Act of Ambition (Map Game)

The year is 1945 ......... but not as we know it. 

In 1933, the American government was overthrown in a military coup, which forced President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to flee Washington DC, as the nation into civil war between various the American Loyalists and the new government of the United States of America controlled by the American Legion, retaining its name from the old government to increase legitimacy. The world changed forever, as halfway across the Atlantic, Adolf Hitler emerged and rose to power. Over the course of several years, the Germans slowly conquered Central Europe and by 1939, they had begun their advance into Poland. The Six Month War and the Eastern War both began to rage across the continent. First the Six Month War, and then the Eastern War. By 1940, Germany had taken France, while the UK was forced to negotiate. In fear of a German invasion, Stalin began preparing the Red Army for a war against the Reich and when the Reich at last had secured much of Europe, Stalin was proven correct. Initially, Germany was able to push as far as Eastern Ukraine and Outer Leningrad, but then the ensuing counterattack forced the Germans as far back as the pre-War borders and from there, the war dragged on to a bloody stalemate. Between 1943 and 1944 the Reich and the Soviet Union had fought a war of attrition and by the time the Russo-German DMZ was established, the war had taken many lives across Europe. As the ash cleared, the political and demographic landscape of Earth was changed forever. And it was all because of the will of a single man. As the new America rebuilds from the Second American Civil War, a revolution starts to brew and the Cold War begins. How will you change the world? Will you be a mere observer of the course of history? Or will you be a participant and make an Act of Ambition?

"“Welcome to the dawn of a new era. The flames of the world flicker around us, the smoke of the establishment rises high into the black clouds. We are the dragon, the roaring lion awakened from his sleep. We are the phoenix arising from the ashes of the world. We are reborn.” -Generalissimo Francisco Franco, Armistice Day, 1945."

'''Hitler continues the Final Solution in the German Reich, her territories, client states and European Allies. '''

