It would be awsome if the US had like 100 div and the UK 50 div just waiting in India for you to come and push you right back into Berlin

I don't think that is the case. They are most likely having holiday at Midway or something.
or the azores, i quite like the azores, and you need it for portugal to be annexed
The German tide can never be stopped, as even the Kriegsmarine got by the heavy Royal navy and USN to get to the Med. Now it's just a matter of time.

I bet he will run out of patience before annexing USA
in this scenario they start with unholy amount of ships and that is force that cannot be denied.
He would also have to deal with partisans that make the french resitance look like girl scouts
freebirdcjb - Thank you and welcome
Baneslave - Yes but progress is slow in these areas.
Murmurandus - I could if I switched sides
ColossusCrusher - Now why would I cross the Atlantic
Cpt Rossi - Intelligence reports tell me that Britain has 132 divisions and the U.S. 129. They have enough to do it but are too commited elsewhere.
Reado - I am considering sending the Kriegsmarine on a short visit to the Azores to see if it is defended.
Panzer6 - The Kriegsmarine took no diverse route either. They sailed right down the English Channel to get to Gibraltar. I guess they are all busy with Japan.
Edzako - I have faith in my SHBB's. The mighty American fleet will sink.
Cpt Rossi - The U.S. is likely to be the last country alive so I won't be concerned about partisans at all

1100 January 25th 1946.
18. Armee Headquarters. Mellila, Morocco.
Von Rundstedt now had more than forty divisions of Heeresgruppe West in Morocco with more arriving daily. The kriegsmarine was still encountering no opposition to its ferrying activities and the forces in Morocco were quickly regaining organisation.
Model and Reinhardt were both recovered sufficiently to continue their advance. Von Rundtsedt gave the orders they required and Model executed them.
He was to head south, down the Afrikan coast, towards the captured Spanish territory of El Aauin. Auchinleck would try and stop him but had little chance. The American garrison was soon captured and the British commander moving away from Casablanca.

Panzerarmee (Italy) Headquarters. Nasariyah, Iraq.
The arrival of Barckhausen and XLVII. Armeekorps in Karbala had given Rommel the forces he required for the next advance. Orders were sent to Barckenhausen and von Kuchler to begin an attack on the Syrian capital of Damascus.
Nineteen German infantry divisions proceeded to advance towards the twelve Syrian divisions defending the province.
Von Kuchler had the numerical advantage and at 1300 hours he achieved a tactical advantage by encircling part of the defences of Damascus.
Seven hours later, at 2000, he ordered an assault to keep the pressure on the defenders overnight.
The battle would continue all night and over the next day, with von Kuchler slowly overcoming the stubborn defences.

The Skies Above Southern Persia.
Air General Milch was currently providing air cover over southern Persia when he encountered enemy bombers.
The British Strategic bombers were not happy to see him and suffered for their entry into his airspace.

Von Rundstedt had a small problem that he needed dealt with. He asked Saalwachter if he was confident that he could traverse the west African coast. Saalwachter offered no guarantees but would do what von Rundstedt asked of him.
Model was heading towards El Aauin but von Rundstedt was not sure he would arrive before Allied forces did. He tasked Saalwachter with transporting General Straube and V. Armeekorps to the province. Saalwachter safely delivered the troops before heading back to Malaga for more troop transfers.

Panzerarmee (Italy) Headquarters. Nasariyah, Iraq.
The battle for Damascus raged on during the 27th with von Kuchler making slow but steady progress.
By 1400 hours it was clear the defenders could not hold for much longer. The defenders had fought bravely nonetheless.
At 1600 hours von Kuchler had amassed enough desert combat experience to be singled out as above average in the execution of such combat.
The Syrians still held their defence at 0300 hours on the 28th but would retreat with the new dawn sun barely risen in the east.

IV. Panzerarmee Headquarters. Mashhad, Persia.
Von Manstein was recovering in Mashhad when he received news from Nehring of his arrival in Chah Bahar.
The British immediately counter attacked the advance with the inital reports indicating an even battle.
Daylight proved that the battle was a little less even than previously thought. By 0600 hours Gort found himself outnumbered and outgunned by Nehring, von Hubicki and Steiner.
By 0900 hours the results of the battle were becoming obvious and Gort chose to break off his attack. Persia was now sealed off from British forces in India.

Model sent word to von Rundstedt of his arrival in Casablanca. He also informed him of his further advance south towards Mogador. Model had a job to do and he was moving swiftly to accomplish it.
The unfortunate commander in Model's path was, once again, Auckinleck. He retreated fairly quickly with no chance to halt the advancing armoured divisions of Model.

18. Armee Headquarters. Mellila, Morocco.
Von Mackensen had arrived in Mostaganem and was ordered to continue his advance east.
The American garrison division in Algiers could not stop him and was captured after a brief battle.

18. Armee Headquarters. Mellila, Morocco.
Von Rundstedt received word from von Brauchitsch of his arrival in Marrakech. He was ordered to continue south into Ouezzane. Von Salmuth had also arrived in Oujda.
The battle for Ouezzane was quickly over with more American garrison troops captured.

General Konrad had given command of the German mountain troops to Schorner while he rested his own forces.
General Schorner sent word to von Manstein as soon as he arrived in Bandar Abbas.
Von Manstein sent a message to von Ribbentrop as soon as heard the news.
The message was to the point.

Model continued to advance with minimal opposition. He had already reached Mogador when he ordered his troops south once more.
Auckinleck was no longer ahead of Model and the already tired Brazilian tank division trying to prevent his advance, was beaten with little trouble. Model was making rapid progress to link up with Straube in El Aauin.
Well, in my game the US has 50+ carriers and growing.
I have four nukes and growing.
I intend to research ICBMs in 1947-48.
I then intend to collapse the bastards.
That will be the biggest encirclement ever. All of North Africa...

are you attempting to encircle US troops there or can they escape on transports?
ColossusCrusher - US has 23 carriers, UK 9 at the moment.
Fnuco - Actually I was not trying to encircle all of Africa, although it is a possibility I had not considered. It is a little dodgy trying to invade all over the African coast with only my one fleet. This area is a highway for Allied fleets, especially if they are trying to escape the Med.
Baneslave - Researching 1941 reactor tech for a level 3 reactor. Need a level 6 reactor for nukes. I can include all of my current research and already researched tech in the next update if you want as its a monthly update. Let me know as soon a spossible because the update is about ready.
Waiting for anything else people may wish to see before I update again

Ok, I will add a second post to the update to include it all for you
Working on indexing this thing as well, about half way through that right now.
