Finland Falls
September 2, 1941. Helsinki fell to Soviet hands two days earlier. Finnish Facist Leaders plead with the Soviet Union to allow them to become puppets in exhange for "independence". While the 500 payment in money was tempting, Stalin would utimatly decied the fate of ALL facists around the globe
In a radio adress broadcast on the 3rd of September, Stalin addressed all people:
"... The Axis will no longer be allowed rule Europe with its' dirty Tyrant hands. The Commenterm has now changed. We will no longer isolate our selves from the world. We will eliminate Facism and all those who join The Axis or any of facist alliance...", he paused to let these next words ring true, " from the world.... There will be no mercy shown. When you join a facist unholy alliance you lose the right to govern any nation, let alone yourselves, so in our generosity The Soviet Union will decied your fate for you."
A brief pause ensued and Stalin continued.
"We will liberate each nation who fell to facism one at a time, starting with Finnland. Yesterday morning they offered to join the commenterm, but we declined. We are firm in our assurance and resolve... facism must be elminated from the world. Nothing but absolute victory will be required..."
He continued to drone on.
His message was clear, Germany had awaken a sleeping giant bear, and that bear was now hungery.
Only two weeks into the "Red Winter Offensive" nearly all Finnish positions had been overrun. Victory was swift as mechanized and motorized forces overwelmed defenders and retreating divisions alike.
The IC gained from occupied finnland should be enough to make up for the IC lost to the Germans.
The question now was do we declare war on sweden, as they give Germany military access to fully liberate all of Scandinavia, or do we attempt to work our way around? With Sweden holding the keys to Copenhagen, and Germany, it was an interesting question to be had.
What do you all think?
I'm still at least a year from having a decent naval bombing force and 3 from having a decent navy.
