France - The Campaign in India (I) - 19 Apr to 30 May 1940

19 Apr 1940: The fighting has already begun.
27 Apr 1940: We have broken through their defences and have captured Ahmadabad. Two units are ordered to Bombay.
28 Apr 1940: Five divisions are encircled in that pocket and one more at the coast.
29 Apr 1940: A more detailed view of the pocket plus my Logistics chart. Much too much red.
01 May 1940: There will be no elections.
02 May 1940: The capital Bombay has fallen and I order 5th Cavalry Division to Hyderabad.
03 May 1940: The 5th Algerian Infantry Brigade covers its flank.
04 May 1940: I order 3 more units to advance on Hyderabad.
05 May 1940: I assign 5 Dockyards to the production of Merchants.
I create an improved version of the Richelieu class Battleship.
I give the two advancing units further targets in the south of India.
I select the event Rally the Leagues. I can absorb 3% loss of stability.
14 May 1940: Damn! My Stability dropped 13% - WTF? I give the Army Indochine a new goal because the new capital is Calcutta in the east.
16 May 1940: The big picture.
The end in South Indochine.
Capturing cities in the south.
20 May 1940: I order Army Indochine to Calcutta.
30 May 1940: The Popular Front appears to be very popular.
Maybe it is a bit too popular. I'm getting somewhat concerned. I need to send troops home to France.
