The Channel Pact - Germany&UK Coop AAR

Directly after the declaration of independence, the British Empire declared war on their former colonies, attempting to resubjugate them. Unfortunately the great depression had severely crippled their military, and the Colonial Forces struggled to gain control. Supporting the dismemberment of the British Empire, the French declared a colonial war on England, and immediately sent forces to the fronts to support the partisans. After four months of warfare, the British military had no choice but to give up: A peace treaty was signed and England acknowledged the independence of it’s former colonies. All the newly independent nations joined an alliance led by France, known as the Allied States.
By 1922, France and the United Kingdom were mortal enemies, as France vied to further decrease the influence of the British Empire.

The Second colonial war, or the Jerusalem war, erupted in 1925 when France invaded Palestine without warning, attempting to occupy the British Middle-East. Fortunately, the Colonial Forces were better prepared this time around and managed to halt the French offensive in Jerusalem. The Jerusalem siege lasted for more than a month, after which the French forces were beaten back and forced to surrender. After their defeat in the Second Colonial War, the French vied for revenge, and let their eye fall on Egypt, and the crucial Suez channel.


The Third Colonial War, or the Suez War, started with a massive French invasion of the Nile Delta in 1927. British forces were stunned and quickly overrun by the French attackers, and France quickly conquered the northern part of Egypt. The French advance came to a standstill when they attempted to cross the Suez channel, where they were met with a superior British Force. While the battle in Egypt raged on, a leading member of the Parliament, Oswald Mosley, ordered a referendum to decide on the course of the war. Unanimously, the Parliament voted to break the French with brutal force, and the day after the entire British warfleet was sent into the Mediterranean to engage the French ships.

A massive naval war ensued, in which a young Admiral, Vincent De Nil, gained considerable fame: His fleet alone had managed to sink over 12 French Battleships, and destroy the French capital ship, the Heugin. A tactician of speed and concentrated firepower, Fleet Admiral De Nil often managed to outwit his French enemies and trap a large part of their fleet.​
