March 1940 - August 1940
The New Roman Empire is born.
The Stalemate in the Egyptian desert south of Tel aviv was final ended after numerou battles. For some reason the UK commander retreated his army towards the suez sealing there fate. All up there were now 28-30 divisions trapped. In a series of battles that favoured the brave Italian armies, over 300,000 Allied troops surrerened at the battle of the Suez. Complete conquest of the Middle east is now only a matter or time.
The UK did try and send TP's to save it forces but they never made it in time. Uk airforces were reduced to operate from small airbases at long distances once tel aviv fell. Continious air raids on these airbases made it impossible for the RAF to mount any airdefence in the region, even though there planes were superior at present to our own, they were shot down in there hundreds.
Due to air superioty Naval bombers once again roamed were ever they pleased. Sinking 4 UK Battlesship in a large fleet in the red sea along with some cruisers, 3 South african TPs were also sunk before they could resuce forces at the Suez. Everwhere the UK turned it suffered defeat. The Saudis and Yemen were annex, half of Iraq has been conqered, Kuwait fell, soon Persia and beyond will come under threat. The Germans also launched there offensive into Greece which also submitted to axis domination at sessions end.
Another Good session for the Axis. If FDR ever enters this war, they have a long long way to push the axis back, if they ever can, which i doubt.
Also not sure if we are continuing our Tuesday game tonight or not, dont think it will last long anyway. So GK if your free turn up and see what happens. 7pm tonight either way.