'''The Second Sino-Japanese War continues as it drags on to a bloody stalemate. '''
 * German Reich: Following the Eastern War, the German Reich begins to rebuild its economy, and infrastructure while building up the Wehrmacht. This means that the Heer, the Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine are built up, especially the Kriegsmarine. In economic news, Hitler begins implementing policies to re-privatise the German economy and attract foreign investors to the German Reich while still maintaining control over public services and utilities, as well as the arms industry. This makes the Reich a more friendly environment for both small businesses and large companies alike, combined with the reduction of interest rates. Meanwhile, Hitler continues to implement the Final Solution across the German Reich. This results in Jews, Slavs, Homosexuals, Disabled and Political Dissidents continuing to be sent to concentration camps. It is expected that Europe outside the Soviet Union will be cleansed of Untermensch before 1950. In military terms, the Reich begins preparations for Operation: Tannenbaum and continues work on the Uranprojekt, with the German Reich hoping to achieve a breakthrough before 1950 - 1952. This means that the Swizz-German border begins to be filled with Wehrmacht forces. Work also continues of the Aggregat rocket family, with work being aimed for making an efficient delivery system for nuclear weapons. With the Eastern War over, priority shifts towards political opposition, and thus a crackdown is initiated on suspected Resistance members by the Gestapo, assisted by SS.
 * General Government: The General Government continues to tighten its grip on the region, and continues the genocide of Untermensch in the Final Solution. Military force is used against Polish Resistance forces, and mass executions begin against their members.
 * Vichy France: The government of Vichy France continues to tighten its grip and continues the genocide of the Untermensch in the Final Solution. A meeting with Hitler then results in the possibility that Hitler may return Northern France to Vichy France and result in the formation of the Independent State of France after 1950. A joint operation by German SS and Vichy French forces begin to root out the French Resistance and wipe them out.
 * Slovakia: Economic expansion and genocide of Untermensch continues as does a crackdown on possible suspected Resistance members.
 * Occupied Serbia: Expansion of the Serbian economy continues, as does the genocide against the Untermensch in the region. Yugoslav Resistance members begin to be rooted out by German SS forces, and local collaborators, as villages and towns begin to be destroyed by SS forces.
 * Spanish Diplomacy: The Spanish ambassador to Berlin, Jose Maria Finat y Escriva de Romani,proposes the sale of 100 12.8cm Flak 40 AA guns, 60 SIG 33 15cm Infantry Heavy Field Cannon and 90 SFH 18M 15cm Heavy Field Howitzers to Spain.
 * German Diplomacy: The Reich accepts the Spanish offer with additional aid being sent in the form of air strikes in the event of a military confrontation against Portugal.
 * Switzerland (Mod): Due to what appears to be German forces massing on the border the amount of money being spent on modernisation of the military is increased and work on the national redoubt is made a priority.
 * This is before Germany falls apart, correct? - Ace009
 * Spain: General Franco increases government spending on education, promising to “nurture the flame of the future, in the hearts and minds of our beloved children”. He unveils the new Plan de Recuperación Económica (Economic Recovery Plan), a manifesto to stabilise the Spanish economy and promote sustainable growth. In an effort to reduce unemployment, the Esquema Nacional de Trabajo (National Working Scheme or ENT) is established. This offers unemployed men and women between the age of 18 and 30 employment on a public works scheme. The employees of this scheme receive food and lodgings (usually portable camps near their labour sites), plus a small salary. This will eventually provide up to 300,000 young Spaniards with valuable skills, wages and work, whilst at the same time vastly reducing unemployment and resulting crime, and providing a cost effective method of constructing infrastructure. Work begins on a motorway network, built across Spain in the rough shape of a spoked wheel. This not only creates a useful transport base for Spanish citizens, but also promotes efficiency in military logistics and response to border threats. The ENT is also employed in improving the national rail network, and various other public works projects such as improving sanitation and water supplies, hospital construction, and working in mines to obtain resources. The Volunteer Labour Force (VLF) is also established by Falangist patriots. Around 40,000 men and women across the nation give up a few hours of their time per week to build schools, clinics, hospitals and roads, in the name of Spanish patriotism. The influx of national and government support for growth through labour becomes known as the Labour Dawn. Another method used to promote growth and employment is to increase military spending. Many historians and analysts agree this is the best way to stimulate productivity and growth, as the resultant ripple effect diversifies across markets, meaning funding research into weaponry and tanks actually increases growth in areas as different as healthcare and stationary manufacturing. The government therefore significantly increases military expenditure, showing particular interest in armament and vehicular sectors. The Ministry of Defence announces two major approaches in the Military Budget Paper 1945. Firstly, work will begin on designing and constructing a comprehensive and advanced radar network across the nation’s coastline, an early warning system against air attack similar to that of the British prior to its partial destruction during the Battle of Britain. Secondly, the military will announce an increase in spending on armoured vehicles. The Spanish military at the end of WW2 had around 100 tanks, a number that is recognised to be equal with most other nations uninvolved in the war, but much weaker than participants. As a result, a Spanish tank programme is developed, loosely based on the Panzer IVs sold to them by Germany in December 1943. The aim is for the final prototype to be completed by the end of 1945, with the roll out commencing in February 1946. The requirements are that the tank is capable of reaching speeds of at least 30mph for extended periods of time on road, and at least 15mph cross country, with a range of over 100 miles. It must also be capable of fording over 1.5 metres. The armaments developed for the tank model predesignate its weaponry as 3x German made MG34s, and a 7.5 cm main gun, projected to have been finalised by August. The armour, designed already by a Spanish firm, ranges between 30 and 105 mm thick. The production line for this tank must have the capacity to produce 700 by the end of 1946, with the aim of escalating production to 4000 by 1949. Recruitment for the tank crews will begin in July 1945, with four to five crew members required per tank and an eight-month training programme to ensure Spanish tank crews are of the highest calibre in Europe. The Spanish military also begins further production of the 8.8cm Flak 36 AA guns it has operated since the Spanish Civil War, with the aim of producing 1800 by 1948, and 5000 Messerschmitt BF 109G-10s in a similar period. After five years of remaining aloof from a war that has decimated the economies of those involved, Spain's economy is on the way to recovery from its initial post-civil war state, although there is a long way to go. In other news, the Minister for Education reports increased literacy and grades in the Spanish young, with the University of Madrid and many others reporting higher than ever graduation and enrollment numbers, perhaps due to civil war tensions dissolving over time. Anti-Fascist activity is at a low, although the newly founded National Security Service reports that there are still many dissident revolutionaries plotting acts of terror across the nation, with many in hiding in Portugal. The Spanish ambassador in Portugal requests that the Portuguese police assists in detaining and extraditing these terrorists for just punishment. In Spain, however, the NSS task force dedicated to the elimination of revolutionaries is successful in arresting and prosecuting over 3000 dissidents. Of these, most are found guilty, with 183 executed for a mixture of murder, treason, terrorism, destruction of government property, inciting violence, and acts against the state. The infamous Internal Security Service arrests 200 treacherous government officials, 146 of whom are found guilty of high treason and sentenced to death. Campaigns across Spain continue to encourage reconciliation and integration between the old sides of the Civil War, in a concerted effort to prevent violence and unrest.  The Ministry of Housing begins planning a wave of 'garden cities' to provide homes and communities to the growing population. Light, airy, green spaces are emphasised, and designs are planned with the consideration of stopping congestion in streets, from both pedestrians and road vehicles. Large amounts of private interest in the housing market results in independent construction firms beginning hundreds of new building projects with profit motive. Building Regulatory Laws 13 through 28 are passed to ensure all new settlements are built with easy access to a Catholic church, high quality sanitation and plumbing, large parks and air-raid warning sirens. These building regulations improve living quality but at the same time ensure further boosts to the economy, as many more contractors are needed at no cost to the government since the projects are run privately.  


