Japan
Period 5
1938
As we set course to start another world war I am very unsure of my plan. At this moment I am most focused on getting the rubber I need and on conquering more lands with oil so that if America stops giving me oil it won’t hurt me too much. If America quits giving me oil I will definitely attack them.

Japan
Period 5
1939
Early on I was able to get some rubber from the east dutch indies. I wanted more but Hunter was only willing to give me 5. So he signed it over to me and then a few turns later I took over east dutch indies. When I took it over that was all he had left. Nobody helped him. Since I declared a lot of war it took up a lot of time. As a result of this Germany was not able to do movement. Since Germany was not able to move their navy it was destroyed. Germany now has no navy and is blaming me. Honestly I think it’s kind of funny. I have a good army and navy. Things are looking good for me. All I really have to fear is America. I plan to wait as long as possible to attack America. I want to keep them out of the war as much as possible.

Japan
Period 5
1940
I conquered more land today and things are looking good. The only thing I fear is attacking the American navy. If it were up to me I would just keep them out of the war but I need to remove their navy from the pacific. I plan to take out their navy and take the Philippines. I also need to take more action in China. I need to completely take China over.

Japan
Period 5
1941
I took out the majority of the U.S. navy today but lost over half of my navy in the process because all the navy’s close to it decided to come in and help. The navies remaining around pearl harbor are very weak and I plan to take them out tomorrow. I also took the Philippines today. I feel the stress of the war coming over me as we go deeper into this. I need to take over China and the rest of Asia but I am uncertain how I can do that now that America is in the war. I don’t have very much confidence but I can’t show that. If I show a lack of confidence then people may think Japan is weak and would be easy to take over. I still have a lot of troops so I should be able to hold my own. I am starting to question the intelligence of the Allied powers. France was taken over today and they did almost nothing to help them.

Japan
Period 5
1942
Not much happened today. I didn’t really do anything because I was too worried about being attacked. I fear that America is going to come for me. I fear that my navy will not make it another day. This doesn’t affect me much but I still cannot believe that Great Britain has made no attempt to get back France.

Japan
Period 5
1943
My navy was wiped out today. The US has gotten much stronger and their navy has largely increased in size. The allies powers honestly seem kind of dumb. I took over all of China today and Great Britain did absolutely nothing to help them. They have 1400 troops right by me and they have not once made an attempt to take China back. I’m not even sure if they know that those troops are there. I honestly am starting to think that America isn’t even going to do anything to me. My stress is leaving and my focus is shifting to to gaining more territory. I am going to stay weary for a little bit just to make sure that America or Great Britain does not attack me.

Japan
Period 5
1944
I am fairly certain that Great Britain and America are not going to attack me. So I made an attempt at eastern USSR today which failed. Although it was not a complete failure. I sent in 1000 troops to face their 1500 not realizing that the eastern troops are strong than the west. Even with their stronger troops they ended with about 111 troops. I am going to move troops close to them and take easter USSR tomorrow. I plan to make an attempt at Siberia and India tomorrow. I want Burma also but that would be a suicide mission at this point and the fight would not be worth the reward.

Japan
Period 5
1945
Today was the last day. Not everything went as plan but I am very happy with the outcome. I went this whole war without being attacked on land once. My navy was whipped out but thats it for being attacked. I took over all of China and Eastern USSR. I attacked Siberia but did not have enough troops or time to take it over. I wanted to attack India but did not have the time. It’s pretty clear the Axis won. The only sour thing is that right at the last second F3 was attacked by the allies and the other axis powers didn’t know how much they were sending and didn’t send enough. So as a result of that we lost the F3 right at the last second.

WW2 Simulation Journal: Germany 5

WW2 Simulation
Germany 4 1938
We stand at the dawn of a war that will put Europe underneath the heel of the Fatherland. We shall unite with our Axis brothers in Italy, Japan, Romania, and Bulgaria to crush the the great powers for the crimes they have committed against us with the treaty signed in Versailles. I hope to avoid a massive two front war like before by eliminating the Western European powers before attacking the USSR. I also intend to help my much weaker ally Italy gain strength and aid us in conquest of Africa and the Soviet Union. Hopefully, we’ll be able to outplay our enemies and secure the empire and land the German people need.

