USA 1938:     Today was orientation day. I am pretty nervous because I am not quiet sure what to do or whats going to happen. I have a feeling on the first day that there is going to be a lot of battles. But I cannot help anyone because it goes against my objectives. I am suppose to stay out of the war until someone attacks me. I am planning on cutting off Japans supply of oil. Which that will probably lead to them attacking me. If someone attacks me I cannot do much because I will not have a very big army or navy. Lets see how this goes.
    President 

USA 1939:    The war has started! Germany went on a rampage and took over Denmark and E. Prussia. The allies took over Sweden so I think that both sides are trying to control the baltic. I gave france 6 of my surplus oil to help them out. Then I gave China the 6.7 oil that they needed. Hunter asked if I could protect him in the Indies but I can’t do that until I get attacked. I am cutting off Japans supply of oil from the U.S.

    President

USA 1940:    Today my plan is to had out some natural resources. I gave USSR 10 oil. Then I am planning on bringing my navy over by the Philippines back. So they don’t destroy my navy there and bring me into the war yet. I don’t have enough people to do anything if I were to join the war. Thats why I am doing this. Wait I am not going to do that. If I leave there I would loose the Philippines. Then I would have to join the war. Germany attacked belgium twice. They lost the first time. Then the second time Lane who is France decided to help with 1000. That was stupid!!! He was going to loose belgium anyway. So he wasted 1000 troops!! Now he only has 600 troops left. By the time I join the war France will be gone and we will not stand a whole lot of a chance!!!! Today was not a good day for the allies.

    President
USA 1941:    I still don’t have a a very big army. God Bless the USA!! I moved my navy back towards Hawaii. Japan came out with there navy and attacked me. I am FINALY IN THE WAR!!!!!!! USA, USA, USA. Get ready world the USA is coming for you! Great Britain is sending their navy from europe to help me in the Pacific. It will take them a while to get there. I am planning on doing nothing really today other than allying with every ally on the map. Great Britain moved there navy down by Australia so the U.S.A, Britain, and Netherlands we are all going to attack Japans navy. Japan attacked us first. With they help of GB and Netherlands we defeated the Japanese from taking pearl harbor.  But  Italy took over F2 and attack North Africa.

    President
USA 1942: Our grand plan is forming today. We are moving our most of the Allies navy to the Pacific ocean. We are planing on using all of our navy’s to attack Japan’s navy. some time soon. So we can take out Japan’s navy so they won’t attack me.  After that they we will try to go and defeat Germany. That will be pretty hard saying france got taken over today. And all of Europe is now a part of the Axis powers. They still haven’t attacked Russia. So Russia can’t join the war and help us out.

    President

USA 1943: Today my plan is to get my next mobilization then attack Japan’s Navy. We took out there first of Japans navy. Now I am going to wait until I can use GB help to destroy the last of there navy. We need USSR to join the war!!! They can destroy Japan. Then they could help us attack Germany after we get rid of Japan. Japan attacked NW China. Sense Austin isn’t here he is going to get taken over today. I have no idea what the Axis are thinking. I am hoping they don’t do anything until I can attack them. Now Japans navy is gone!! I am planning on taking some of my men to GB so we can attack Germany sometime soon. Finally Axis attacked USSR!!!!! USSR is in the game. Lets Go!!!

    President 

USA 1944: Today we are going to move all of our boat to the Eastern US. Pick up our guys then head over to Europe. We are going to us my 36 navy to attack F1. So they can’t help. Then have GB and France navy to attack F2 so they can’t help. Then we are going to use all of our navy to attack F3. So we can have some land in France. I think this plan will work. It will take a while because we have 2 navies by Japan and we need them to be on the other side of the US. We ran out of time today to get my navy moved on the other side of the US. I don’t know if we are going to have time to attack Germany.

    President 

USA 1945: Today is the last day of the simulation. We are going to loose and the axis have probably won the war. It is going to take to long to get our navies that are by Hawaii and get them over to help and start shoveling troops into Europe. I am still wanting to go with my plan of using the two little navies and getting F2 and F3 busy so they can’t help and try to take F3 back. I don’t know if that is going to work sense we don’t have a very big navy attacking F3 but we might as well try. What we should have done was not worried about Japan’s navy and started sending troops into Europe 2 years ago. Oh well I met all of my objectives. Japan took over Eastern USSR. Just for the fun of it. I thought this war was a little to long. That and it took to long to move everything. There were like a dozen more sea zones. Then the naves of every country were to small to move all the people. Like today I have 9,500 in the U.S.A and I have enough navy to take about 300 of them.

World War 2 Simulation

Germany  1938
As we learn about the simulation, my partner and I are coming up with good ideas and plans for the future. Will we win, I hope so. Nevertheless, we will do our best to work on and do our best.  We are meeting with our allies, thinking out a plan to take out our enemy before they attack us. We shall see what goes on.

Germany  1939
As war goes on, the Motherland has taken over the Netherlands and also taken out Great Britain’s Navy. This was a great win for the Motherland as we work on taking over the world. Our military is right now is taking over Poland with the help of U.S.S.R.  Together we can work to take over as much land as we can.

Germany  1940
As the year goes on, the motherland creates the plan for world domination. We are gathering our troops to move into Belgium. Our country invaded Belgium and now we have conquered more land. The motherland is now going to conquer the rest of Europe. We will win this war. I can tell that the Allies power are getting worried as we acquire more and more land.

Germany  1941
A lot is going on right now. Many countries are working together to acquire more land. Greece and Sweden have been taken over by the Axis Power as we move to surround France and once we get France, we will send help to Italy to help them with taking North Africa.

