Turn 13 sent.  Rome captured.  Italy down to Tirane and Tripoli

Italy is over as an European power, and also as a naval power. Forces in Albania and Lybia still could resist for a few months. The Italian Army performed poorly against the French forces, with a casualty rate close to 1:3. The war in the sea was very different, as the Regia Marina fought against overhelming odds, and was able to inflict significant losses to enemy ships, including about 70 destroyers, 2 carriers and half dozen cruisers...

Turn sent.  Greece joins France.

With Greece now being controlled by the french, and with the Soviet Union attacking Rumania, it seems that Turkish might can only be achieved by attacking Rumania as well. A full scale operation is launched, and in the first month of the war, Turkish troops have nearly surrounded Bucharest...

Although not invited the Sovjet Union declared itself guest in Rumania and moved in.

Norwegian communists have taken control of the country and signed a treat making Norway a member of the glorious Sovjet Union.

Ireland has asked to be included in the Greater Reich, in order to get some protection against the so called democracies aggressiveness.[:D]

Turkish High Command is ecstatic! Both Bucharest and Constantia have fallen! The war with Rumania, may be over before it even seems to have started.

Spanish High Commmand is proud to announce that Portugal is now part of Greater Spain.

Turn sent.  French forces capture Albania. 

Turn 20:

Russia sent a DoW to Britain and landed a small infantry division near Belfast.

Russian air recon spotted around 13 British subs and some battleships near Hamburg. An attack against Royal Navy failed.

Due to some very suspicious moves by the french military and the British Navy, Greater Spain is now at war with both these powers. This was done very reluctantly as the powers that Greater Spain faces are more powerful than Greater Spain.
An initial assault on Gibraltar failed, but other than that forces are moving ahead at the pace of the infantry.

Well, with France at war with Spain and Turkey, Germany sees a window of opportunity. A small offensive in the French border inflicted moderate losses to the French forces, while our own losses were small.

Turn sent.  Diplomatic situation looking pretty tough.

Turn sent.  Britain and France now stand alone against Spain, Russia, Germany and Turkey.  Feels a bit light the Napoleanic period.  Most of the action was against the Germans in the Netherlands and Southern Germany / Austria.  Captured Salzburg.  Trying to contain the Turks in the Balkans and the Spanish in the West.  

Irish troops captured Belfast, we wouldn´t be doing that bad against the French and British if were not for French wonder wepons, they have some fighter bombers able to fly at 700km/h...not to mention their 4 engine bombers.
This will be fixed in the next version[:D]

Turkish troops march into Budapest and Belgrade, the front is moving very fast in Syria where the French have decided to withdraw from the border. Standstill in Greece where the French have overpowering airsuperiority.

On the Spanish-French front there has been a few skirmishes, and Toulouse is now in Spanish hands.

Turn sent.  War against Germany going well.  I am giving ground to Turkey and Spain.  Not a strategy but just of function of where the troops were when the fighting started. 

Turn24:

Russia declared war on Poland and took Vilnius

On the Greco-Turkish front, Thessaloniki has fallen, another turkish victory.

In Spain, the British colonial forces stationed in Gibraltar, have been defeated.

Turn sent.  Loss of Gibraltar is tough as GB not longer has a foothold on the continent.  France / Spain front appears stabilized.  Captured Frankfurt in the center.

Turn sent.  Airpower is able to neutralize Turkey and I launched a landing in Northern Syria to cut off the Turkish forces.  Continued to inflict good casualties on Germany and stabilized front with Spain