Germany 5 1939

So begins our ruthless conquest for all of Europe and eventually the world. We made the obvious first moves right away by taking the P1 region of Poland and Denmark. Poland was an easy capture as it was isolated away from everyone else and Denmark, being connected to Germany, undefended, and half of the countries required to hold the Baltic Sea, was a natural choice to attack. While we make our own way, the weakness of Italy and their lack of resources makes them hard to use and the distance of Japan makes it hard for us to help each other out.

Our biggest ideas were to take over Scandinavia (Norway and Sweden, align with Finland against USSR eventually). and begin moving troops to the puny border countries between us and those French swine. We took the Netherlands, both to secure a footing (since France moved 1000 troops into Belgium.) In 1940, we, alongside the Italians, hope to surround and crush the French before moving on to Britain.

So far, my biggest worry is of Great Britain. They are a daring group. They used military force to conquer Sweden, something I did not anticipate in the slightest. And because our Asian allies taking too long to wage war, our navy was destroyed by the British and Polish (Poland’s last revenge, I suppose). This complicates our goals of taking Norway and helping Finland. At this point, we might have to go around the Baltic coast to reach Norway and Sweden. We also aligned with Yugoslavia by threat of force, but I am skeptical as to whether they will keep their alliance.

One of our other goals is to (hopefully finally be able to) move some of our troops to Italy and help them secure north Africa and specifically, the Suez Canal, which will allow us and the Italian to pass to Asia to help Japan and Japan to help us. The British are small in number in Africa, so as long as Russia doesn’t come to help them, we should be able to sweep through Africa and get to the Middle East, where Britain sits on the mother load of oil imports. And as soon as we begin to move against the Soviet Union, I also want get Japan to help us crush the Soviet Union from two fronts, in a sort of ironic “Ha ha how does it feel to have to fight two fronts? It sucks. I would know.” Additionally, we now how some oil reliance on secret ally Romania, so we can weed off Russian imports until we can take Caucasus

In short: Take France and Belgium tomorrow, start attacking North Africa, and see what we can do with Great Britain, Norway, and USSR.

Overall, a relatively successful day.

Germany 5 1940

Today could’ve gone better, I suppose. France clearly knows we are coming. They and British along with the Belgians tried to hold the last obstacle to conquest of France, but they all fell to our military might. However, their defense left us with less troops than satisfiable, so we must begin moving troops from our annexed North to conquer France. In addition, we will begin moving troops south to help Italy take the key areas along the southern coast of the Mediterranean. I hope our troops with Italy’s will be able to crush the British’s colonies and take the valuable resources there. Italy will also hopefully be valuable in sending troops into southern France, forcing a divide in France’s forces and allowing us both to conquer those cheese-eating surrender monkeys.

I hope that, with the capture of France, North Africa, and the Middle East (along with Yugoslavia, who I was correct to assume would betray us), I will then turn our attention to the Soviet Union. I want to leave the Soviets completely isolated (Britain could offer little-to-no help to the USSR, being an island with a navy that could only transport 300 or so troops at a time.) I want to slam Russia from the south through the Middle East with Italy and through the West with Italy, Romania, and Bulgaria. I want to divide their forces and leave them scattering. I also want Japan to push in the East, but he is unwilling to attack them, which is unfortunate. However, hopefully he will secure the British colonies and commonwealth states there to trap and weaken Britain and secure a wealth of resources. Hopefully, there is still a chance yet for Japan to attack in the east.

Tomorrow should be a big day.

Germany 5 1941

1941 was a slow year, unfortunately. It was merely setting up our future thrashing of France. Italy send half of its troops into southern France and managed to defeat the French, a happy surprise to us all considering Italy’s total weakness. However, his attack on French North Africa ended in relative failure. However, hopefully Italy will be able to ship a full squad of my troops to thrash the rest of the French and then move with the Italians east through Africa into those sweet resource-rich Middle East countries.