 * Spanish Diplomacy: We formally request that Andorra allow itself to be annexed. As a part of Spain, it will have access to a bright new future and will be effectively integrated into a European power. Failure to comply will result in an invasion, which your entire population of around 30,000 would not be able to resist.
 * Andorra (Mod):We accept annexation
 * South Africa: With the end of World War II we look forward to a bright new future free of violence and poverty. The South African government implements the assisted emigration scheme where whites from around the world can emigrate to South Africa for £10 where they will then be provided with opportunity for education and a home in any of new areas assigned to the new white population. We have our current embassy staff in Basutoland and Swaziland tell the current government that they are being annexed and if they go peacefully they can retain their current governance and laws although will lose sovereignty (Mod response). On the economic front business subsidies are created to start up manufacturing and mining business while new farming colleges are built across the country and over time we intend for all people working in the agricultural sector to attend one of these for long enough to gain advanced knowledge of agriculture. In an attempt to encourage large companies both from overseas and internally we make it so corporate tax is uniform while income tax is reworked so that higher wage earning people are taxed higher than lower wage earning people. We put out a request on the international market for the purchase of about 150 medium tanks to be paid for in instalments of gold over the next seven years.  In an attempt to promote racial harmony in schools we attempt to force integration where schools at first are mixed where all possible black and white children are made to learn again and all lessons are taught in English with Bantu and Afrikaans languages not to be spoken at schools. Although, in civil positions in areas where they are predominately Bantu, the native language is allowed with the same provisions going for Afrikaans areas.


 * Basutoland: The people of Basutoland would agree to this if the British Crown approves.
 * Swaziland: This government would like to accept the annexation, as long as authorisation is permitted under His Majesty's government.
 * British Empire: We accept the annexation of Basutoland and Swaziland into the Union of South Africa.


 * American Resistance: We work to spread anti-Fascist propaganda throughout the United States, particularly in our strongholds in the South and West Coast. We attempt to take control of a radio station in San Francisco (RNG). We continue to recruit and build our military, preparing for another war or a secession movement if we must.
 * San Francisco Radio Station Assault RNG: 50/50 = 74/100. The station is now part of the Resistance.
 * Turkey: Economy, infrastructure and military improves. The population continues to grow, more roads, buildings and railways are built. OTL Technology of something continues to be reached. More armored fighting vehicles, warships and warplanes are built and added to the military in case of invasion. Being more democratic, Turkey asks the Soviet Union and United Kingdom for alliance.


 * Republic Of China: We prepare to negotiate terms of a Ceasefire with the P.R.C out of the hope the Chinese people can unite under one banner to throw back the invaders (RNG For Success of peace talks) Well, at the same time we launch a massive offensive using artillery against Japanese forces in Xi'an in the hope that the offensive can push back Japanese forces away from the capital. Also we employ a draft of males from the ages of 18 to 56 which we hope will result in one million new recruits for the army. (RNG For Success Of Draft)
 * (OOC) South Africa: I might have phrased it wrong but I meant buy tanks from other people not sell tanks to others.
 * German Resistance: The German resistance begins execution of their plot. A bomb is planted in a meeting room near Hitler which goes off (RNG Hitler almost died OTL in the same situation). After the bomb goes off a coup begins (RNG, Same coup as operation Valkyrie, success goes up with Hitler's death). Secret distribution of anti-German propaganda continues. SS factions in the concentration camp frees Jews and encourages them to rebel, as contact has been made with Jewish elders (RNG). Otto von Habsburg begins leading guerrilla warfare down in Austrian villages. (RNG) Help is requested of the British and other foreign powers.


 * RNG for the assassination: 74/100 so Hitler is killed.
 * RNG for Valkryie: 29/100 so Valkyrie fails.
 * RNG for concentration camp revolt: 64/100 reasonably sized breakout and ensuring revolt.
 * RNG for Austrian revolt: 37/100 Otto von Hasburg survives but fails to start a serious rebellion
 * ALERT: Operation: Valkyrie retconned.
 * Panama: We keep modernising our nation and we ask nations to help our nation and we ask Colombia to talk about our relations.
 * Kingdom of Romania: We stop the Final Solution in our territories, and we use the Jews and Romani as a serf class in the rebuilding of Odessa and other formerly Soviet-occupied cities in Transnistria. We ask the German Reich if the Banat can be transferred to us from the Serbian Occupation Zone, seeing at it is a reward for our contribution in the Eastern War. We ask Finland for a major trade deal, involving us sending food to the nation. We SECRETLY spread propaganda in Northern Transylvania, calling the Romanian population out for rebelling against the Hungarian Government (RNG). SECRET END.
 * ​German Diplomacy: Führer Adolf Hitler officially accepts the request from the Romanian government, although he does express concern for the end of the Final Solution in Romania.
 * Transylvanian Revolt RNG: 50/50 = 84/100: Large scale revolt ensues in Northern Transylvania.


