Mediterranean

- An Italian sub attempts to attack a French transport west of Cagliari, but engages its escort instead! The French DE is sent to the bottom, which is also a surprise. A Brewster Buffalo strafes the transport for one damage. An Italian DE attacks and sinks the stricken transport, though the transport puts up a fight, doing one damage to the DE.

North Africa

- A Spav bombed a rail just east of Algeirs.

- A Macchi and Spav bomb a Kradschutzen near Nahit, redlining it. A 2/3 L6-40 attacks... and wins! The L6-40 took one damage, leaving it redlined.

- A Spav bombed a road east of Touggourt. Another bombed a Kradschutzen, but didn't do any damage.

Southern France

- A Fokker strafed a rail north-west of Marseille, but damaged an infantry unit instead.

I just built it. It's in view of your territory so I knew you would see it right away. Mussolini requested German assistance in North Africa so Hitler is sending Rommel and the Afrika Corps to help out our Italian friends (who we all know make better lovers than soldiers. ;)
 
Germany summary turn 13

France
Bunkers on square adjacent to Nancy were softened up by artillery and then attacked. Germany lost its only Panzer4 unit in the attack:( and a Fallschirjagen. It killed 2 bunker units a tank and flak but the Maginot line bunker unit retreated when it was redlined. I didn't think those units could move!

Brest's lone infantry unit was killed by a marine and the town was captured.

Lyon's 4 infantry defenders were killed and the city captured. Germany lost one Fallschirjagen unit.

Toulouse was captured killing 3 defenders without loss. A flak and infantry unit were killed by the city. We also captured a British worker.

An infantry and flak unit were killed by Fallschirjagens near Marseilles and a plane was destroyed on the ground. Another French infantry was killed next to Marseilles by HE-11 and stuka bombing.

Only Marseilles and some bunker units remain in France.

I notice that Bordeaux is now Swedish (Spanish, I guess) . Germany sends its regards to General Franco.

Britain
A British fighter was shot down next to London.

Portsmith and Dover were bombarded by ships doing minor damage to some British ships.

A road and radar tower were destroyed NE of London by naval bombardment.

A road on an oilfield by Damascas was bombed.

Political Announcement
Tired of the Axis provokation, a Russian sub decides to sink an Italian Transport near Zonguldak. Soviet Union did not want this war, but it was forced to enter it!
A cease fire was agreed between Turkey and the Soviet Union, as well as a free passage agreement.

Turkey
Italian Inf units protecting Zonguldak were dispatched by Russian Infantry after air bombing.
Turkey also lost a Turkish Matilda to Russian Tanks (before the cease fire was signed).

Europe
Some roads and radars were destroyed in the Minor Axis territory as a pre-emptive defensive measure... it lead to Germany declaring automatic war on Russia...

Oops! Sorry, I keep forgetting about that airbase rule. Yes, I think the stuka and Ju-52 troop transport just arrived. I will remove them immediately to Europe and ensure that I have no more than 4 planes per airfield.
 
Hey,

Yeah, I did. Sorry for the delay, everything is a bit hectic at the moment! I fly out to Japan tomorrow morning for a holiday. I'm taking a laptop though, so I'll be able to play Civ uninterrupted once I get settled in (staying with my brother).

I should have time to play the save tonight (or on the plane, hah), but if not, I'll be a couple of days.

Edit: Installing Civ now...