We’ve been pretty liberal in sending aid toward our Allies in southeast Europe, like Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary, who are sympathetic to our cause. We have shared resources and have been at the ready to send aid in their conquest of Yugoslavia and Greece. Once we finish off France, they will surely join us and Italy in Operation Barbarrosa. An all our assault against the Soviets cut off from significant Western Allied aid should allow us to destroy them with ease.

Germany 5 1942

Today was, without a doubt, a smashing success. Our combined Italian and German forces overtook France to the point Britain had completely given up on them. Additionally, though it took some time, the feet of Germans landed in North Africa and have crushed French North Africa and Egypt’s French and British regiments. A short march from now, the British’s precious resources shall be ours to use and we shall be on Russia’s doorstep from two fronts.

The Allies seem to have given up on Europe for now, focusing their attention instead of Japan’s forces in the Pacific. While I would like to help, I have Russia to conquer, along with Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, and Italy. Particularly in Italy’s case, as I have been pumping them with as many resources as we can. Our victories and resources are likely to keep Italy on our side as the war continues.

Britain will be forced to deal with our guards on the borders around the Baltic Sea while we focus our attention on defeating the Soviets. There will be many casualties on both sides, but I shall see the Axis as victorious. Soviet soil will be painted in communist blood.

Germany 5 1943

Another smashing success. We continue our Italian-German march across Africa, taking Palestine. Soon the British’s resources will be ours and Russia will face troops coming from two directions. Additionally, we attack Ukraine with Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary and conquered it per Romania’s objectives. Russia is now in the war, but isolated from all its Allies with the Allies paying us no mind in Europe. If they do not act against us, the Rome-Berlin Sphere will be the victories come 1945.

Germany 5 1944

So, curiously enough, the Allies didn’t act against us. At all. In anyway. It’s almost infuriating how smooth today went. Germany and Italy swept through Africa and claimed all of their territory. The Western Axis assault against the Soviet Union was smashing success, taking Belarus and Northern Russia. Even Japan, who faced literally no opposition from the Allies, sent some troops up to Eastern Soviet Union to cripple their stronger forces there. 1945 will see us making one last attempt to finish our objectives, though I’m unsure if we’ll finish them all.

Regardless of what happens tomorrow, I believe that today put the final nail in the coffin of the Allied war effort in this seven-year-war. Their total lack of mobilization of any troops to prepare for a big comeback will force them to suffer in 1945. There will simply not be enough time to defeat us. They may retake some of our territories, but Axis victory in the west is all but assured.

Germany 5 1945

Today saw the first defeats of the German army in the entire war. Russia was relentless in taking back their territory. They held us off from taking Caucasus and Southern USSR with their Siberian troops and took back Northern USSR. An unfortunate loss, but at this point, the numbers we had sent into the east had dwindled significantly and, with well-trained and well-equipped troops coming from the Asian half of Russia, it was inevitable. We simply couldn’t hold them off forever.

The United States and Britain did try to make a final push into Europe, as I had expected. However, their total lack of activity in 1944 cost them. They could’ve crippled our numbers heavily and made a serious attempt to conquer to center of the Third Reich. However, they only got to F3 simply because I was not told how many troops the Allies had sent, so I did not send enough troops to fight them back accordingly. At the end of the year, the war was called: sweet, beautiful Axis victory. Our European empire is still massive and under our control and Japan’s empire in Asia was unchallenged and now more wholly united with the (admittedly ridiculous) final alliance between the decimated Chinese and Japanese. We held out against the mighty United States, USSR, and Britain and won. Boy it tastes sweet.

However, I strongly believe that, if the war hadn’t been forced to end this year, the United States, Britain, and the USSR would’ve eventually corned and defeated us in both theaters. Our troop numbers had dwindled while the US and UK idled and the USSR followed our nonaggression pact. They still had thousands upon thousands of troops at their disposal. Within the span a few years, our empire would be crushed unless we gained more troops to defend it.

