Tunisia under siege!
The Battle for Tunisia has begun. After British forces broke through in Algiers earlier this year, we organised a strategical retreat into Tunisia. However, it seems that our forces are even too few to hold this small front. Our forces are once again at danger of being outflanked, with Kassarine under heavy British fire.
Our forces have hardly any organisation after the long way from Algiers to Tunisia and they are outnumbered. They have better equipment, but the weather is in favour of the attackers. After 2 weeks of bitter fighting, Kassarine fell. A shipment of 6 more divisions has departed from Marseille, which is expected in Tunis in the next 4 days. However, it is uncertain If these divisions will be enough to turn the tide, and the French Navy has been put on stand bye to evacuate Africa If necessary.
The British have launched a suprise landing in the Soviet Republic of Korea! They landed at 4 beaches at once, occupying the entire country in less than a week. Soviet forces in the region were still on their way back from Germany, so the Korean garrison was severely underpowered and understrength. But the Soviets are moving onto the region with a large mechanized force, ready to bestow the first major defeat upon the British in this War of the Capitalist Coalition.
The Greater Union presented an ultimatum to the Republic of Spain, to allow us to pass through their country to seal Gibraltar or, or to pay the price. After 7 days we received no reply, so the French Army intervened in Republican Spain. The Spanish soon fell to the French military might, but the Nationalists of Spain still stand between us and our treasured price: Gibraltar.
Initial invasion plans of Republican Spain.
In the meantime, the combined armies of the Socialist Kingdom of Sweden, the Republic of France and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics assembled near the Polish border, ready to accomplish the first stage of the "International Deal"...

Speed is essential for war.
In the glorious month october of the glorious year 1937 we were expanded with one of the strongest countries in the world.... Albania...
After Albania joined us we started 'Operation Cheetah': the Fall of the Baltic states
November 1937:
Soviet Message spreaded throughout the whole SU: "Starting from today we are at war with the Baltic States, who refused to join us peacefully, we will not stop the fighting until they lay down their arms"
The Baltic states gave more resistance then we'd thought and it took 2 weeks before the first fell
Estonian forces were spreaded out and were allowed to regroup by the glorious Red Army so we could annihilate all of our foes at the same time.
The Lithuanians were because of the delay DoW'ed 2 days after Estonia fell,this resulted into a charge into Lithuania that would complete the preparations of "Operation Flying Dragon"
During 'Operation Cheetah' we also prepared for 'Operation Flying Fish' the counterstrike into Korea
Shocking news was also brought,more for the allies than for us,but still...

I think they can guess what our next step is, for it is clearly visible on that last screenie ;D
Tunis has been captured!
So far for the bad news from Africa. The good news is that our front has stabilized, and new divisions are being ferried in every week. Another 9 German divisions are waiting in Marseille to be shipped out, a Swedish corps is on the outskirts of Lyon and 21 new armoured divisions are almost finish, of which 12 are going to be shipped to Africa. If the British want to win Africa, they'll have to strike quickly. The Italians in Zuara are also, very suspicious according to our intelligence, building up their forces.
While planning our next move in Africa, bad news reached us from Moscow. The capitalist bastards of the "so called United" Kingdom have landed capitalist commandos near Moscow, who have incited the Russian people with capitalist thoughts which encouraged them to spread revolution against us! The Soviet government was forced to flee to Leningrad, but the blow is only temporarily: the Soviet Army is on its way to crush the rebels and to execute the British bastards who unleashed this upon the glorious Soviet Union. Some "neutral" countries say that the revolt wave is actually caused by unrest over the Soviet Union's latest military action, but the International has deemed this to be unrealistic capitalist propaganda.
The last part of Phase I in our International Deal is nearing its end: the new borders of Central Europe are about to be drawn. Too bad Poland stood in the way, so they were forcefully convinced of the righteousness of our claims.
The new borders of Central Europe.
Now Phase I has been finished, we can concentrate on Phase II of the International Deal: the German liberation.
Wow. Did you edit your sliders? How did France and Sweden get involved in so many wars?
two hits to interventionism and you are in an alliance(Sweden)
it all started with Denmak where we had to fight not only Denmark but also the Axis (who DoW'ed us) and the Allies (also DoW'ed us) and whilst we were at it we decided to go for the whole of Europe
When in doubt use fire!
Let Operation Flying Dragon begin!
On 16 February 1938 we began Operation Flying Dragon, the assault on Poland,orders were simple conquer Poland, the officers could do what they want. (Stalin codenamed it 'Flying Dragon' because he wanted an intimidating name
) Some officers took the orders too litterary leaving some cities and villages in ashes,the first days the Polish offered heavy resistance,until the battle of Warsaw that is,Stalin ordered that 'there would be no PoW's in Warsaw',the 24y Korpus under Konev happily followed them
The battle of Warsaw,there would lots of casualties at the Polish side,the effectiveness of flamethrower-equipped tanks would also be shown here
The fighting would last until 13 march,when the Polish government accepted annexation under the terms that all the intellegentsia,officers and soldiers would be spared,Stalin agreed with that,having bigger problems on the home front,for partisans were rising up against the SU after he chose to spare his officercorps in the middle of a war. In fact when he made the call he and some soldiers were also defending the Kremlin,the rest of the governement was in Leningrad(yes, Stalin missed his plane and was fighting with only a pistol against hordes of partisans)
Also some countries wanted to show support for the Greater Union,some would also DoW the greater Union (Hungray)
and as you can see on the last picture operation Flying Fish was a huge succes.
giving France some more territory we thought... it would become FRG's
Italy adopted the Japanese technique of Kamikaze
Yugoslavia was scared...
Hungray thinks we're idiots
o
A new French puppet...
Next update the New operation: 'Operation Christmas Turkey'
Whats up with those operations?
Bet you make em up bcause your army sucks in every other way xP (Swedish nationalism FTW)
Bet you make em up bcause your army sucks in every other way xP (Swedish nationalism FTW)
Hungray,the victim of Hybris,asking US for OUR precious Leningrad,just when we arrived in the scéne,their offense was doomed,France came in from their back and before they knew it...this. The Romanian wrath would be unleashed on those provinces soon enough.
Italy,hoping for mercy,their fate slipped out of our hands,we pity them,but they deserve all what France planned for them.
Another exemple of France's growing power and we need to take all the beligerence,the world ain't interested in the truth,Sweden and France already divided the world and it would be WE who are evilness?,we free territories,not opress them...
Greece,we had to,they made a pact with the UK,now they are part Albania,part Soviet union and part Greece...but for how long?
Turkey,why did they convince Bulgaria into ignoring our plea's for peace? They had to pay,preferring war above giving Istanbul.Oh and that is the Turkey of Operation Christmas Turkey (Christmas stood for Bulgaria and Greece)
Persia joins the allies against Yugoslavia and thus against us, they also were one of the passages into India,but that's not important.
They had it all coming...
The turks annexed Greece,now the brave Greeks are Albanian and the Turks,they got what they deserved.
Another country annexed by the french
Eastern Europe how it actually shouldn't be.
2 countries for the people that suffered heavily under colonial or territorial rule...
INDIA HERE WE COME!
