ORIGINAL: lion_of_judah Well, it appears the United Kingdom wants the American colonies back as the UK and America are in a state of war. Canadian forces have captured Buffalo and Boston and the Canadian navy has sunk several US navy subs off the Canadian coast. Now isn't that a turn of events, who saw that coming..... USA turn is now in drop box Short update and correction: It was GB who declared war on USA and sunk US destroyers near the coast of Ireland where they had been on patrol to protect the British islands against German subs. As surprize attack of Canadian forces against the New England states of USA caught US forces completely unprepared. USA was building up a powerful navy to defeat the Kreigsmarine in the Atlantic. USA was not yet prepared for a war on land. Bombers and dive bombers are few, medium tanks and guns as well. While soem divisions of marines were shipped across the Pacific the East coast was weakly defended by rifle infantry. Boston and Buffalo were overrun by two large infantry corps and a strong tank corps of Mathildas. Canada and GB must ahve prepared for long time for this surprize attack. But response was quick. In the west marines landed north of Vancouver. This turn they captured the city and its supply center. US infantry landed surprizingly at Halifax where the Canadian navy and air force were based - without any protection by a garrison. The whole fleet (several cruisers and destroyers), that has just celebrated a small victory over US navy, and all fighters (40 fighters) were destroyed.
