Tomorrow I will post about the fronts, with detailed information about each on of it. Peharps, that will be the last update before the New Year, anyway, I hope you are enjoying, see ya!
Wow I'm sorry, I feel like a hack. I'd no idea you'd used this in your AAR too -- I mean, that image of the Italians marching under that picture of Mussolini on the hills after beating the Ethiopians. :S
Great updates. Love the pics. And remember, slow progress is still progress. Great job. Rhodes is of no real consequence right now, especially if you close those pincers at suez. France may be slow, but it looks as if your doing great.
How did the allies pass through the Gibraltar Strait? you control Gibraltar, right?
Otherwise; nice advance, especially in the syria/lebanon/palestine area. How is Ethiopia doing?

Damn, it's really timeconsuming to read all this AAR's out there.

Operazione Casa del Veraneio
(South France offensive)
The front here is intact since November thanks to the strong winter of 1939 (and yes, HSR increases Winter penalties), so our brave armies don't have the strenght to push the Frenchs away.
However, the Germans begin to invade France and the Duce expects France to be no longer a trouble in the half of 1940.

Il Duce, Badoglio and Programma Tesoro became famous in international press
The war goes on...

Normally, I wouldn't be surprised about Italians retreating (in this case, from Morocco). But not this time, not when they're guarenteed to come back! Hurray! Avanti! Glory to Italy! (I should probably pay royalties to Myth for stealing those lines...)