Germany  1942
As the war goes on, we come up new ways to fight the Allied Powers. We came up with a plan to invade the France. We want them to attack us in Belgium and then we will retaliate and destroy Britain and France.

Germany  1943
Today is the day, we will either take most of France or fail to do so. As the simulation goes on and is near the end, we are coming up with a plan that involves a lot of troops. We are going to take France head on with the help of Italy.

Germany  1944
Today has been a good day. We have taken all of France and now we are going to move troops to the east.  Once we defend the west, we will strength our territory to the east to stop the Soviet Union from taken Romania. Once we defend our land, we will attack Soviet Union. Will have already taken most of Europe and we will keep take more.

Germany  1945
Today is the last day of the war. In the last few years, we have taken almost all of Europe. Now we go to strength our eastern border and attack the Soviet Union. Our plans are to take as much of the Soviet Union as we can in the last day.

WW2 Simulation Journal: Great Britain 1

World War 2 Simulation

Great Britain 1 1938
I, Nikki, was the President of Great Britain, and my Prime Minister was Robin Regan.
When I had learned who was who for their countries, I immediately saw that my Allied countries, like Poland and Belgium could easily be taken by the psychotic people of Germany, and the USSR, the Axis powers.
This got me thinking of how to defend my friends. I knew that Poland would be wiped from the map in a year by the USSR and Germany, so I had to act fast. I tried to talk to Martika who had small countries that were next to Poland, but it didn’t help. Traitorous friends right? France was going to do nothing until she had to defend her country, so I was beside myself on this one.

Great Britain 1 1939
On top of assessing my situation to being a allied power, I have also considered being a Axis power because of this, “Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer,” saying. If I were to ally myself with the Axis powers, I would be closer to Germany, and I could easily move my troops through Germany until I was in Poland, and then declare war on Germany, so that I could take back Poland! I know that would be suicide, and that would take years to mobilize a lot of troops, and if I had so many troops in P1 of Poland, I would think that Germany would suspect that I would be a Traitor. I have two other back up plans, but I don’t think it will get me anywhere close to Poland, but it is worth a shot right? I
I was right about one thing last year, and i should trust my gut more often because my poor allied country, Poland, and Belgium, both fell today. I swear I will try to get the two countries back, but I’m sore scared now that France will fall soon.

Great Britain 1 1940
Today is a good day. Today I have gained the upper hand on my enemy! I am taking on of my other back up plans; Starve my enemy of natural resources! This is a risky game, but I figured that if I took resources that Germany would need, their rating would drop, and therefore be weaker, and when thy enemy is weak, you plunge thou sword through thy heart! Romantic right? So, what I am going today is several naval battles.  If my enemies supply troops to other countries by boat, then the number one enemy is my enemies ships, and therefore I shall attack ships, and then move my way up to Sweden and Norway to take away Germany’s source of Iron Ore.

Great Britain 1 1941
Keeping true to my words, I did destroy thy enemies ships! All of them, besides a USSR navy down in the Aegean Sea, which if they were to use that ship, my navy down there would wipe them out, but I have talked to the USSR’s Prime Minister. I had implemented the seed of a treaty, if the Allies are to win, we need the USSR! I also took over Sweden and Norway that was in the clutches of those filthy Nazi rats. This means I have successfully reopened the Baltic Sea, and no enemy can take that away from me, nor reach me, unless Japan decides to travel around, but I know they won’t be able to get by the U.S. I have successfully completed one of the many steps in my back up plan that I had! Go Great Britain!!

Great Britain 1 1942
Why, just why? I am so ticked today that my prime minister had decided to go take war with Italy when we have not knocked out their ships because then they would be able to supply more troops! JUST WHY? I wanted to take out Italy’s ships so that she couldn’t supply her colony, Libya, with more troops, but NOOOO! I lost this battle, but Italy has just waken the wrath inside me. I have also made a secret treaty with the USSR, and I know that they can’t attack Germany until Germany attacks them, so when that happens, they are joining the Allies, and therefore I will be able to move troops through the USSR to back the USSR up to take Poland back!

Great Britain 1 1943
I am going to wipe that smug little face off of Italy if it takes my last breath! I have given up hope for the Allies that are around Germany, even though I hold strong as a country, I know I won’t be able to take those countries back, but I can try! Always try, and if failure comes, well that is less troops on my enemies side then! But, back to Italy she took a lot of my British colonies away from me! I know I should have supplies troops, but the more wars Italy has with my small countries, the less troops I have to deal with in battling her. Wait, that sound confusing. Okay, what I mean is that I have troops in my small British Colonies, and the more she invades them, the more Disperse her troops became, and also trapping herself within my colonies as well! On another side note, I want to smack the leader of China! Like, come on, really? Your country is slowly being taking down, and your sitting there doing nothing? I stepped up to help, but I don’t have many troops, and I lose every single time I try to help China. I need a break, I am going to recompose myself before I do something I can’t fix.
Okay, I am back, and I guess curiosity really did kill that cat this time. I have learned that China thought she was already taken over by Germany, and so she did nothing. I want to say so many colorful things, but I will not be immature about this. If China wants to sit, and do nothing, then the Allies have lost altogether, and there is no hope then, on the downward spiral as well

WW2 Simulation Journal: Italy 1

Italy  1938

I am planning on watching the other countries to see what some of them are going to do,  so when I go to conquer a country I know who to avoid. I am thinking of moving troops into Northern Africa, and conquering those countries and taking those resources. I need to see if anyone has extra resources they could give me, so I can raise my rating.

