Hi
 
I got it for the second time. I have already played this turn once though. I thought i had forwarded the nov 23d 1940 turn to Soviet union already. But i will do it again.
 
If it has been lying in my room for a week then i apologize. I will forward nov 23d to soviet again.

[Grymme]

I turns out i hadnt actually sent the nov23d turn to soviet union, so i will send it again. I had to open the turn i got from marco again so you will get a open twice message. But i havent actually played the turn twice. I have imediatly forwarded my old turn to Soviet.
 
So we shoult be on track again. Sorry for the screwup

- The Kreigsmarine reports a major engagement with the Royal Navy off the coast of Norway. Heavy casualties were suffered on both sides and no less then 5 British cruisers were sent to the bottom.
 
- In Greece elements of the 1st, 5th and Italian 1st Armies are fast approaching Athens. The enemies defensive lines have been breached and several Greek formations were overrun or isolated. British Naval forces have been active in the Med and are conducting bombardments against our advancing forces.
 
- Elsewhere things remain quiet as the heavy snows of Winter descend on most of Europe.

Turn sent to Japan.
 
- Ferocious naval battle continues to be waged in the Baltic. More ships from both sides slip beneath the icy waves.
 
- UK & Free French forces slowly push back our armies in Norway. It looks like they are majorly commited to the Northern campaign and they will eventualy drive us out. However, it has been a slow and costly campaign for them.
 
- Good news from the sunny Mediterranian, Athens has fallen to our victorious forces! Only a few scattered and shocked Greek forces remain active on the mainland.

BBC reports that it seems likely Britain will suffer a major naval defeat in the north sea. It seems the navy was caught on the way back to refuel. However the campaign to liberate Norway is expected to be finished in 2-3 turns. British industries is working 25/7 to mount the turrets of new battlecruisers to again regain the control of the seas.


No worries say Churchill. Our war industry is more than up to it. We might have to think about some new designs of our warships though.

In other news. A leak in the japanese defence department report that Japan might mount an major offensive against china in 2-3 turns. There is no way to confirm the news though.

Stalin stops the exchange of tankblueprints with the Germans. He cant believe they only produce toytanks.
Where the Russians thought they could sit out this war and rush in when UK and Germany would have fought eachother to death, they are now not so sure anymore. Defense preparations are made.

China news reports that light borderfights with the Japanese increase. More soldiers are called to arms to defend the country.

Reports for the month as follows:
 
  - The Kreigsmarine reports continued fighting with the British Navy in the Baltic. The Italian Navy also reports a minor victory against British forces in the Med. In all 2 British Cruisers and 1 Battleship were destroyed this turn, although at some cost.
 
  - In Norway,  British and French Expeditionary forces are besieging our forces in the city of Oslo. The Commander of the 4th Army has just been promoted to Field Marshal. We will not surrender the city, our fearless leader pronounces.
 
  - In sunny Greece, all that is left are final mop-up operations against Greek stragglers. Our tired forces enjoy a well deserved rest.
 
  - The German Minisitry of Youth, reports an outrage that our Soviet trading partners have renegged on thier agreement to exchange toy patents with the Reich. Our fearless leader proclaims that Stalin must be called to answer for this insult.... after all...it's For the Children.

The british teleprompters are spitting out major news. It seems a major allied victory has taken place in Norway. The combined forces of british, norway and free french units have taken Oslo after heavy streetfighting. Losses were moderate to high on both sides and in the end half of the german 4th army was forced to surrender. Fieldmarshall Falkenhorst declared after a week of imprisonment that he looks forward to some nice british tea and scones in the british prison he will spend some time from now on.
 
On the naval front it seems that britain has captured and defeated a major german wolfpack in the northern sea. 6 submarines were slaughtered at the cost of 3 british destroyers.