All in all, I am pretty satisfied with how our campaign went. Not all objectives were achieved, but we now hold a massive empire for German lebensraum. The Reich is supreme.

WW2 Simulation Journal: France 5

WW2 Simulation
France 1939:

On our first day the allies were working great together. Great Britain had transferred us 6 rubber resources, and the United States transferred 6 oil resources to us. We are allies with Great Britain so we helped them attack Sweden, so the Allies would be able to gain control of the Baltic Sea. We are also allies with Belgium so we sent in 1,000 troops to defend them from German attack. Unfortunately China is in Asia because we are unable to help defend them from Japanese attacks. Poland was also taken over right away. With no allies able to get to them and help them defeat Axis attacks, Poland was an easy battle for the Axis powers.

France 1940:

Belgium was attacked twice today. The first time were able to defeat the axis, but unfortunately the second time was a victory for them.  With Germans in Belgium we had to move 867 troops to F1, and 100 troops from F2 to F3. Our strategies at this time is to try to destroy as many of the Axis navies as we can. Without their navies they won’t be able to transfer their troops around. We also are trying to bring British soldiers over since their are like 4,000 of them.

France 1941:

U.S, has joined the Allies! Since we know that Japan is going to attack the U.S. the French and British navies are going to the west to help defend. F2 was taken over by Italian forces. It was an unfair match with a lot of Italian troops and high ranking. Our colony in Africa was also attacked by Japan, but were able to defeat their forces.

France 1942:

France has been completely taken over by the Axis powers. We only have our navy left. We plan to help bring U.S. troops over to England to help win back France. Russia has now joined the Allies which is one positive thing. They now will be able to help us fight the Axis in a two front war.

France 1943:

Russia has been attacked by the Axis, so they now can officially start helping the allies. With Russia’s huge numbers and increasing ranking we should be able to defeat Axis powers in more battles than we have had before. With our navy on the east of U.S. we will be able to bring troops to Europe faster.

France 1944:

Our plan at this time is to have all of our allied navies on the eastern side of the U.S. to bring the troops to Europe as soon as possible. We will have to bring all of the troops to Great Britain since France is still under Axis power. We also plan to attack F3 to retain our original territory. We did have an idea of using our navies int he West Mediterranean Sea to possibly attack Greece. Greece wouldn’t be able to get help from Albania, Bulgaria, or Yugoslavia because there aren’t any troops stationed there. We weren’t able to but this idea to action because of Italy’s large navy nearby.

France 1945:

Russia was attacked multiple times today from the Axis powers on the east and the west. As the Axis powers were busy trying to attack Russia, we brought in British and American troops to fight F3. It was a victory for us because the Axis powers had their troops very spread out, and they were all trying to attack Russia.

Great Britain 5 1938
Today we ally with Norway, a secretive alliance. We allied with them hoping to get access through North Sea and Baltic Sea.  We are trying to come up with many plans with our other allies. They are France, Poland, Belgium to keep them safe.         We are also trying to get to the USSR to ally with us. We are in need to get them to cut off their resources with Germany. It will only weaken Germany, they will focus on those and forget about what will be happening around them.
There has also been talk about France attacking Germany right away tomorrow. This will catch them off guard and will be tied down on that. We have also talked about keeping Burma safe no matter what. They supply us with our resources and if they were taken over it would be the end.

Great Britain 1939
Great Britain decided to take over sweden, because it needs to stay neutral we figured if she was attacked she would have no choice. We gave her back her resources right away, and it became an ally. With her becoming allies she will help us get access into the Baltic so we can control that and control the spread Germany has decided to take on all countries. We also whipped out The Germans navy right under Sweden in the Baltic. Therefore they will not control the Baltic. We also wanted access to Denmark but Germany took control and would be to hard to defeat.

Great Britain 1940
Yugoslavia made an alliance with us today. We now have them and also Belgium. Russia made a secret alliance with us but it is a big risk if Germany was to find out about it.
We have no strategy on what were going to do exactly until someone is attacked and wee have to help.

