30 Jan 1941: We have completed Battleship Focus .... ....and I select Service Overseas next. For the Heavy Cruiser I use the 1940 Cruiser Hull as barebones. I give it the Cruiser Engine III and Cruiser Armour IV. I use the 8" Gun Heavy Cruiser Battery III and the E.III H 8,000lb Catapult. I add Radar II and Fire Control I. I use 2-pounder 'Pom-Pom' Anti-Air Batteries and Secondary Battery II (not the Dual-Purpose shown). It's not allowed. The finished design has 4 x Main Batteries and 2 x Anti-Air Batteries and its MIO is Cammell Laird. It uses a LOT of Steel so I import it from the USA. 01 Sep 1941: We are on the offensive on the Russian Front. 04 Feb 1941: Finland is again very enthusiastic. The Malaysian 11th Infantry Brigade has been deployed and I place it in training. My current Research projects. I still have to wait a while for a new Medium Tank and Submarine.

I create a second Transport Wing (the 33rd RAF) at Sussex. I also create 4 Air Wings in Königsberg and 3 Air Wings in Lwów. I also create 2 Fighter Wings in Northern Ireland.... ....and 2 Air Wings in East Anglia. That's deployed most of my reserves. My Ant- Air deficit is slowly reducing. 19 Jan 1941: The trained 1st Motorized Division is assigned to the Royal Armoured Corps. I commit the 77th Infantry Division to support a Finnish attack S. of Volkhov and it looks promising. 20 Jan 1941: Research has been completed on QF 6-pounder AT Gun.

Royal Arsenal receives the Trait Gun Mass Production . 22 Jan 1941: The attack was successful. I add an 11th Military Factory to Spifi...