Italy  1939

Since Germany is attacking the Netherlands, and are planning on attacking Poland too. I am staying out of the wars for now to see who is going to win, and if the Germans win I am going to ask them for some resources. I am also overhearing that Russia, Germany, and Romania are going to attack Poland. I cannot really do anything to help them, but I am going to help get France for Germany. Hopefully when I help Germany they will help me get North Africa.

Italy  1940

Today Germany is preparing to attack or draw France into its territory next to Belgium. I am going to help them by possibly attacking the French territory that is next to Italy. I am hopefully going to get more resources out of this agreement. I am also going to invade Albania and keep my troops there until I can get help from Bulgaria to attack Greece. After I take those countries over I am aiming to invade North Africa

Italy  1941

I have successfully gained Albania, and now I just need to conquer Greece. I am wanting to stay out of this attack on France so I might have a chance of surviving this war. I am working on getting help from Bulgaria to attack Greece. I was attacked! Yugoslavia attacked me in Albania, but I was victorious anyway. I have conquered Greece! I have also gained oil from Bulgaria, so I have more of the resources that I need.

Italy  1942

Today I am hoping to not have to attack France for Germany. I have convinced them to let me attack the French North Africa first. I was attacked by France and Great Britain in Lybia, but I beat them both. Now the French North Africa is almost defenseless, now is my time to strike! Well, that didn’t go very well at all, I lost in the battle for the French North Africa. Now I have to plan to defend Lybia, and attack the rest of North Africa.

Italy  1943

MY NAVY!!! My navy is gone!! How am I going to move troops into Lybia? Well, I do have around six hundred in Lybia. I have to try and get the rest of North Africa with only 680 some troops, it will take quite a bit of strategy. I have already gotten Egypt so the rest will come fairly easy, except for French North Africa. I am going to attack Palestine too. I am only going to take the countries I need.

Italy  1944

Today I am going to invade Palestine, and I am planning to only take Palestine, Trans-Jordan, Syria, French North Africa, and Iraq. After I get the countries to the east I will go attack the French North Africa again. I am close to obtaining all of my objectives, I just have to make sure I can hold the land once I obtain it. I have gained Palestine, but Great Britain is putting more troops into French North Africa. I do not think I have enough troops to defend Lybia from attack. It looks like the USSR is going to attack Romania, and I have sent troops to help Romania but I don’t know if that will help a whole lot.

Italy  1945

Today is the last day I have to get the Trans-Jordan, and Iraq. I have taken the Trans Jordan, but now I must take a big risk on attacking Iraq since they have 100 troops and I only have 87. I am going to attack Iraq still, but I also need to protect the lands I have gained. I also have to be ready for attack from French North Africa. I have gained Iraq now, and now I am going to defend Lybia. Well Lybia was attacked and taken by the British, and I saw it coming. Now I just have to protect the rest of North Africa I have gained. All that I have lost is only Lybia! 

WW2 Simulation Journal: Japan 1

World War 2 Simulation

Japan 1938; Orientation day – Today is the first day I saw the objectives. We have a lot of objectives to complete, not all of them seem quite easy. Unlike in WWI I am not alone this time, and based on my objectives I might need to have help from other countries. Also the people who I was allied with last time are no longer my allies, I need to take China, but the other lands I need to take are allies with a smart people  who I think know how to get things done. First off, I think I will take Philippines, as in my objectives. I also have a partner this time, so hopefully we get along. . Also, while I may be allied with some other countries, it seems a bit difficult to trust them, as we were enemies before.

Japan 1939 – We are in a tough situation. We need to attack the Philippines, however, if we do that we bring America in the war because they are guarding it. W can’t attack America’s navy either because that will also bring them into the war. I talked to Russia yesterday and we made something of an alliance. It’s best not to put full trust, as that gets you betrayed easily. For now we will not attack anyone until next turn. We need to focus on our movement for now. We will move 500 from Manchukuo to NE China, we will then move 500 from NE China to SE China giving us 2000 in SE China. On our next attack turn, we will attack French indo China with 1000. Even though they have 200, we need to be expecting back up for that country, so that’s why we sent such a huge number. While this is getting tough because the other allies are taking so long to attack, we might not be able to do movement this round, which would be really bad considering we need the movement in order to take out China. Russia is doing some smooth talking to our allies, it seems almost to good to be true, so they should be cautious.
– We have just taken French IndoChina. Instead of waiting for movement, we moved 1,000 of our troops that were already there into indochina because we did not want to waste time in getting it. We won with little opposition. We also got some resources. Our allies have taken quite a lot of land with Russia too. We have a secret alliance with Russia at the  moment. We won’t really call on them until later when we might need a double front war with China.

Japan 1940- Today would be a good day to take out New Guinea. We started off with movement for Axis powers today, so we did yesterdays plan today. Dutch East Indies Was taken by us. It does’t look like anyone can  send help to them since their land is neutral. We send a surplus of troops there to take it, it was 293 against 50, so it was a pretty good win. Next we plan to move into China, or something along those lines. The plan is kind of unclear. Also Russia is now in our country. They  need some of our land no doubt. I think the only reason the purposefully lost points so that they could gain trust to betray Germany and Us, Japan. We will not share resources to keep them less powerful. I heard Russia had an 8 rating in their  eastern part of the country. So we are planning on attacking China with Russia’s help for the time being. Maybe we can reach an agreement over something later.

