[Ragnarum]

Benomia would like to know if Ragnarum is interested in purchasing M39 FAWS rifles. We are willing to offer a discount for being a long-time ally of Benomia's.

We will take a look at them, but we do have our own DKB36 rifles.

What are the specs of those? We might be interested in aquiring manufacturing rights as we are currently looking to modernise our equipment.

[The British Gumpurt]

France:The French scramble to form some sort of army. They have managed to get some artillery and armoured vehicles loaned from Britain. Britain will not be directly involved in the war but has offered to help us out.

USA: As the French are a good ally of Britain, who is a good ally of us, and France is a ally with us as well, we don't want it to succumb to German rule. Again. Like Britain we wish not to be directly involved in the war but we are lending them $1,000,000,000 ($15 billion in today's money), also because we prepared for such a large war with Russia, we have a lot of excess vehicles just sitting in a court yard waiting to be used. We are loaning them a large amount of Artillery, tanks, planes, bombers and fighters. Of course they will have to pay for them.

France: We have set up a sort of defensive line. As the Germans and the Russians have already entered France, we have set the line far enough back for us to brake. We will only really retaliate when the American cargo gets here in a week or so.

Here is some of our latest small arms and stuff

DKB36A2 - 7.78x45mm, assault rifle, 30 round magazine.
DKB36A2LS: 7.78x45mm, LMG, 30 round mag or 75 round drum magazine

MG37 - GPMG - 7.78x57mm, 70 round mag/belt fed.

RFR35A2 - 7.78x57mm, battle rifle, 10 round detachable magazine (or 20 round mag, becoming more common)

The Ragnarans elite tank division breaks off from the main assault and simply walks directly through the Netherlands and Belgium, with their permission or not is not yet known. This should get the jump on the French as they will not be expecting an attack from this angle. The DB36 dive bombers carry out sorties against French ground targets and supply lines.
They should be able to get the jump on the French, not expecting an attack from this angle. The Scythe tanks are greatly superior to anything the French can wield and probably better than anything the British can supply too, but the American tanks may cause some problems.

[BOS Capital Chapter]

Eleit German Panzer divisions storm deeper into France while bombers target strategic railways and outposts. 3rd Panzer division and 6th Paner division break off to assist the Russian Tank Division heading into Belgium and the Netherlands.

[Kannap]

The Spanish fleet moves in for the kill. Over 100 Spanish bombers were deployed against the Italian capital of Rome and delivered their payload of bombs atop the city, mainly targeting ships and government buildings. Upon the return of the bombers (Which saw 40 casualties), the submarines moved in, further into Italian waters with the battleships, cruisers and transports close behind. The army at Morocco crosses the Strait of Gibraltar and lands on the other side, opening fire on the Italian lines.

The past year has seen a massive surge in the numbers joining the Spanish armed forces with over 3,000,000 men in the ground forces alone. All across the nations, the construction of thousands of aircraft, ships and armoured vehicles has been ordered with hundreds rolling off the production lines every month. While 100,000 are being sent off to bring order to the colonies, 2,000,000 soldiers are poised in Malaga with several hundred transports. 60% of the navy has been moved to the Mediterranean, mainly consisting of aircraft carriers (2), submarines (79), battleships (2), battlecruisers (7), light cruisers (32) and destroyers (83). They are beginning to move towards Italy with an army of 400,000 on transports.

The Italian fleet, consisting of 95 submarines, 20 battleships, 100 destroyers, 5 aircraft carriers, and 50 battlecruisers meet with the Spanish navy and begin to battle back. Bombers begin to bomb the ships while fighter planes defend against any aircraft the Spanish may get into the air. Meanwhile, bombers from Morocco fly with the protection of fighters and begin bombing runs on major Spanish cities in Spain and Portugal.

In Morocco, the 85,000 Italian troops stationed there are holding off the Spanish advances. The tank divisions are giving the Spanish a hard time, since there are 1,000 tanks in Morocco to use for battle. Troops in Algeria and Tunisia are also preparing for war.

Troops in Saudi Arabia (Which has been taken by Italy, Ragnarum, for map purposes) invade Spanish owned Qatar. The Italians send in large tank division numbering 850 tanks total alongside 90,000 troops.

[Ragnarum]

A large contingent of the Ragnaran navy along with submarines are sent to patrol the coast around France. They plan to stop the American cargo ships containing the tanks before they reach the frontline. Meanwhile, Frigates move in to blockade the French ports.

