rules: norm/norm, fog of war off
It was january 1st 1936 when French president Laval entered the first government planing meeting of his presidency where he would reveal his "plan" to the ministers of the government.
Laval: bonjour gentelmen I will get right to the point, my plan, it is thus. we
appoint a leader to lead the government without the knowledge of the people a shadow ruler who will give us orders so as to appear that we are in power.
this man must be the best leader in france, a master of government, a man of unparalleled intellect and courage.
Random minister: but where can such a man be found?
Laval: I have found such a man
Random minister2: who?
Laval: he prefers to remain nameless but I can tell you this he is a genius he works for the government right now he is an engineer of unmatched ability
Random minister whose name is lost to history:is it really true were saved!
Laval: well its mostly true I might have exaggerated a little, he isn't actually an engineer
armaments minister: WHAT!
Laval: well he is majoring in engineering
other random minister: well than what is his job now?
Laval: he is an intern
Random minister#3: what does he do?
Laval: he makes coffee in fact he made the coffee that you are drinking now
random minister#2: this coffee is horrible
Laval: well then its a good thing we hiring him to run the great nation of france and not make our coffee right?
Everyone: RIGHT!!!
minister of intel: great plan! the world will marvel at France!
minister: yes I agree he should start today!
everyone: YES!!
very minor government official whos in the wrong room: what you can't be serious!!
Laval: what what who are you? your not supposed to be in here
very minor government official who's in the wrong room: oh I'm jaques I'm with S9 department were in charge of controlling the manufacture of souvenir mini eiffel towers
Laval: what?
very minor government official: oh yes were very important
minister of intel: he's a spy lets shoot him!
everyone: yes!
BANG!
Laval: well let me bring in our new awesome leader!
in walks in a young man who looks at each minister in turn as if he is looking into their souls. the young man wanting to impress his new employers starts giving a stirring speach in their native launguage. Bonjour, je suis une arbre ( hello I am a tree) he then shouted reaching towards them with one hand: gens de france donne moi votre voisin ( people of france lend me your neighbor) then putting a fist over his hart he very solemnly declaired: nous allons ensemble a la bibliotheque! (together we will go to the library) then shaking his fist in the air he yelled ou est moi le parapluie!! (where is my umbrella)
his speach whent down in history as one of the greatest, it helped to gain the confidence of the ministers, after the speach they started planing the future of France.
well the unnamed man said the first thing we must do is increas the industy of this country every provence must be improved we also must start extending the maginot line all the way to the ocean. lets also give our scientists money to start developing a basic medium range multi purpose fighter and a basic tactical bomber, and then if there is anything left try and develop a electromechanical computer.
Ministers: great Idea!
shadow ruler: now lets talk about the army we must organize! we have troops scattered all over france we must organize them and put them on the boarders with germany and italy but mainly germany. and appoint leaders
minister of army: right sir
the armys of francer were moved into the maginot line with a couple of armies placed in the mini maginot on the boarder with belgum then 2 smaller armies on the boarder with italy
april
minister of intl: sir we have made some progress with the development with the bombers and fighters and we have some spare money what should we spend it on?

minister of Navy: right away sir