 * Soviet Union: As we hear the news of Hitler's death, and of the German Civil War. Chairman Stalin realizes that this is the ultimate window to attack the German swine. Although some are skeptical of this decision at first, Stalin very carefully explains it to them, and they agree with him after a very civil totally-not-gulag-threat-related discussion. As such, the   SOVIET UNION declares war upon Germany yet again. One million men fight in the DMZ, 900,000 infantry, 100,000 tanks. 200,000 troops guard Moscow specifically. Another 100,000 troops are sent to Ukraine, near the border with Romania. THE SOVIET UNION ASKS THE UNITED KINGDOM TO JOIN THEM IN THEIR ATTACK ON GERMANY. The Soviet Union asks for an alliance with Japan. 
 * Sorry Tech, but in a unanimous vote Person and I have decided to retcon this due to you having low army morale, a huge loss in civilian population, an economy in shambles, a lack of technology, AND your country being pretty much a ruin. You can try again in six years, at the least. ~AM.
 * Edit conflict with AM as I wrote this but good explanation: Would they? They entered a truce for a reason: it was incredibly costly. The death of Hitler does not necessarily mean the collapse of Germany, you would have to wait to find that out. Also, the USSR doesnt have 100,000 tanks, let alone after a world war. Nor does it have the capability of leaving 200,000 troops merely to guard Moscow, which is unlikely to be an initial target. Finally, the Soviet Union is in crushing debt. This war could lead to economic collapse. Also, you need to talk about what Stalin has done during 1945 aside from declaring war.
 * Australia: Australia begins the process to turn East Papua into a full Australian state with Port Moresby as its capital. Australia also encourages more immigration to Northern Australia with Darwin set to be its capital. However, the East Papuans feel it is of an occupation as Australia begin constructing airbases across the north of the territory. Australia enacts martial law after some protests get out of hand. Australia also asks Britain for the plans of the Comet medium tank and Meteor jet fighter, along with this an order of 100 of the new tanks and 50 of the planes. Australia also begins a new ship building program of some newer models. Prime Minister John Curtin of the Labor Party travels to New Zealand to propose the formation of the "Southeast Asian Treaty Organization", a specially alliance to promote peace in Southeast Asia. MOD RESPONSE.
 * Mod response: Yes New Zealand joins SEATO
 * USA: We continue our rebuilding process with factories along the east coast being built and farms along the west being built as well, The USA continues to build up its military with recruitment being high due to propaganda being played daily. Farms in the west continue to turn up more food. We send an army of 100,000 men into the west coast to retake the west from the traitors who have betrayed america. We target resistance strongholds along the coast hoping to retake it within a couple of years. We are shocked by the assassination of the leader of the Reich Adolf Hitler. We send help to help maintain the stability of the reich.  Using our influence over Cuba we try to establish a puppet government there MOD RESPONSE. We begin to work on a project for splitting atoms. Troops are posted along the US-Mexican border.
 * ​ALERT: Operation: Valkyrie retconned.
 * Colombia: With the Second American Civil War reigniting and increased tensions in Europe and Asia Colombia's export market is drastically limited leading to mass unemployment and economic decline. The president attempts to combat this with a series of unpopular taxes, military cuts, and land reforms. With the presidents approval ratings rapidly falling, a group of army officers plot to remove him and build a great and powerful Colombian empire. The communists, which are growing in popularity, also see a chance for a revolution that will remove American influence from the country for good.
 * Saudi Arabia: We begin to work on opening jobs by sending people to oil silos and to the army. A draft is made for men from 17-25 to join the army fearing a World War can happen at any moment. Military drills are he;d across the country mostly at the south. Schools are open in urban areas to improve the nation's future.
 * Peru: Peru's new government increases the military budget and expands all branches of it, including an aggressive naval and air force expansion project.
 * Canada: Canada secures the border to the now-Fascist United States and arms it with 10,000 Canadian soldiers.
 * American Resistance Diplomacy: We encourage Canada to invade Michigan and Minnesota!
 * Anti-Mussolini Rebels: A newly formed anti-Fascist resistance to the Mussolini regime is formed, taking members from the Action Party, the Garibaldi Battalion, and Giustizia e Liberta. The rebels are led by the former politician and journalist Ferruccio Parri and the former leader of the Garibaldi Battalion, Randolfo Pacciardi. The rebels are based in the Aosta Valley, using the borders with Vichy France and Switzerland to receive and give information to Greek and Yugoslav Resistance forces in the Italian occupied zones. Operation: Yakatit is planned and enacted, in which a group of ten resistance fighters escape into Switzerland and fly to Italian East Africa, where they will help fan the flames of uprising in the newly conquered land (MOD RESPONSE). Meanwhile, another group of rebels flies to Greece and attempt to bring the republican resistance groups of EDES, EOK, EKKA, PEAN, and Organization X under the arm of the Anti-Mussolini Rebels (MOD RESPONSE).