Japan 1941- Today we moved are navy by each of America’s navies except Hawaii because they are to far away to move in one turn. We plan on attacking all the navies at once. We succeeded, we took Pearl Harbor. We also destroyed pretty much all of the American navy. Next we need to focus on China and Australia. Germany is leaving their country so bare to Russia. Also the United states said they will no longer be sending us with oil. It was kind of funny because France tried to send troops to America, thinking we were going to attack them, when really we had no want to attack them. They thought it was clever, but they weren’t allowed to. We didn’t do much today again, but there is always tomorrow.

Japan 1942- Today is kind of like an all out go for it. I will discuss it with my partner on taking the Philippines and taking some of China.
– Immediately we decided to take Philippines with 200 troops against 100. Great Britain sent 100 total troops against us, so it might make this a little more difficult. I don’t think we can win agains their forces. Somehow we won, but we are going to need to set more troops in the territory of Dutch east Indies.
– We moved our navy back to get ready for an attack on the British navy. We also moved troops into the French Indo China so we can set up for an attack on the Burma, we need plenty of troops there so we can get the rubber that is there. Next we plan on taking Hawaii just because we have troops there and we can. The only problem I see is America sending their navy over to us. They have 40 and we have 50, which is just enough to win slightly. Hopefully they don’t send in troops.
– We just attacked Britain’s navy. They sent in reinforcements thinking that might help, we just destroyed their whole navy in the process. We then attacked Hawaii. It was kind of funny, we lost, but they only have 5 troops. I think we can take them out next time. We decided to use our 30 navy that we moved back to Japan, and stick 30 troops on it. We plan on taking Hawaii this time. Then with the navy right next to Hawaii, we plan on destroying the last bit of American Navy. After That we plan to take back our navy, and use it to guard against the American navy. Their country grows stronger every day. So we need to be careful here.
– They just sent 40 troops to Hawaii, looks like we won’t be taking it over. Oh well, we can at least destroy their navy.

Japan 1943 – Today was the day we for sure decided to take some from China. We sent in 1,000 troops. we split the amount between SE China and French Indo China, so that there would still be a decent amount of troops there. It took a long time for China to make a decision on what to do. They finally settled on sending in 700 to their 900 troops against my 1,000. Plus great Britain sent in 200, so i will admit I was a little concerned that we were going to lose. Then suddenly it turned out, we won, with 300 troops left. I must I was shocked. Our next goal is NC China, but we have to wait until our next turn.
– We successfully took over NC China. By a huge win. 1,200 agains 1,000, we won’t with 700 left. Also Britain is playing quite well into our hands. They are moving troops out of the place we want to take, so we will attack them next round. All of Asia is Is almost ours, I can almost taste it. Next we will move onto Burma, that way we can get more resources, and stop Britain from getting anything. Then they will stop supplying France, well that’s what I’ve heard from Germany. They plan to attack France, so it will work out for both of us. I plan to send 900 into Burma so I can take them out easy. They are sending in troops From India, wow this could not be better. They have 100 troops there left, easy picking for us to take this now. Almost all of Asia is ours.

Japan 1944 – Today we will start a 3 front war so we can take the rest of Asia. I guess we  could take Australia now that we are running out of places to take. I already expect that the other countries can see my goals of taking the rest of Asia. But they have no way of getting help since I’m attacking Tibet, India, and NW China at once. However to ensure I can take them I’m attacking them in a certain order. First I will attack India, because Britain has a decent rating I think, I don’t want them to send the rest of their forces into Tibet since I’m not sending that many troops in there, about 100 against their 300. Then I will attack NW China since they are the biggest, and once I take them out they won’t be able to send any troops to Tibet. Then I will take out Tibet because it’s the last one and will have not that many troops left. It all seems like to a good plan. Even if something else happens, I’m prepared to fight anything off. I think Great Britain isn’t doing so well because they are sending in too much troops to help other countries, but they are just wasting troops there.
– We almost took up half of the period just on Axis power. For whatever reason, the allies have not set the 10 minute rule. Had they done that it could have really helped them.

Japan 1945 – Today is the last day. Wasting my time on Australia is really pointless. What will I do, send 88 troops over every time only to have them killed? I only have 88 navy so that’s why I can only send 88 troops over. I will just be wasting turns to try and take it. And Russia is pretty strong, and I don’t think I have the troops to fight them and take their land. So at this point I’m not sure if I want to attack or just do nothing the whole period.
– Well it’s the last battle, so I will put all of my troops on the border of Russia, and attack them with all we’ve got. Perhaps America will do something while I am attacking Russia. Well they really can’t, I’ll leave 300 troops in Japan to fight them off if they attack because they don’t even have 300 navy by Pearl Harbor. I can’t say I’m really worried that much, but I wouldn’t put it past America to get help from other countries on whether they should attack me. It’s kind of all in the air at this point.
– Well we attacked Russia with 1,600 troops. They send 2,500 troops against us. they won with only 75 troops. Had we had more time, we could have taken them over, but we ran out of time. Ah well, we still had all of our territory. It was a good run, and I can honestly say, without my parter, I probably would have never remembered to transfer resources or kept track of how many we had, so good job parter.

WW2 Simulation Journal: Soviet Union 1

HistorySimulation.com

USSR 1 1938: My goal is to stay neutral as much as possible. I need to be able to conquer my goals without having to fight Germany. If I would get attacked by either the Allies or Axis powers then I could easy loose my land. I am going to side with the Axis in secrete for now they don’t attack. Right now my goals are simple and if I can avoid fighting in my plans that will be great. I know that I would have to attack Finland and Poland but I still need to do that soon or my chance might fade away.

