonwealth Air Training Plan next.

I transfer the Carriers HMS Ark Royal and HMS Illustrious as well as two destroyers to UK TF 3 in Northern England.

I conduct War Propaganda against Russia.

The factors currently affecting my War Support.

I import Aluminum from France, Greece and Yugoslavia. 

That is good news.

I cancel Chromium imports from Yugoslavia,

I've just realized that I two Spitfire production lines and one is producing the basic model. I can upgrade them later. Together we are producing almost 2 Spitfires per day.

My Construction queue.

30 Apr 1940: Nothing surprises me any more.

01 May 1940: The Diplomatic Ledger for the Netherlands. Nothing exciting there.

Most of 1st Army's divisions have finally reached Turku and I ship them to Memel in Lithuania.

If I take too long the war in Russia may be over before I get involved.