 * None of this ever happened. Sorry, but it turns out that these organisations were next to non-existent in OTL due to lack of support. Perhaps later in the game? As for the American Resistance, there is no bloody way they would allow that.  Oops. Need clarification as to WHY Canada is invading Michigan and Minnesota first. 
 * OOC American Resistance: The Great Lakes States are a strategic location in the Fascist United States. Canada could benefit through trade control and industries such as automobiles and dairy in those states. It could weaken the Fascist economy, helping in both the AR's ventures and benefiting Canada's economy. Also, this weakening will make a Fascist invasion of Canada, where Roosevelt still resides, less likely.
 * Japanese Korea continues to experience heavy civil unrest from the Korean population, who demand independence from Japan. Further measures to assimilate them with Japanese culture begin, though with little success due to unrest and the fact that a majority of the population lives in rural areas. The Korean colonial government, comprised of ethnic Japanese and Korean collaborators, enacts a law prohibiting the use of Hangul and replacing all writable phrases with Katakana instead. Immigration policies with Japan are considerably relaxed to allow more ethnic Japanese to settle in Korea, with most Japanese settling in the province in Northern Korea due to job opportunities and less Koreans.
 * Italy: Across the nation parades and marches take place to symbolise and celebrate the end of the war. Mussolini is quick to recognise the need for economic reform, and announces privatisation and state asset leases to boost cash flow and cut debts from the war. He realises that, as for most nations from the war, a recession is on the horizon, and so urgent budget changes are planned. Education spending is increased, particularly in materialistic acquisition as this diversifies spending to other areas such as textbooks and blackboards. Meanwhile, welfare spending is cut, and income and corporate taxes increased, in an attempt to quickly stabilise the economy and prepare for the global economic effect of a finished war. The army announces an immediate deflation to meet budget requirements, with the standing troop size decreased from around five million to one nillion, although these troops are left with the understanding that they may be called up at a moments notice. These troops now return to their pre-war jobs, allowing economic recovery to begin. This leaves million of surplus weapons and their ammunition, most of which is put into heavily guarded storage in case of a resurgence of conflict. However, in a desperate attempt to garner funds for the war-weakened economy, many weapons and vehicles are advertised for selective sale on the international market. Nations are asked to express their interest diplomatically.


 * Spanish Diplomacy: We would like to purchase 50 Camionetta 42 Sahariana SPA AS 42 scout cars, 300 AB 41 armoured scout cars and 100 M 105/25 assault guns for patrolling and maintaining order in the Spanish Sahara
 * Chinese Diplomacy: We would like to purchase 80 Camionetta, 42 Sahariana, SPA AS 42 scout cars, 400 AB 41 armoured scout cars and 200 M 105/25 assault guns along with your surplus small arms, like rifles, machine guns, anti-tank rifles, sub-machine guns, and other small arms in exchange for installments of gold for the next ten years.
 * Italian Diplomacy: We wish to remain neutral in any conflict you may have with our esteemed ally, Japan, and so we are sorry to say that we will not be engaging in a trade deal of a military kind with you. We accept the Spanish offer.
 * Ireland: Military and infrastructure begin to improve. Some of our fortifications begin to be constructed, while the Irish military recruits troops. The population is slightly increasing in Dublin, which is good. The roads and railways are not built yet. It could be decided when they will be built. The buildings are beginning to be built in some cities and there will be more to come.
 * British Empire: We have been blessed enough to be spared from the horrors of war, all the chaos and bloodshed in a glorious five year peace when the rest of the world entered a great turmoil. As a result of this peace, we remain the most powerful nation on Earth and we have also been a safe haven for many refugees, and we have benefited greatly from the massive spike of immigration and we continue to offer to be a safe haven for all who are oppressed.  Domestically, we implement the National Health Service, to ensure that all British subjects have the right to universal healthcare. We also set up massive industrialization programs, to set up roads, bridges, schools, hospitals, and factories across the British Empire, with focuses on the United Kingdom and the British Raj. We also plan to implement a national highway system and the development of suburbs. We also encourage entrepreneurship by making low corporate taxes and providing subsidies for those who are starting small businesses, as we begin to move from a secondary sector economy to a tertiary economy. During this time of peace we have focused into the Westminster project,  allocating resources to it while other nations have been distracted by war, with the help of Albert Einstein and from scientists from around the globe we expect to be the first nation to complete the Westminster project. On the international scale, we receive news of the Holocaust from the Soviet Union and we are horrified by this vile atrocity on humanity and we demand that Nazi Germany stops the Holocaust. To make it clear that we are serious, we send the British Royal Navy to blockade the English Channel and the North Sea  to demand that Holocaust ends. In the Pacific, we mobilize troops in British Malaya and Burma, sending troops from the British Raj and send them to to the Japanese Indochinese border in case of attack. We congratulate the Chinese victory over the Japanese Empire.