USSR 1 1939: Of course taking out Poland would be our first choice. The USSR needs the oil. Negations are stressful and when they were done we were allies with Rumania and Germany. Taking down Poland was a little to easy and they were wiped out. The only other thing we did was transfer the resources in Poland to Romania. In our agreement Poland is split in half and because we get more resources we plan on giving some to Germany once we can get some more to sustain ourselves. Our next move was to anxious Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia. Once we done that I felt we accomplished much, but I still felt that we didn’t have much power in the Baltic Sea so we can try to take Finland.

USSR 1 1940: Staying out of the war would be the best choice for now. Let the other powers fight and break down to nothing. My goal to take down Finland was delayed due to the USSR’s rating not being enough. Even though I lost, my goal is still there and I still have my land. Rumania and I had an agreement that we got the resources from Poland in exchange they got Bessarabia in their control. Even though they have it now we will get it back. The only thing I’m worried about is them attacking us.

USSR1 1941: Annexing Bessarabia from Rumania right after I gave it to them in exchange for resources was a sly plan but it helped complete my objective. I have little fear that Rumania would try to take it back. There is also the fact that Germany is busy with France and Great Britain. As for right now we are still neutral and I’m baking on staying like this to keep the pressure off so I can take Finland before Great Britain decides to move to Norway and then east which could foil my plans.

USSR 1 1942: This year was early simple. As the USSR we finely got Finland due to their weakened troops form our loss of the battle in 1940. I am so proud that no one is attacking me. Although it does suck that our navy in the Baltic Sea got wiped out. I think that Great Britain is going to try to have us join them but there is know way I’m getting myself caught up in that mess. Like the saying goes hit two birds with one stone, I’m letting my enemies forces dirndl down so if an attack come I can at least try to survive. Once Rumania seems possible and my troops are moved I’m going in for their land.

USSR 1 1943: I planed to attack Rumania for their land. Due to that being the only way to get their territory. Although I didn’t account on the troops they would be able to defend with and my attack failed. To my defense I did try to take it by sending a lot of troops to the point that they were wakened. I’m not stupid so I won’t be attacking again. Germany will just move a portion of their troops and it would be best of I did the same. I’m gong to loose if I attack again so I will just stand by and let them come to me.

USSR 1 1944: I waited and planned to move troops to defend my border. I took some out of Serbia because they had a better chance of defending than my western troops. I know I’m going to be attacked seeing how easily France just got take over. Japan also has to acquire some land from my eastern territory. I think I have enough troops in each spot to defend and I can now only hope.

USSR 1 1945: I was attacked by Germany so we were forced to join the Allis and was able to defend the Ukraine. The Japanese then attack the Eastern USSR and I was able to defend without loosing any land. The war ended with me have almost all of my plans going perfectly and I put up a good fight against Rumania.

Germany 1938
Today we learned the basics and rules of the games. I hope to make an alliance with Russia tomorrow and hopefully they will help me take down Poland easily, then Italy will I hope help me with France. I don’t trust Russia, but hopefully after they help they will be weak enough for me to take control of. I need to gain control of Great Britain as soon as possible, I know they will attack me as soon as they are able.

Germany 1939
Today we took control of Poland, which was one of our objectives. We got Russia to sign an alliance, which was needed because I need to keep my enemies close. We’ve also gained Norway, Denmark, and the Netherlands.  I know that Great britain needs to protect Belgium, so I’m going to attack Great Britain first so they can’t both attack me. Italy is going to help me take down a large part of France tomorrow, so I hope everything goes as planed.

Germany 1940
We didn’t gain control of France today. We were hoping that by taking belgium wed have them attack us, but they unfortanely didn’t. I honestly don’t have a plan to take down Great Britain or France, but hopefully my allies and I, Germany together will have enough that we can take them quickly and efficiently without much loss.

Germany 1941
Today I feel like we are at a stale mate. Tomorrow I plan on going to war with France, and if I have to attack alone then I will. I don’t trust Russia, and I will be putting more defense on my border with them, and get Italy to send most of their forces to help attack France. Today we lost our navy, so I don’t know how we will help Italy gain the lower land that it needs.

Germany 1942
Today we moved troops into and towards Italy. I no longer trust Russia and none of the Axis want to offer them any help. On Monday we will be attacking the southern part of France, and hopefully will will win. I want to have a spare 1000 troops outside still in Italy so if they do attack us back after we gain the land we can set up a trap, and attack the top part with the left over northern troops. I hope this works my allies are relying on me.

Germany 1943
Today we had great victory! We took control over lower France, so this way we can help Italy get control of the more southern countries by making Great Britain have to go further to take troops to move them. Tomorrow we are declaring war on the top and west part of France, then moving quickly to help Romina. I know that judging from Russia’s moves so far they don’t want to use a lot of troops, and their rating is very low so we will attack the Ukraine and try to win that land so it will be more difficult for them to attack Romina. We will also strengthen our eastern border because I don’t like the build up of troops that has been going on there.

Germany 1944
We finally captured all of France! luckily Great Britain fell for our trap and send some troops to us, so we easily took all the troops they sent, weakening them. Tomorrow I plan on attacking Russia, and trying to get some of the oil so we will have enough. I know our progress is slow but I would rather fight slow sure battles then quick unreliable battles.
 
Germany 1945
Today on the last day we tried to capture the Ukraine, nut we lost the battle. I was kindle annoyed today because i felt like people were just trying to waste time and went doing anything. I was glad that we tried and if we could’ve had five minutes more we could’ve taken the ukraine, but at least we kept or original land.