Some SB55 bombers are sent to the airfields in Germany, they should help in the effort.

OOC: I'm going out in a minute, I'll be back to take my turn in the war again soon.

WAR, WAR EVERYWHERE.

Ok so,

France: Thanks to American intelligence, they have a vague idea of the Russian attack through Belgium and the Netherlands. They dont direct a full defence on that side but prepare for some kind of battle. The Artillery they have are trying to do the best they can, not by raining down shells, but by strategically pick off tanks 1 by 1. They are praying and hoping the American tanks and planes will get here so they can put up a real fight. Frances tank devisions are being put to flank a German army to the left side. We have the element of surprise and stealth. We hope to knock out a German tank column. The French Navy has been sent out to counteract Russian Subs. Infantry are holding the line. Men are getting more and more anxious that Germans or well equipped Russian could come over the hill any minute. The one good thing, our supply routes, even though being bombed from Russians, are holding out extremely well. We ask Italy for any support possible, and Spain. We need Your help.

America: The government have only just "Woke up" to the size of this possible war. Technically WW3 has started. We are on shaky ground with the Russians, but feel there is not threat of a major war between our two countries, unless they tread on our interests. With acknowledgement, (Secert service in Russia, and come on, we knew it was going to happen) of the Russian attempts to stop cargo getting to France, we are splitting up the cargo ships to try and confuse the Russians on where we are.

As America being the second, or biggest power in the world (Depending on how you measure it), we feel we will have more of a impact saying this than anyone else.

To the German leader: If you carry on your aggression towards France, we will take the side of France and stop Europe being ruled by Germany a third time.

Benomia: Before you say American neutrality, yes i know all about that, but i think it would be more interesting, also if Germany wins, for a third time in this RP history most of western Europe will be owned by the Germans. WW1, our technically WW2 with NAR in i think 1936, and this possible WW3. So ya know. Whatever.

[Renetopia]

The Balkan Army pushes through Kurdish-populated areas of Persia, although at a cost. Around 1000 soldiers from both sides died in battle. The areas are secured, and fully added to the Balkan Federation (which isn't so Balkan-y anymore, but I'm not changing the name).

(Please add the West Azerbaijan, Kurdistan and Kermanshah provinces of Iran to the map)

Meanwhile, as the world's powers set off to France, the Balkan Navy sets off to Monaco.

America: America has now had a 4-5 year period of extreme growth, this year growing by 6.1%. We have now undoubtedly got the biggest economy in the world.

The American population reacted extremely badly to the new of the U.S possibly going to war with Germany. They had major protests outside the white house. There reasons being, 1. They are simply bored of fighting the Germans, they don't want to fight them again. 2. Going to war with Germany could mean going to war with Russia. They simply do not want to go to war with Russia. 3. It is none of our business.

The Government took this into account and has decided we will not be going into war in Europe. But what we have decided (with the populations approval) is to carry on funding and supporting the French with equipment and money.

France: Absolutely devastated hearing the Americans are not joining the war. We need supplies and help now. We are only getting small amounts of equipment from Britain, and our army is under equipped. Despite that fact, the line has not halted the enemies advance, but has slowed it hopefully enough for the American Equipment to get here and either set up another defensive line or hold this one even stronger. More intelligence suggests that the attack from Belgium will be on a larger scale than we anticipated. The 19th and the 22nd Infantry division along with 3 artillery divisions and a armoured division are going north up the line to set up a strategic defence.

[The Ruivan Empire]

With the new war raging in Europe the Empire declares it's neutrality in the new conflict.

Further we have finished construction of our new Arrowhead-class carrier with another 5 ordered for immediate construction along with a crash course naval force building 20 destroyers, 15 cruisers. 10 battleships, 9 battlecruisers, 50 submarines. Until further notice the Empire will continue to increase the size of its navy, while construction of more armored and artillery forces are ordered as conscription is ramped up.

New tank design.

[spoiler=IAF 133 "tomcat"]manufacturer: Imperial Motor division.
Weight: 65 tons
top speed: 65 miles an hour
Main armament: 1 60 MM cannon
secondary armament: 6 anti infantry machine guns 2 in back 2 in front 1 on each side.[/spoiler]

65 tons and 65 MPH?! Cars couldn't do 65mph in these days, and the Challenger 2 doesn't even way 65 tons, and it can't even do 65 mph!

