30. August 1940
France surrenders completely. This is fantastic news as it means we get all the French colonies. Perhaps we can argue that it was worth the loss of 3 submarines, the Allied fleets have been completely absent from the Med.
Germany orders the vonManstein HQ.

27. September 1940
With the conquest of France completed, Germany orders 4 new tank divisions and a rocket artillery.
The question is now how to garrison and protect the former French colonies. The furthest ones like French Polynesia are of course impossible, but perhaps we can secure most of the Mediterranean? Syria could be difficult but not impossible, and could further be used as a base for an attack on Egypt.
Japan keeps attacking the Chinese but do not make much progress. Orders a new tactical air unit.

22. November 1940
Japan is not doing too well against China and loses an army to Communist attacks.
Germany assaults an anti-tank unit in Jerusalem. Iraq joins the Axis.
Both the US and the soviets are alarmed by German advances in the middle east, not good news.

17. January 1941
Allied forces evacuate Egypt.
Africa corps is formed, but perhaps not for actual use in Africa. Germany abandons plans for attacks on Spain, preferring to keep it neutral. Spain is now 3% Axis leaning, Sweden 46%. The US is 54% mobilized, Soviets 48%. Plans for an attack on the Soviet Union commences.
Italy is tasked with garrisoning northern Africa. It would be good to seize Gibraltar, but at the moment we cannot spare the HQ/air-power.

German research is proceeding according to plan. We have not min-maxed tank research. It wouldn't hurt to get another level of naval weapons.

Italy struggles economically. Could use Command and Control and Naval Weaponry. Probably too late by now.

Japan is not doing great. Still missing crucial techs like anti-sub, anti-air and better fighters. One level of ground attack weapons would be very useful too. And another level of Spying...

Germany finally invades the USSR. The results are as expected. As usual, I mess up the fleet combat off Leningrad, sinking one CL but taking quite a few hits in the process. Soviets still have their SS and BB units.

6. June 1941
The remains of the Italian fleet and a German CA are eliminated north of Norway. My tradition of being very poor at fleet strategy continues.
Italy starts the advance into Sudan. It will be months before we approach Khartoum.
Heavy fighting on the Dnieper river slows the German advance in the south.
