British fighters engage Spanish nationalist forces over the invasion fleet. There seems no good reason why they should be here and annexation looms for the nationalists anyway.

A slightly replenished British home fleet engages us again but with little chance of any real success. As usual they are sent packing but with only minor losses inflicted.

Operations on the Spanish front are now concentrated on isolating and destroying Spanish troops in the northeast. The infantry have arrived and are compressing the main Spanish force whilst armour with infantry support aims for the isolation. The proper completion of this operation should see the near total destruction of the Spanish army. Notice the state of the Spanish army which remains severely weakened from the civil war (not to mention obsolete).

The British launch a second counter-attack on our landing, which immediately fails. Their attack is probably weaker in firepower than our force even at face value and we have a massive armour advantage not to mention leadership and the like.

In Tarragona the Spanish have achieved an ambush. This seems quite undeserved given the two sides combat records but that Spanish field marshal has accumulated an immense amount of experience. He starts as a skill 4 field marshal but even so 83 experience as a field marshal is an immense amount of fighting, mostly attacking Barcelona and losing. Field Marshal Kastrioti on the other hand has a long string of successes.

Yet another sea battle, yet more British losses. German CAS bombers are now operating ground attack missions and beginning the slow elimination of the British army. The panzer transport fleet is returning to Ghent for more troops whilst the mountain army continues to land across the beaches.

The battles in Spain have all been won and now it is just a matter of movement. Somewhat slow for the infantry but the panzer corps should soon close up the pocket.

The original defenders of Dover are nearly gone. Ground attack forms an essential component of the strategy for the conquest of the UK since I will be unable to achieve the required manoeuvrability to achieve dramatic pocket creation.

242c0pe.jpg


23:00 June 25th 1939

Late in the evening we finally encounter some British fighters. I didn’t follow them but I am guessing this is a failed redeployment of a zero org group that is finding it very difficult to return home.

04:00 June 26th 1939

The British fleet returns for yet another engagement. I am impressed with the absolute consistency of performance from the Kriegsmarine with the enemy never once getting closer than 90 km in any battle I have seen so far. It is of course the ideal time of year for carriers and things may be a bit different when winter arrives with darkness and bad weather.

242c1mt.jpg


05:00 June 26th 1939

The panzer corps strikes across for Bristol in an obvious move to cut off the south coast defences. Forces in Dover an inadequate to occupy both provinces but new troops should arrive soon. The Panzer group has achieved a handsome combat advantage and should have little difficulty displacing these relatively low org British troops. Air support will soon arrive to press the advantage further.

At dawn a new campaign starts with the invasion of Yugoslavia. The numerous border battles are forgone conclusions and are soon all converted to victories. The only VP with any difficulty associated with it is Skopje in the far south.

Another Kriegsmarine victory with the British losing what must be a brand new battleship. The advanced name is suggestive of a lot of builds already completed. I think the British are getting through an awful lot of battleships.

03:00 June 27th 1939

The ever helpful foreigners (Yugoslavia now) send much needed air support to the UK. I’m still somewhat puzzled at this obsession of the AI with sending all the air power to the UK. The UK has good airfields but they are all massively over stacked already.

242crgi.jpg


09:00 June 27th 1939

We have caught another British naval bomber group. These are the only thing that the Kriegsmarine is afraid of (and not very afraid at that). They seem to have started buzzing around a little and this is definitely not a good idea with my level of fighter activity.

More German troops are ashore an supporting the attack on Bristol making our offensive even stronger and better able to defeat British troops inserted into the defences. Unfortunately all the east of England air power commitment has chosen London as a target resulting in massive over stacking so it is time to reorganise the air support.

This is the second British naval bomber group being caught out and taking serious losses. The badly depleted German fighter squadron has still not recovered from the first battle of the channel which seems to have happened so very long ago.

Congratulations on taking on the British coastal fortifications head on and winning! Soon I guess The British Islands will be occupied, any ideas on how large the occupying force will have to be to successfully repel an US on steroids?

I seem to remember that "Ambush" is an offensive combat event, but I might be wrong.

Still an excellent AAR!

Mein Kanitatlürer,

Ich must sincerely thank you for this chance for me and my men to prove our gallantry in the battlefield, after such a long pause. The whole division volunteered when someone was requested to do the jump without a parachute - we had 1 too few of those - and so we all jumped without those useless pieces of textile. Better still, none of us got hurt as our SHEER BRAVERY materialized under the bottoms of each of our men in the form of a pillow.
This proves that nothing is impossible for the feared&famous 3rd FallsJgD! Therefore, we would like to ask you for some more combat, if that's ok. Please, let our division figth with the rest of the invasion force against these damn Tommy's - we want nothing more than to pee at the feet of Nelson's statue as the conquerors of the (soontoberenamed)Londonburg.

Don't leave us to rotten in yet another god-forsaken airfield while our brothers in Heer gain all the glory!

Yours, from here to Eternity,

Mein Fuhrer, it is a great honor to be able to address you as our glorious forces near the English capitol.

I am pleased to report that whatever mental illness overtook the French has spread to the Slavs, Spaniards, and English. If the allies keep sending out their forces in foolish attempts to attack our glorious navy (as our magnificent armies close the net around their decadent capitol) then our boys in the heavens will keep sending their quaint model planes to the bottom of the sea.

While our situation is certainly looking excellent, I think that our Fuhrer should begin making arrangements for the occupation of Eire. It is our enemies, and not us, that are the colonial masters of the world's nations. However, we can not allow the den of thieves in Dublin to limit our strategic options in the Atlantic. Belgian and Dutch so-called neutrality was violated out of necessity rather than the greedy imperialism that the Soviet Devils accuse us of. So should it be with Eire's so called neutrality. We must deny the British the use of the Irish treaty ports and airfields. Additionally, Eire's airfields will allow our pilots even more range to assist our navy from the sky and its ports will allow our navy more freedom of action in the Atlantic.

It must be remembered that these backwards peoples in Eire are papists, loyal to the so-called spiritual authority in Rome. Should he ever decide to stab our Fuhrer in the back like his predecessor tried with Emperor Barbarossa, you can be certain that those filthy potato eaters would immediately launch attacks against our honorable soldiers. We can not give those vicious Celts any opportunity to cause us any heart ache or grief. They are the Poles of the Atlantic and must be taught civility by force, lest they get any ideas.

I eagerly await your orders, mein Fuhrer. Wherever you send me and our boys, we will make you proud. Your pilots control the heavens and soon all under the heavens will belong to you, mein Fuhrer.

Mien Fuhrer, Mien Fuhrer, a telegram from the front has just arrived!

Mein Fuhrer,
Mien Armeekorps and I would like to know our current disposisition and location, as we seem to be a little lost. We can't seem to find any land marks, as they seem to be a little flat. And the prisoners keep babeling on in this strange tounge that we have not been able to desciper. However, we have been able to realize one thing, and that is that when the enemy places a sign on a bridge that says "destroyed", you may still cross it. I recomend passing this vital knowledge on to commanders of other fronts.
Your lost servant,
Killer Bob
