80
January 1951
One more step a long the road to victory! A victory which at the rate of one province per month will take me... probably well over 100 posts : /
A brand new navy was ordered early in January, this will be the most advanced. Type X, I could research them further on but they are so advanced and I have several other areas that need the research. I can also announce that I have at long last begun research into submarines. It will be many months before any design will be constructed but no doubt they will rival any nation who has developed them. Sadly I can also announce that the aircraft carriers seen here were cancelled two days later when I realised I had jumped the gun as I have to wait till mid February for the last research to be completed.
Another advance in Oman. There was another one along the east coast but for some reason I failed to screenshot it.
And now to open up the third front! The Manchurians did not expect my arrival after a long cold war.
Two divisions are landed further south and are ordered to support to invasion.
This has an immediate effect on the landings.
A second landing this time on the east coast. It looks like it might have been a mistake however ordering 4 Tac south (whoever was their navigator should be shot because they flew through the centre of Oman and were intercepted!) to support the landings quickly swayed the battle in my favour.
An easy advance into Cerro Bertrand.
Unfortunately there were no cornflakes.
A battle that looked to be going badly was not nearly as bad as it was feared.
Two Galacian ships are caught out in the open. The battlecruiser escaped however was signifcantly damaged.
This has forced a division to be cut off, however this will not matter much as the VPs are not far away.
A suprisingly bloody (for the north) battle in the north. The Galacians continue to remind me that they are not yet defeated.
A third landing at Monte Leon!
Sadly the advance in the west of Oman still can not continue because the forces are still too demoralised. Why you ask? Because until the end of this month there was no infrastructure. However this does not matter too much as there has been progress in other areas. Yes the Galacian pocket still exists after well over a year. I have settled with containing them until Galacias inevitable surrender. Thankfully it is not a VP.