World War Two Lesson Plan Student Journal: Germany

Germany 5 1938

It’s a sunny day in Germany. And one full of adventure and promise. And more importantly victory. Our plan as the rulers of Germany is to come in fast and strong to show that we’re not here to play or mess around. We’re going to take a bunch of surrounding area and use that to our advantage. Hopefully we can strike fear into our opponents. I know they’re kind of intimidated already because one of the other countries told us so. I also think that they’re afraid of us as a whole allied system than just one country. And already our country is pretty impressive. We’re super advanced and have great military leaders. How we can lose.. I have no idea. 

Germany 5 1939

So there is some news. We did take some of the countries we had wanted. We took some of Poland which was an objective. We gained a few resources which isn’t bad but doesn’t really do anything for us. It does enough I suppose, We do have more than we did so that’s a plus. We also took Norway which we wanted but we didn’t really do what we wanted to do with it. The goal was to take Norway then Denmark so we could more our navy into the Baltic sea to keep it safe. But we were unable to obtain Denmark and move our navy to safety so our navy was lost on this day. Which is a bit upsetting because there were so many things we could have done with it. This is war though and we have to be prepared to lose some. Overall it was a better day than most. As for now we just have to play it by ear and have many ideas of how this could go. 

Germany 5 1940

Today the omnipotent power behind the simulation was gone so not much got done. I really hope it doesn’t get extended an extra day. I don’t like being the Prime Minister to Sage. He is extremely controlling and really annoying. All he does is tell me to do what he doesn’t want to do and he never tells me anything about what our country is doing. If I wasn’t such a loyal person I would tell the entire class all our secrets just to make him angry. I’m sure someone in my position would feel the same. Anyway the last piece of information I was given was that we were going to take France. I believe the best strategy (and possibly the only strategy) would to move our troops through Belgium into France 1 and have Italy move into France 3 simultaneously. That way the French have to split some of their troops up. I know they’ll probably get some reinforcements from Britain and what not but if we sent enough troops we could probably do it. There’s also a secret alliance that we’ve formed with the USSR. The only reason the USSR allied with us is because the US made them angry. That’s something I would do. Back to the point. Let’s see how the day goes.

Germany 5 1941

WHOOOOOOOOOOO! We totally won that battle with France! I had no idea it was going to work out that way. I literally had no faith in what Sage was doing. I was wrong. That. Was. Impressive. I feel awesome about that. I’m shocked. I really am. But in a good way. This kind of shows how great our army is and how everyone should be shaking like little girls in their boots at our mighty power and such. Even I, myself, am in awe of such power. So as of now felling pretty good (: The rest of France fell like the building blocks of little kids. It was awesome. After this I don’t really know what is next. Only time will tell. 

Alright. There’s more time passed. We took Belarus as well as Sweden. 

Germany 5 1942

Well. A prime minister is gone one day and wouldn’t you know

WW2 Simulation Journal: Japan 1

Japan 1 1938

Today is one of the most important days. Today we find out the rules, and what we are going to decided to do to reach our objectives. The different thing about this simulation is that not only do we have our armies going to war, we have to worry about natural resources. We have a good standing with our natural resources right now, but countries will be after the resources.  I’m going to try to get Japans overall rating up with natural resources, then trade resources with my allies if I have a way of getting them there. It’s going to really important that we keep up with our transfers to help with our rating. Also, filling out the natural resource spreadsheet is going to be important so we know where our resources are going, or who we are getting resources from. Our first goal is to get all of Asia and then humiliate the U.S navy in the Pacific.  We are deciding to take over Asia first so we can get an overall higher rating to help us with defeated the U.S. The U.S. has a high amount of natural resources, which will go into their rating. We need to have a higher rating than them so we will be able to destroy them. They only have 200 troops in the pacific we have 490. Hopefully they won’t see it coming and don’t move even more navy over or ask for anyone to aid them, and we can destroy them easily. Detail is key. Tomorrow is war.

Japan 1 1939

Today our plan of attack is to start taking down the US Navy. I’m hoping that our allies will help us out if it is needed. Germany has already declared war on Netherlands with Great Britain help. This is an interesting way to start the war up Germany is victorious. We have a strong axis power, which will help benefit us. I’m very torn about going to war with the United States because they give our country so much natural resources we need to gain more territory with natural resources so when the United States goes down we still have natural resources. Our first plan of attack is to attack French Indo China. We have a plan of moving so many troops down so we will be prepared if we get attacked from the sea or land. Germany has declared war on Poland. This will be in our favor because they are high in natural resources. All of our Axis powers have a secret alliance to share natural resources with each other when it is needed.  Germany is victorious. Romania and USSR have declared war on Poland they are victorious. The Axis powers have complete control over Poland. The Axis power also has Netherlands now. We are just going to let Germany and USSR do their own strategies because it is going well for them and they are gaining natural resources. We have officially attack French Indo China. We are victorious. We have gained natural resources which was our goal we needed rubber but we are hoping we can move through Thailand to get to Burma to get rubber.

Japan 1 1940

This year we plan on setting up more battles and making movement to take down the US Navy. We are making movement down the West Pacific coast so we can get to the Philippians and New Guinea. Our goal today is take New Guinea so we can take the natural resources like rubber that we need. We took over all the Dutch East Indies so we gained the rubber we needed plus more. We gave some rubber to our allies for a trade of help if we need it at some point. We had a surplus of rubber by 23 it was a good trade. Great Britain tried to attack us and loss a humiliating fight. They didn’t take into consideration our natural resources effect on our army rating. Reaching our goal today was a great accomplishment.