This is what France kind of looks like now:



As the US is now the country with the biggest economy we are investing heavily in our Navy. We have ordered many new Carriers (Numbers confidential) many more subs, and many more destroyers and battlecruisers. We want the largest Navy in the world. A example of our new Eagle- class carrier:

USS Eagle:
Displacement: 62,000 tons
Speed: 21 knots (roughly 19 mph)
Range: 26,000 miles.
Aircraft: 60-70 Fixed wing Aircraft.

France: Hearing the of the invasion of Monaco, we have asked Britain to help us defend it, but they weren't interested. We turn to the Americans, can you send down a small fleet to protect it?

America: Even after the population said no, we are sending a small task force of subs and 2 carriers down to Monaco to deter the Balkan Federation from invading.

[Ragnarum]

A lot of the cargo ships where caught by the Ragnaran navy and then sent back. Unfortunately for us a few manage to seep through. However, more Heavy tank destroyers are being sent to the frontline, they should be able to knock out the limited supply of American tanks rather easily.

Thanks to American intelligence, they have a vague idea of the Russian attack through Belgium and the Netherlands. They dont direct a full defence on that side but prepare for some kind of battle. The Artillery they have are trying to do the best they can, not by raining down shells, but by strategically pick off tanks 1 by 1.

Men are getting more and more anxious that Germans or well equipped Russian could come over the hill any minute. The one good thing, our supply routes, even though being bombed from Russians, are holding out extremely well. We ask Italy for any support possible, and Spain. We need Your help.

The SB55 bombers begin attacking the main French artillery positions that are firing on the Ragnaran tanks, the tank divisions keeps pushing constantly along the Northern coast in massed formations that cannot really be effectively stopped by infantry alone. The A60/105 Spatha tank destroyers are having a field day knocking out French infantry positions and tanks with their 90mm and 105mm guns.

The Ragnaran carrier fleet sent down to the French coast alongside the submarines is preparing itself for a battle, the new(ish) tactic of massed torpedo bombers should prove pretty effective against the French ships.

Back at home, Ragnarum is becoming productive again, and not just in military terms this time. There has been a large amount of growth in the civilian productive sector, and increasing sales abroad, especially in Europe.

France: We are disappointed and relieved. Only 1/5 of the supplies arrived. Relieved because that is enough. The tanks, artillery, planes and bombers that arrived are drafted straight in. With the American tanks which are atleast more of a match for the Russian tanks than the French tanks were, we are using them effectively, actually managing to know out Russian and German tanks. The bomber and fighter were launched straight from Paris. The fighters counteracting and taking down German aircraft like there is no tomorrow. Russian bombers and fighters are some what harder to take down. The bombers a literally raining sh*t tons of bombs down on the German and Russian front lines. We don't know the casualties, but i would not like to be down there. The American artillery, vastly superior to French artillery is now more precise, and we are heavily bombarding the Russian front advancing from Belgium, and some firing at the German offensive. All our new Armoured vehicles are making transportation much easier, and we are now a proper defensive and fighting army.

All our new Armoured vehicles are making transportation much easier, and we are now a proper defensive and fighting army.

Seeing this happen, Hundreds of AF36E fighters with 37mm cannons are sent over to deal with the new American fighters and bombers. Meanwhile, 2 extra armoured divisions (about 30,000 men) are sent to the frontline, they are sent with a mobile anti-air brigade equipped with triple 57mm AA guns and quad 37mm cannons.


Upon reaching the skies above France, the American bombers appear to be sturdily built and ridiculously well armed, fortunately the sturdiness doesn't seem to be a problem to 37mm cannons, however the 8+ machine guns do. The dogfighting is pretty brutal, but eventually the fighters are able to turn the fight into a situation they can win.

The new mobile AA guns appear to be pretty useful, they are simply pointed at the general formation of bombers and sprayed until fire appears. Meanwhile, the Ragnaran bombers are now being put in better planned out formations that are less vulnerable to fighter attack, they are also being escorted by fighters. Never the less, they continue to carry out attacks on the French artillery, which has varying degrees of success.

With the bombers, even though they have the capability to fight fighters, you forgot to add into the account that American fighters (probably as good as yours) are there protecting them , and taking out your fighters.