Great Britain 1941
After the United States was attacked by Japan and were defeated, they could finally join the allied powers. This will help win the war because they have a strong army and can defeat anyone. Yugoslavia also gets attacked by Romania and Hungary  and is also defeated.
Our plans are to eventually attack Japan with all we have and that will happen once Soviet union gets attacked. We will need everyones help to defeat them then we can control most of Asia.

Great Britain 1942
This day was not what I expected. I thought there were going to be many more wars and arguments. For us at least it was calm. We tried to help France the best we could but they were taken out by Germany. At this time we have no strategy until we maybe get the soviet to hep defeat japan and many others to get France back and the control the Nazis.

Great Britain 1943
Today Great Britain helped the u.s attack and defat the Japanese navy. They no longer have a navy. Now wee plan on moving towards the U.S so we can attack France eventually and get them back to the allied sides. When we get everyone on our side that we need on our side we will take over the axis powers and defeat the nazis. The soviet union was also attacked which means they are now allies.

Great Britain 1944

Today U. S and Great Britain moved our navy over on the other side of the U.S and is going to eventually try to get France back by attacking from all sides.  We will then attack and move towards Germany.  Germany is rapidly taking over the soviet union. Italy attacked Iraq and was successful, I tried to move in 50 because either way they would get destroyed. Germany is taking everything. With the help of the Soviet Union they will get it back for us.

Great Britain 1945
Today is the last day, and i’m afraid we will not win. The axis powers took over early and we weren’t to aggressive therefore we couldn’t win. We need to move our troops over but we have no navy to do much. We are trying to keep fighting in France to lower their troops but they have to many. We tried our best to get our objectives and we succeeded in keeping most of our territory. We remained loyal to France. We tried to defend Belgium, when they were attacked we sent in troops and tried to fight. Germany and the rest of the axis powers are spreading more and more. Japan just took over part of Soviet and Germany attacked the Caucasus but Soviet was successful there.

WW2 Simulation Journal: Soviet Union 5

WW2 Simulation
1938 Soviet Union

Today I am thinking about what I’m going to do! I know I have to follow the alliance between Germany and I. I know that they won’t be honoring our alliance, and will try and attack me. The leader of Germany I don’t trust because he is pretty sneaky. I’m going to stay friends with the allies, this way I’ll have back up when Germany attacks me. My first move tomorrow is take over P1 and get a lot of their natural resources that I am in desperate need of.

1939

Today I took over P2. I had to do this because it was one of my objectives. I got a lot of natural resources from taking over Poland. I realize that I do need a lot of natural resources to keep my country going. My strategy is to stay friends with as many people as possible so that I can get my natural resources. Tomorrow I plan on taking Finland to try and accomplish my objective of getting as many Eastern European countries as I possibly can.

1940

Today I took over Finland because Finland (Austin) wasn’t there to defend it. I’m basically a sitting duck until Germany attacks me. I want to help and be apart of the allies! But I can’t until Germany attacks me. I also need natural resources badly from the axis countries as well. I’m trying to gain as many resources as I can before I formally enter into the war because I don’t want to loose a point on my army’s strength. I have most of the eastern countries taken over.

1941

Today I moved 500 troops towards my western boarders. I know that Germany and Rumania are going to attack me here soon. I need to keep my guard up because you never know what they are doing. I’m just glad that my military rating goes up the farther the get into the Soviet Union. I can’t side with the allies until the axis attacks me so I am a sitting duck until that happens. I have been working with people to get my natural resources. Once I get attacked by the axis I plan on waiting unit they get into the central U.S.S.R. to move my eastern siberian troops to help. I want to preserve them as much as I can.

1942

Today I got attacked by Germany and a bunch of other little countries. I followed one of my objectives which was to ally with the Allies if attacked by Germany. I lost Ukraine to them but the war is not over. They don’t know each time they move in the stronger my army gets. There army is slowly depleting in numbers.

1943

Today they took P2 from me, and are moving in. I’m worried about what is to come. Japan is sort of acting suspicious too, like they might attack me from that side. I feel a little cornered between Germany and Japan. I’m not going to get any troops from the Allies to help me because there just isn’t very many ships available to help me.