1945.5
'''The Tianzhou Offensive results in a costly defeat for the Japanese (as per the algorithm). '''

'''Tensions begin to rise between Switzerland and Germany following reports of German buildup on the Swizz-German Border. As a result the Swiss military begins to prepare for a possible invasion. '''

'''In retaliation for the Tianzhou Offensive, additional troops are sent to China to tighten control over the already held territories. '''

'''The Hungarian government declares a state of emergency in Northern Transylvania as troops begin to mobilise into the region. '''

'''With South African Government incentives for immigration largely from the Netherlands but also from occupied Belgium, France, Yugoslavia come to South Africa at the prospect of a better life and free from Nazis oppression. '''

'''Across the world, post-war recession hits out at the nations involved in the devastation of the last six years. Huge debts built up by defense expenditure and the economic effect of mass conscription make massive hits to economies across the globe, dependent on wartime involvement. Nations are forced to reduce their military size back to peace time levels (where possible), but this too results in a huge drop of GDP as military expenditure decreases to normal levels. Particularly affected are Germany, Japan, the USSR, Italy and China, although every other participant also faces a considerable need for economic reform.'''

'''Royal Navy blockades of the continent result in increased pressure between Britain and the Reich. Could a new Battle of the Atlantic begin? '''

'''In China, the governments fighting in the deadly conflict theater are desperate in their efforts to procure a continuous supply of weapons and munitions to fight the war. With what is almost international ignorance to avoid being embroiled in political conflict with Japan, the Chinese receive almost no foreign aid, although Communist sympathizers in the USSR establish a Red Legion of volunteers to aid their allies under Zedong. '''


 * British Diplomacy to ROC: We send foreign aid in the form of weapons and munitions via the British Raj, however it will take a while before these supplies reach the front line.


 * German Reich: Following the Eastern War, the German Reich begins to rebuild its economy, and infrastructure while building up the Wehrmacht. This means that the Heer, the Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine are built up, especially the Kriegsmarine. In economic news, Hitler's latest policies continue to attract investors, reprivatise most of the German economy, maintain state control over public services and utilities, and reduce interest rates. Meanwhile, the Reich continues to implement the Final Solution, which continues to result in Jews, Slavs, Homosexuals, Disabled and Political Dissidents continuing to be sent to concentration camps. It is expected that Europe outside the Soviet Union will be cleansed of Untermensch before 1950. In military terms, the Reich finally executes  Operation: Tannenbaum  as German forces begin crossing the border into Switzerland (Algorithm Time!) and continues work on the Uranprojekt, with the German Reich hoping to achieve a breakthrough before 1950 - 1952. Work also continues of the  Aggregat  rocket family, with work being aimed for making an efficient delivery system for nuclear weapons. At this point, it is suspected that disorganised Resistance against the Reich has effectively collapsed, despite reports of some resistance members still loose in the region.


 * General Government: The General Government continues to tighten its grip on the region, and continues the genocide of Untermensch in the Final Solution. Military force is used against Polish Resistance forces, and mass executions continue against their members.
 * Vichy France: The government of Vichy France continues to tighten its grip and continues the genocide of the Untermensch in the Final Solution. The joint operation by German SS and Vichy French forces continues in order to root out the French Resistance and wipe them out.
 * Slovakia: Economic expansion and genocide of Untermensch continues as does a crackdown on possible suspected Resistance members.
 * Occupied Serbia: Expansion of the Serbian economy continues, as does the genocide against the Untermensch in the region. Yugoslav Resistance members begin to be rooted out by German SS forces, and local collaborators, as villages and towns begin to be destroyed by SS forces.
 * Kingdom of Romania: We stop the Final Solution in our territories, and we use the Jews and Romani as a serf class in the rebuilding of Odessa and other formerly Soviet-occupied cities in Transnistria. We warn Hungary to not attack the Transylvanian populace or we will declare war. We also appeal to Germany and propose the Third Vienna Awards. We mobilize for a possible Hungarian-Romanian war.


