Good luck to all participants. Lets have some fun!

-------------------

Germany's opener is typical, although she experienced no losses. Her wolf pack surprises and destroys a Canadian transport in the Mid Atlantic. Denmark is violated and, of course, Poland is invaded.

Stalin watches the Wehrmacht's Blitzkrieg and orders his Generals to study this new kind of warfare. Meanwhile the Chinese flee inland to defend their key cities. The world is no peaceful place anymore...

The turn was redone under 1.02 and sent to Lucky1.

The Wehrmacht consolidates in a defensive line against the massed French aggressors in the West. A wolfpack heads to Southern Atlantic (torn between the desire to visit Rio or Pretoria....).

Our brave pilots successfully damaged a German heavy Bomber with limited loss (after one German fighter shot down by AAs).
French decided not to waste ammos in counter-attack and saved supplies were sent to Chinese partner.

Status: offline 		Hitler is furious -- how can two AA units can brave the might of the Wehrmacht to damage a fighter squadron outside Brussels? He suggests that certain officers resign in disgrace. (Kudos to Ning for demonstrating this little gem in AAR; a canny move - the AA get to fire first, before arty or air). Germany has the last laugh, though. France falls with one damaged armour.

Il Duce, emboldened by the obvious operational superiority of German military doctrine, decides that Italy cannot stand for the British blocade of her Mediterranean colonies. Hitler immediately transfers aerial units to Naples to assist in clearing the way. A lone German wolfpack enters the med in search of easier pickings (England has implemented convoys - i.e., all transports in range are doubled-up). None are found.

Japan, Spring '40: Japanese bombers hit some rail and a factory. The other forces continue to twiddle their thumbs.

Nothing to report except maybe 5 Japanese HBs pointing towards a major air offensive against China. through lend-lease AA guns were delivered to Chunking.

As Italy declared war to us in a wrong time, WA attacked Ethiopia and blocked Med. Desperate Italian retreated to Lybia and seems they were out of supply---probablely Hitler don't want to pay much for North Africa.
With successful anti-sub warfare a veteran German submarine was sunk near Spain.

Yugoslavia is cowed into submission; Hungary, Rumania and Bulgaria all see the wisdom of joining the Axis cause.

Status: offline 		Rumania, Bulgaria, Hungary and Greece all see the wisdom (Greece needed prodding) of joining the awesome Third Reich. Germany engages in some troop redeploment and development of infrastructure.

Mussolini, still smarting from the loss of his vacation home in Tripoli, is promised a tranche of Greece along Albania. He is further mollified when Hitler explains that after the war, the North African territories will be ceded in the surrender agreement. As such, Italy will have saved a few years in their administration.... That said, the Duce is concerned by the large allied concentrations in the Med and in Malta...






EDUCATIONAL NOTE: Ning has a transport in Malta that he is able to used to transport troops to the island. Because Malta is an island port, Ning can use the transport to move troops in or out of Malta AND retreat the transport back into port on the same turn, where it is sheltered by the two AA. A nifty trick that is explained in the manual somewhere....

Not too much to report. TLC rails were bombed to give Germany some difficulty when drawing back their tanks.
We will have peace with Germany until our super weapon is ready. But if our enemy is doing the same thing...