France: The bombing campaigns aren't completely a success. They are far from a failure. They are the most effective thing we have done in this war yet. Just some of the divisions we send out, come back a few planes lighter. We have had more success bombing the less well equipped Germans than the Russians. As the Russians start to bombard the line, we camouflage the artillery better, and the AA guns are working a treat. We are setting up more permanent blast proof concrete out posts and barriers to hold the line. The line seems to be holding for now. We do need more supplies though. The American tanks are obviously superior to the Germans in the field, we are picking them off like flies. The counter attack has been launched and we have slammed into there flank with 7,200 tanks. With the Russians it is hard to tell. Both are quick, the Russians fire power is better, but our's are holding out better. But they have more. Perhaps it could just be the drivers? We have enough ammunition to hold off for a while.

America: As getting supplies on cargo ships seems to be getting harder, we need ways of getting the cargo through. We know the Russians won't sink our cargo ships, because that would be declaring war on us, but they are turning them around. We have told the captains to do as the Russians say to prevent a war. We have come up with a few ideas. To deliver planes, sail 3 of our biggest carriers over to the shore of France, then fly the planes over to Paris. Only problem being, they would be American pilots flying them over. We are also planning on delivering food and ammunition by sub. Our top of the range subs should avoid detection and surface in the ports nicely. We are also going to send bombers over but instead of bombs, they shall be carrying food and ammo to drop. We will also send another fleet of cargo ships over filled with new tanks, planes, artillery etc.

I'm attacking your bombers from the ground at the same time.
The Ragnaran fighters begin gaining altitude before they dive on the bombers, putting the sun to their backs and flying amongst clouds so they are much harder to spot and have the element of surprise on the bombers and their escorts.

The extra 2 tank divisions get to work attempting to punch holes in the French lines alongside the other division, with the new fresh reinforcements they begin pushing again. The Artillery they brought with them and the dive bombers begin bombardment.
The Ragnaran tank destroyers seem to be very effective against the enemy. They are beginning to be used more often, and with the new offensive happening, they are able to hold ground very stress free while the rest of the line advances.
An extra mechanized infantry division is sent to the Ragnaran front, which seems to be bulging into France more compared to the rest of the line.

[New Carloso]

Anti-aircraft guns in Malaga, Madrid and Seville returned fire on the bombers while hundreds of long range bombers return the favour by launching counter raids on Moroccan and Italian cities. The submarines of the Mediterranean fleet lead the attack on the Italian fleet, wary of the possibility of other submarines in the area. They are guided by destroyers and light cruisers designed to seek out enemy subs and provide cover fire.

[Renetopia]

I plan to, but I have just sent my fleet there. It'll take a while. Maybe tomorrow.

Wait... Your playing as both America, France AND Britain?

The Balkan Navy, hearing of the American possible counter-attack and a possible war, backs down from an invasion. "But mark my words", said president Kažimi, "we will get Monaco. One way or another."

Yes but don't forget our fighters are doing the same thing.

France: The Russian dive bombers are a help to us. As they dive down we can normally get a clear shot. We are pulling more aircraft down now. As the Russian advance continues, and the Germans stopped almost in its track, we focus more on the Russians. We have seen how affective there tank destroyers are, and we ask the Americans to invent and send some over. The counter attack on the Germans has gone swimmingly. They obviously did not think we had the power to do that and were caught off guard. The enemy sustained heavy tank casualties, as our tanks were coming in at there side shooting their tracks, disabling them. We on the other hand did not lose to many. Infarct hardly any at all. We are bringing in enemy tanks to be stripped, melted and produced into new tanks.

America: As France has asked for a tank destroyer we have came up with this,

M18 Hellcat.

Gun = 90mm
Armour: At front 26mm slanted, unfortunately the rear is rather exposed, side armour 22mm.
Speed: 74kmph (can me modded to do 92kmph)
Armour: Only downside, very thin to keep it light 26/13/13mm

These are to be mass preduced and 2,500 are to be sent to France.

We have also created a new tank:

France: Hearing the of the invasion of Monaco, we have asked Britain to help us defend it, but they weren't interested. We turn to the Americans, can you send down a small fleet to protect it?

America: Even after the population said no, we are sending a small task force of subs and 2 carriers down to Monaco to deter the Balkan Federation from invading.

Wait... Your playing as both America, France AND Britain?

No, America because that is the country i chose, France because Uiernthlaal gave up, and i don't want France being invaded easily, like every other country conquered by played nations, and i am simply asking Britain for help, not playing as them.