 * Republic Of China: We launch a massive offensive against Japanese forces occupying our southern coastline near Taiwan and fortify our positions on the Northern Front. Meanwhile, we request 3000 M3 Stuart Tanks from the USA along with ammunition, food, water, clothes, and weapons so we can grow our army from six million to eight million in order to have more manpower than the Japanese. Also, we are addressing economic problems and corruption. These improvements are also accompanied by a government encouraged boost in war related industries like ammunition, weapon, tank and airplane manufacturing along with the increased production of other things needed by our army. Also, to get these supplies to the front line two new railroads have been built fixing our problem with supplies.
 * ​German Diplomacy: We officially accept the offer of Romania and in exchange, Germany will transfer control of Slovakia to Hungary.
 * MOD: I assume by request you mean you wish to purchase? US, please bear in mind that China cannot guarantee payment. Please refrain from Capitalizing Every Word Like This.'''
 * USA: MacArthur dies in a plane crash and Omar Bradley is selected as his replacement. Due to resistance actions we firstly send a force to retake the radio station in California. We realising there is a major anti- fascism problem in the south we set up a large scale work project for the unemployed with the construction of new roads and public federally owned buildings and make it so that unemployment can result in being placed on a forced labour program which build public federally owned buildings. We also start a large scale reforestation project in agricultural area's as well as setting up mobile education centres which will stay in one area for three months teaching all the local farmers different ways of growing crops to increase agricultural productivity and we implement an artificial scarcity policy for all kinds of crops to keep prices at a fair level. We implement the bonds scheme where people sitting on large cash reserves which aren't kept moving are forced to exchange their large wealth for bonds which go up at 2.5% interest rate and will be released at a later date when the cash value of the bonds will be taken out of the system decided when people can exchange their bonds for cash. Bonds can be traded and some workers begin to be paid in them and shops accept them in place of currency. We do general tax relief on the lower class of society to allow them to be able to feed themselves. To deal with the resistance we offer hard currency to anyone who gives us information about the resistance. We offer a one-off general amnesty to all those involved in the resistance and they can return to normal life and society We create fake resistance soldiers claiming to be apart of the American resistance movement and order them to raid towns in California kill the people and generally be nasty while we publicly announce that the American resistance movement have been getting supplies from the Japanese and USSR and so we will start giving limited supplies of tanks and artillery to the RoC which stimulates the industry as well as in a push to increase ship building we commission five new aircraft carriers, five submarines, nine frigates and 17 new destroyers to be constructed primarily on the west coast although some in shipyards in New England the government promises to pay significant cash bonuses to workers who are still working at the end of the project as well as moving all of our fleet to San Francisco while more funding is placed into the Manhattan Project. We start construction of a new aircraft the Boeing Butler which is a new jet fighter and we plan to build 500 of them with production largely in the South in this six months while we also plan to build 600 Sherman tanks. Certain civil liberties which had been unfairly suspended such as right to trial and other judicial rights are reinstated and elections will be held for state level positions such as governor and state assembly so state level politics will be democratic.
 * German Diplomacy: The German people are effectively becoming concerned regarding the political reforms and advise against the re-Judaisation of America. We are also mourning the loss of MacArthur as he was a man America needed in these times of crisis.
 * American Diplomacy: We understand German concerns about problems in America and we thank you for the faith you put in our government to solve them.
 * Australia: Governor-General Lieutenant General Allen Boase declares East Papua a new Australian state from Port Moresby. East Papuans must now live under the Australian banner. We send a brigade of soldiers and a squadron of planes to the Indochinese border in support of Britain. Australia asks Britain to become a member of SEATO. Australia begins patching up land for possible testing of the Westminster Project after its completion. Prime Minister Curtin returns home only to die on July 5th. Franklin Forde is replaced by Ben Chifley on July 13th. We continue to build up our military in East Papua. We also ask New Zealand to send troops to help Britain. We also put our navy, army and air force on standby in case a war with Japan breaks out on the Indochinese border.
 * British Diplomacy: We accept Australia's offer to join SEATO and we're glad that you've granted permission to help with the Westminster Project and for aiding us with troops on the Indochinese border.
 * Canadian Diplomacy: We express great interest in joining SEATO and we will be glad to help you in any way we can.
