So now the summer is almost over and Germany have yet to cross the Pyrenees. I got a bad feeling about this.
If Germany does declare war on Spain I say that it is time for USSR to move all its forces to the German border and make an attempt to break the pact while Germany is occupied in Spain.

Yes it's not looking great is it? I think not declaring Vichy should be considered if the Germans get off to a flyer against France, otherwise.....

The Axis have caught a break with the weather this impulse - they need to make use of it.
The Luftwaffe attempt four air strikes - Nantes, Toulouse, The British Army between Bordeaux and Bayonne and the French 10th Infantry west of Toulouse.
The He-111 bomber over Nantes excels himself - but this is not the key hex!

To Southern France now and its a 3:1 +1 on the Blitz table.
Its a 4(5) [&:]. The Germans lose a unit and are disorganised. The only good news is that the British are also destroyed as they cannot retreat. But that attack has pretty much sealed the Germans fate....

And Toulouse still holds. Vive La France. I think the USSR are in a very good shape by now, aren't they? Two whole years to build up the army and the airforce... Have they grabbed Persia yet? If not, it's about time to do so in the upcoming winter months...
The CW has got losses, that's for sure. But on the other hand, time is slipping away for Germany very, very fast...

My AAR shows what happens when the Germans attack Spain too late. At least in my game, the Germans had time to conquer Spain in '41. In this game, they won't. If I were the Germans, I would leave Spain alone now, swing over to Russia, and try for a '42 Barbarossa. It might work; going for Spain at this point won't. Also, a Vichy declaration now might mean there is no Free France, as there is no place for the French navy in France.

I think I agree. Declare Vichy and see what happens with the Free French. If they aren't created, that's very good for the Axis. Spain in 1942 is a very difficult thing, because it's got more units to build up a good defense. Especially if the CW can assist with the airforce and the USSR build up the forces in the common border, Germany won't have the forces necessary to conquer Spain and keep the Russian bear in it's cage...