Japan 1 1941

Our goal for this year is to take down the US Navy. We have enough natural resources to destroy their navy. They supply us with natural resources but since we took over the West Dutch Indies we have enough natural resources for ourselves. We are sending some of our surplus of natural resources to other countries to help them become strong incase we need them to aid us in war. The USSR and Finland have just signed an alliance. It looks like that are going to take over Norway. I’m trying to stand guarded about the USSR. I have a not so good feeling that they are going to try an attack us because they are in need of natural resources. We have just attacked the US Navy by Pear Harbor, we are victorious. We always attacked the Aluentian Islands and we were victorious. We have met our goal and destroyed the US Navy. Now we need to focus on taking almost all of Asia. China and Great Britain are weak it seems or they don’t make very good decisions. I feel like this will be smooth sailing from here on out..

Japan 1 1942

This year we are plan are staying strong in our own country. We know that USSR is going to try to attack us for our natural resources. They are trying to make an alliance with us but I don’t trust them at all. They gathered resources from Great Britain and are trying to make a deal to get resources with the United States. Many people are scared of the USSR but, they just have big numbers with bad ratings due to the lack of their natural resources. I wouldn’t trust the USSR with a dirty sock. We took over the Philippines with just our navy. It seems like the US is starting to fall slowly which is good for us. Russia needs to go with them. Japan is going to try and destroy Great Britain so they can’t help the USSR attack. Great Britain is making poor choices and attacking countries just so they can’t move troops. I feel like they need to be more focused on other things. They are very paranoid and it’s just hurting them in the long run. We are now going to attack the British navy, and Hawaii. We have taken down the British navy and they are devastated. I have a strong feelings though they that they will try to get back at us for taking their navy. I don’t think they stand a chance against us. United States is victorious over the battle for Hawaii. We have taken out almost all the Navy in the Pacific. This has benefited us a lot we won’t have to deal with a two sided war.

Japan 1 1943

This year is going to be an important year in Japan history. We will be invading China as much as we can to gain most of the land in Asia. We have a strong military rating when they do not. They do have Great Britain to help aid them, when we have no one. If Great Britain tries to aid them in our battle with South Central China we will attack Burma. We are victorious and have gain south central China. We are now fishing attacked the US navy near Pearl Harbor. We want to destroy their navy so they can’t bring allies over, or come closer to our home land. We have destroy all their navy in the Pacific. We planned this out perfectly in my eyes. If we would have waited another day then we probably wouldn’t have been able to take out their navy because they would have had a plenty of time to get aid from other countries. Even though Great Britain still didn’t aid China we are going to try and take Burma. We need Great Britain out of the way so we can take Australia so we don’t have to worry about more troops during that war. First we are going to take North Central China. This is going perfectly China is moving their troops from North Central China into Tibet. The less troops we have to worry about the better. We are victorious we are slowly taking over almost all of Japan. The US took troops from their homeland to make a navy and are attacking Japan Navy. They destroyed us because we forgot to move our troops closer back home. That’s fine though we will let them have a small taste of what victory is like, because they obviously don’t know what they are doing. We have attack Burma and we are victorious. We are rich in natural resources.

Japan 1 1944

Our goals are slowly happening year by year. We are going to try to finish our countries objectives and take the rest of Asia and start movement down to Australia. We plan on taking Australia from Great Britain. We plan on attacking India first out of Asia. That is owned by Great Britain which will give us a better chance of taking the rest of Asia because they have a higher military rating than China. Then after India we plan on taking North West China and then move our way up to Tibet. After all of Asia is conquered than we will start making plans to conquer Australia. France has completely taken over by the Axis powers such as Italy and Germany. We have conquered India and are now going to war with North West China. We are victorious in North West China also. We have taken over Tibet now. We have all of Asia conquerer and belonging to Japan. There is no better feeling than completing goals.

Japan 1 1945

This is our final year and our plan was to take Australia but we don’t believe we will be able to do that. We only have 88 navy and we need to move troops down to New Guinea it would take us a lot of time to move the troops we just don’t have that time. We had to use our Navy to defeat the US which took a toll on our navy. Now we plan on taking the Eastern USSR. We will just slowly move our troops up until we have enough troops to attack. The USSR is victorious over us by 75 men not a bad thing considering they doubled our number of what we said it. We could have taken them over because now they only have 75 men left in the Asia remaining but due to time we didn’t have time. This war went really well. We only didn’t meet one of our objectives which is an improvement from the last time we did a simulation. I’m glad the way it turned out.

World War Two lesson Plan Student Journal: Italy

Italy 5 1938

I can’t begin military action until 1940 (Tuesday) so I’m not going to do much tomorrow. Once I’m able to begin moving, however, I’m going to attack France with Germany. They’re strong, so we want to take out as much of them as we can right away.

Germany’s also going to help me take out Northern Africa once we take out some of the more menacing countries. I’m also going to need to find out how to attain some national resources since I’m really lacking in all of them right now. I’m going to ask Germany to give me some of their resources because they’re planning on taking out some of the smaller countries and they’ll be gaining resources pretty soon.

Italy 5 1939

I can’t start any military operations today. I have to wait until 1940, so today I’m just watching everything that’s going on. Germany is taking over Norway, the Netherlands, and Poland. He wants to secure the Baltic Sea. He’s also taking over Belgium so that he can get into France, and then on Tuesday when I can begin military operations we’re going to attack France. He’s attacking F1 and I’m attacking F2 so that they have to fight on both fronts and hopefully won’t be able to defend themselves much.