 * Spain: General Franco continues his wave of government spending to stimulate the economy’s rapid growth. Interest rates are lowered to encourage borrowing and spending, as one man’s spending is another man’s income. Inflation decreases to normal levels, as the economy begins to stabilize, very much helped by the Spanish state of non-belligerency in the World War. His policies of the Labour Dawn and the Economic Recovery Plan continue, as the VLF swells with volunteers. The radar network finishes its planning stage and enters the construction phase. Thanks to help from the national work initiative and hundreds of Spanish firms, the network is expected to be functional by the end of 1946 and entirely finished by 1947. Initial construction is focused around the Southern coast, and the borders with France and Portugal, which should be finished by December. To complement this network, which will be the most comprehensive in the world, a number of forts are built along the border with Vichy France, not as a display of aggression or worry but predominantly as an economic milestone with a worthwhile purpose. Franco announces a new state health care initiative which will provide basic care for free for any Spanish citizen. He also establishes a new element of the armed forces, the Guardia Roja. The Red Guard, General Franco’s personal division, numbers around 15,000 soldiers. These men are drawn directly from the ranks of the regular army, chosen for their experience and skill, before undergoing further training and political vetting to join the elite guard. Their main duties include guarding government installations and senior officials, including Franco himself, suppressing civil unrest, supporting the SSI in prolific or violent arrests, escorting major political prisoners, and eliminating revolt in overseas territory, with the support of the regular army. The division is known for its brutal tactics and fanatical loyalty to General Franco, as well as its haughty superiority to regular units. Red Guards outrank regular army soldiers and are known to act dismissively towards army officers, who many view as inferior. They are characterized by their black M40 helmets, emblazoned with a small Falangist flag emblem on either side, and stiff black uniforms with the same Falangist flag on both lapels. They resemble SS Stormtroopers in this sense, although the red Falangist emblems give entirely different connotations to it. Colloquially, they are known as the ‘Blood Guard’ (Guardia de Sangre) and the ‘Skeletons’, probably due to their brutal and violent tactics in suppressing revolt, their relative unaccountability in the eyes of the law, and their fanatical loyalty. The prototype of the Spanish tank programme is completed, and production begins ahead of schedule. 100 are to be produced before the year is out, with a further 2000 built in the first half of 1946. The artillery bought from Germany continues to be manufactured under license, with almost 3000 now in place in border and coastal fortifications. The Italian armored vehicles are shipped to the Spanish territory in Africa for patrol duties. Meanwhile, construction begins of a new Spanish naval fleet, to replenish the naval forces decimated by the civil war years before. 12 more Canarias-class heavy cruisers are planned, to add to the two that remain afloat, along with five Espana-class battleships and 18 destroyers. The current fleet of the two aforementioned Canarias-class cruisers, one Reina Victoria Eugenia-class cruiser, one Blas de Lezo-class cruiser, three Almirante Cervera-class cruisers, 16 submarines and 20 assorted destroyers finishes renewal and refurbishment and begins deployment in the Med, with five of the destroyers, two cruisers and three submarines sent to Africa as a continuous Spanish presence. In Madrid, the government launches a project to develop advanced jet planes within the next decade, capable of gaining air superiority over almost every other aircraft. Military recruitment increases to bring the standing army from 500,000 men to one million, whilst all men between 18 and 40 are required to attend reserve drills and training in case of full conscription. SECRET: FIVE SUBMARINES ARE DEPLOYED TO THE PORTUGUESE COAST WHERE THEY ARE TO REMAIN HIDDEN AND AWAIT FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS. PLANS ARE DRAWN FOR RAPID TROOP MOBILIZATION TO THE PORTUGUESE BORDER
 * Spanish Diplomacy to Germany: We would like to acquire the manufacturing licenses for the Type XX1 U-Boat and buy 300 Type V11 and 190 Type IX U-Boats.
 * SECRET Spanish Diplomacy to Germany and Italy: We request help for a Spanish Fascist invasion of Portugal. The Reich has already promised the help of the Luftwaffe, but we also request the support of the Italian navy to blockage Portugal, and ground support from both nations. A successful invasion will ensure Fascist, sympathetic control of the Mediterranean’s West access point, and so of all shipping from the West, although Gibraltar is a key British stronghold. It will advance fascism in the progress of the new world.
 * SECRET Diplomacy to Germany: Franco has prepared a collaboration of Spain's top scientists and experts for transit to Germany. He asks for Spanish involvement in the Uranprojekt, which Spain will provide extra funding, equipment, laboratories and scientists for.'


 * American Resistance: We laugh at the so-called "American" government's attempt to take the radio station, responding by attempting to take more stations around San Francisco, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Portland, and Seattle. (RNG). We call to our brothers in Mexico to take to the battlefield against the Fascists. We mobilize 55,000 troops stationed in Florida to occupy state via Tallahassee (ALGORITHM REQUIRED). We continue to recruit more, especially Jews; we work to send military personnel undercover in the government forces, mimicking what they did in our military. The Resistance-controlled "Free San Francisco" newspaper denounces the Fascist leader, pointing out they are destroying their own towns and infrastructure in California. (SECRET: We will give payment, great reward and amnesty to anyone who gives us the location of the Manhattan Project).


 * Canada: Canada will put in an application to join SEATO. We will also send spies into The United States to find out information about The Manhattan Project.
 * AUSTRALIAN DIPLOMACY: Request accepted, will take certain troop commitments to maintain peace for the Asia/Pacific region and the world.


 * AR SECRET DIPLOMACY: We ask Japan and Mexico for aid and personnel for the re-igniting war, including new tanks, ships and bombers.
 * OOC AR: I'm using 55,000 troops as an estimate, but could a mod give me a more plausible figure? Thanks.
