I seriously recommend you retract the statement before someone closes this thread. We don't need to pay that aspect of the war any attention.

In terms of occupation policy, I'll promote collaboration. Germany cannot garrison such vast territorial gains with Germans alone, I personally will bear the mantle of a liberator, not a conqueror.
Done

Thank you. I of course don't mean to be pushy, I see a lot of threads close because of that kind of comment, and what we've got going is too good to be undone by a slip of the tongue :)

The Spanish Empire lays claim to its former colonies! However North America, Guyana and Brazil are yours to carve up.
The Führer would like, if possible, a few Caribbean islands, he hears the weather is particularly wonderful all year round, and would like to build a new bunker there :D

What of Africa their is much more to take than the north? Who gets what?
Of course Germany wouldn't object to reclaiming lost colonies in Africa, but the main prize we seek is South African holdings. Control of the Cape provides a new opportunity for the Wolf packs, as once we close the Suez, the allies will be forced to go the long way, where we will be waiting. After the war we simply want the diamonds for the girls back home :)

What of Canada they are of the British what is to be done with them ? They'll be the last vestige of British rule
The Führer desires nothing from Canada, and in fact sees them as a source of inspiration, for their loyalty to the Crown. Perhaps if we spare them, we can show the world we approve of this loyalist attitude, perhaps even inspiring our own peoples to greater heights of loyalty.

If they show ungratefulness I am sure they wont object to the future installment of a puppet regime.

If we v2 and ohka dc would that be enough to cause a surrender? Less men would die any invasion of the US mainland will be very costly
A full fledged invasion of course is the last resort. America is vast and its people stubborn, and may not falter even under such conditions. Still, under a complete naval blockade we could force them to the table or even lock them in a constant state of war from which they cannot break, keeping our own war economies at full production despite there being no real 'war' anymore.

Germany's only desire regarding the US is to either say out, or back out of the war swiftly, dealing with one Continental superpower will be enough... for now.

The ONLY thing we must be careful of is American nukes. If we can at least control the air, the people of Berlin, Rome, Tokyo and Madrid can sleep soundly.

Generalissimo Franco, welcome!
The Esercito surely has volunteers to spare for you!
On equipment I sadly can give you no other promise than we will send what we can spare.
Further more I support your claim on Gibraltar and your rightfull colonies.

Feldmarshall, concerning the division of Africa:
Italy issues no other claims other than the north of Afrika, the Horn of Africa and the middle east and Persia.
Should we however, find a power vacuum south of our african holdings and north of your South african holdings, the Italians wwould have no displeasure in filling that vacuum.
Concerning the soviets:
The Soviet lands are available for the german Reich and we would not infringe on the living space of our esteemed allies.

In return we would indeed ask Control of all mediteranean provinces (spanish provinces EXCLUDED of course) and our previous stated claims.

Gentlemen: Concerning America
The Regio Marina will provide cover for any landings on that continent should it be deemed neccesary.
Though I agree an invasion would be costly I think this can be reduced by first striking from the spanish colony of Mexico. After american troops ar drawn south a three pronged naval invasion could deliver the.. ah.. coup de grace if you catch my drift.

How long could you conceivably hold out is the question if you can not draw enough troops any invasion would eventually become an attrition nightmare their citizens are as fanatical as any of mine or the wherchmant

Sadly I know not the answer to this. Perhaps a bitter peace is the best...

Friends I fear we are, as the British say, counting our chickens before they have hatched. Should we really be planning for a victory against America when there is so much work to be done against the Russians, French and British? No matter how well organised we are, under good leadership the Royal Navy could render all of our plans obsolete.

The royal navy simply needs to be delayed by the Furher till we can reinforce I don't think the royal navy can stand up to the combined fleets of Japan and Italy

Could we not send spies to disrupt their research and halt any attempts for nuclear strikes]
Currently, I am not aware such measures exist. We could however focus on our encryption technology, to give us an idea if/when the nukes will arrive on the world stage.

Generalissimo Franco, welcome!

Whatever vacuum is left in Africa, Germany bestows first pick to her allies. Regarding the Mediterranean, we request be lent the strategic islands of Crete and Cyprus, for usage in wartime as a bastion for our Kriegsmarine and Luftwaffe. Of course, after the war, these will be returned to their new, rightful owner, Admiral.

The royal navy simply needs to be delayed by the Furher till we can reinforce I don't think the royal navy can stand up to the combined fleets of Japan and Italy
And contained it shall be, as we will be prioritizing the Kriegsmarine over the Luftwaffe.

Perhaps we might be, but you know us Germans, we obsess over planning :D
In all seriousness, as my original war goals stated, America is to be stalled, as are the Soviets, until we have dealt with the English, French and their vast colonies.

I for one surely intend for the Regia Marina to supplant the Royal Navy! And therby providing calm seas for the Germans to cross the channel under protection from glorious Italian ships!

I also agree to stalling as much as we can until we are ready. I do think that I will direct the Italian industry to focus on Naval and air production while trying not to let the army get under supplied.