I’m moving my Navy in order to back Germany in taking over Denmark, but I’m not attacking at all so I’m not going against my objective. Just gotta look menacing. I’m leaving some of my Navy by Italy, however, so that I’ll be able to use it to attack French North Africa.

Germany is going to help me attack French North Africa on Tuesday, and then I can meet that objective. 

Germany got Belgium, so we should be good to attack France on Tuesday.

France decided not to let me into the Mediterranean, so I decided not to go through. I can’t attack yet. 

Italy 5 1940

Today Germany and I are attacking France. We want to control France and then Great Britain so that the U.S. won’t have a place to keep their troops so that we don’t have to worry about them as much since Japan ran out of time to attack them in 1939.

France has 2,000 troops in F2 which is where I’m planning on attacking, so I’m thinking about sending in 3,000 troops so that I can win the battle. Even if I lose, I’ll still have 1,500 troops and I think that should be enough to take over French North Africa, Egypt, and the other countries in the Middle East.

I need to convince Germany to give me some natural resources. Sage says he only has coal to give away and he’s been giving that to other countries, so I think I’m going to need to wait until we gain some more land and gain the natural resources from there.

France took out my troops, so I’m kind of upset about that. I really didn’t expect France to be so strong, but it’s okay because we weakened it. 

I’m talking to Germany about attacking Yugoslavia so that I can get into Albania and Greece and take them over.

Great Britain and France took over Libya which isn’t good for me because I lost more troops and now it’s going to be hard to take over French North Africa.

Italy 5 1941

Today Germany is going to take over Yugoslavia so I can move into that land and take over Greece and Albania. I’m wanting Germany to take Yugoslavia so I can preserve some of my troops and still be able to take the Middle East.

Romania and Hungary were the ones who attacked Yugoslavia and won. I’m going to move 500 troops over there. Germany took over F2 and I’m going to move 200 troops in there to help defend it to honor my alliance with Germany.

I’m going to attack Albania first because France doesn’t have any troops in there, and if they move in their troops from Greece they won’t have a defense bonus. Hopefully from there I can attack Greece and win so that I’ll acquire that land. From there I want to move into the Middle East and start taking over those countries. I would have started doing that sooner if France and GB hadn’t wiped out my troops in Libya.

I got Albania! I’m going to be gone tomorrow, so I’m giving Sage some war slips and I hope he’ll attack Greece for me tomorrow. I’d also like him to move into the Middle East and start taking over those countries because I’m going to need them.

Italy 5 1942

I wasn’t here today, but if I had been I would have attacked Greece first with all 500 of my troops. If I won, I would have then used my Navy to pick up my remaining troops from Greece and 300 of my troops from Italy. Then I would have gone into Syria and taken that over because it isn’t being defended. Then I would attack Iraq because Great Britain only has fifty troops there. I then would have moved into Trans-Jordan, Palestine, the Suez Canal, and then Egypt.

I would get some natural resources for this, so I would be a little stronger. This is why I wouldn’t go into Egypt before Syria and Iraq. I’d want to have some extra strength first so I might have a little better chance at defeating France.

I would attack Libya, but France and Great Britain have troops there and France’s strength makes me nervous. Hopefully I’d win and then be able to take over French North Africa, but once again France has troops there and they’re a lot stronger than I expected.

However, I gave some war slips to Sage and I’m counting on him to at least attack Greece for me tomorrow.

Italy 5 1943

Sage did take over Greece for me on Friday, so I attacked the French Navy so that I’ll be able to reach the Middle East. I also took out the British Navy so that they’ll be out of my way. I’m picking up 111 troops from Greece and then moving into Syria so that I can start taking out the Middle Eastern countries.

Great Britain has been trying to convince me to switch over to the Allies, but things don’t look hopeless for Germany yet so I’m going to wait. However, the United States has a lot of troops, so things aren’t looking too great for the Axis Powers, and I’ll probably have to switch sides eventually. This will help me retain my land.

I took Syria. Tomorrow I’m going to take Iraq, Palestine, and Trans Jordan.

Italy 5 1944

Well things are starting to look bad for Germany and I’m pretty sure Great Britain is planning on taking over Italy, but I still need to get the Middle Eastern countries. I’m going to pick up 111 more troops from Greece so that I have a little more power in the ME, and then I’m moving the rest of my groups in Greece up towards Italy so I can at least try to defend myself. I think I’m pretty much past being able to join the Allies, which is too bad because Germany’s going to be defeated but at least I’m still able to work toward my objectives.

I got Palestine, but I still need Iraq and that makes me nervous because I think Great Britain is pretty strong, and I’m not sure I’ll be able to take them out. I need to do it though, so I’ll just make an attempt. 

Italy 5 1945

I signed an alliance with the United States so hopefully they’ll restrain from attacking me. However, I still plan to continue taking over the countries in the Middle East which is why I don’t want to sign an alliance with Great Britain or France.

I attacked Iraq and Trans-Jordan and got both of them. I’m going to pick up some troops from Italy and bring them into the ME so I at least have a chance of getting Libya back.

Great Britain is advancing towards my troops, so I wanted to take 98 troops from Italy to have more defense, but Great Britain is going to attack Italy from France so I’ll leave them there to help retain my territory.

They attacked and I don’t have any troops left but I defended and still had my land left. He attacked me again, but I sent in my 13 troops from Greece and won. Unfortunately he attacked me a third time and I didn’t have any troops left to defend, so I lost my country.

Overall I think I did a pretty good job at at least attempting my objectives.