1944

Today was an interesting today. The plan is to try and get America’s navy all the way back to the Europe side so they can help attack where France used to be. This is going to take a lot of turns to do. Our problem is that we have troops, but no way  to get them! America has at least 9,000 troops and Great Britain has 4,000 troops. If we just had a little more time we would be victorious because we just have more troops all together.

1945

Today I tried to take Northern U.S.S.R. back. I sent 1000 troops in but that still wasn’t enough I guess. Japan is after me on the east side, and it’s not looking good. Right now I’m trying to retain my original territory. I’m loosing troops rapidly because I’m in a two front war. I ended up loosing the war with the axis. Japan ended up taking one of the eastern sections of my country, but that’s all they got. I wish I could’ve been in the war just a little bit earlier to be able to get troops and make plans with the allies earlier. Germany took over Northern from me, but I got it back at the end of the day.

WW2 Simulation Journal: France 5

WW2 Simulation
France 1938
Today we were planing how to get our other natural resources.  We are tenitivly planing to get the resources we need from USA and GB. Great Britain wants me to help take Denmark and to help them defend there territory in the Middle east in exchange for some of the natural resources we needed. We don’t want to attack right away. We want to have the USA cut off Japan. The leader of Japan said out loud he wasn’t going to attack Pear Harbor. I really don’t think the leader has the balls to hit the USA off the bat. I really want Germany to be country happy and move all of there troops away and maybe I can sneak in and take a Germany area.

France 1939:
Today went a lot better than I expected it would’ve gone. I figured I would’ve been taken over by now so I’m pretty happy.  We were planning on getting denmark but we figured out that G1 would supply denmark with more people than we could send.  I am worried right now because I have a lot of troops in Belgium and G1 could take it over at anytime. If I pull out than I would just have to fight a bigger group of German people later.

France 1940:
We saved Belgium for a while but then lost them when Germany sent in a second wave. I never should’ve sent people in to protect them for the second time. Great Britain was on my but to save them, but I lost. Now that I lost I have 1,000 less troops to defend my capitol. If she wanted to save Belgium so bad she should’ve done it herself. What I am not liking very much is Great Britain is sitting on her island with all of her troops when she has nothing to be afraid of. She needs to send her troops to me so we can mount a offensive against Germany.

France 1941:
God bless the USA. The USA is in and we are going to send all of our navy to the US to help them take out Japan. Germany may attack me but I don’t think they have the balls to hit me. The leader of the USA is not the smartest person in the world. He defiantly was dropped when he was a baby. He had most of his navy destroyed so we are using our navy to help them. The only problem with that is there is now now way to get people off of Great Britain into France. Great Britain needs to pull there head out of where it shouldn’t be and fight for themselves.

France 1942:
France was taken over today! I feel like I did as good of a job as I could.  I think I could’ve lasted longer if Germany would’ve been on a two sided war. With Germany only having to worry about me they just kicked my but with most of there troops. If they were on a 2 front war then maybe they would’ve fought me with less troops and i could hold out long enough for the USA to bring me some of there troops. The one conforming thing is I knew this was going to happen. It happened in the real war so I assumed eventually I would’ve been taken over.

France 1943:
If I was in I would go ferry some US troops into France but I was taken over by Germany. We have made a plan to go beat Japan and let what ever happens happen in Europe.  We took out all of Japan navy now we are going to leave them because they can’t really do anything now. Our plan now is to go get a foothold on europe and go beat the Germans. Russia joined the war today! It’s to bad they didn’t do that earlier to take some of the pressure off of France.

France 1944:
The plan for today is to move all of the Navy to europe and try to take back F3. I really want to attack french north africa and Libya because made me mad when I only had 5 people left and they demolished me really bad. The only problem is Mr. President Logan Krause says that is against the plan. I really don’t care what he has to say we are freeing the world of tyranny and he has a bunch of troops anyway! Our plan is to start the offensive tomorrow on France with any luck we may have france free of tyranny by the end of the day tomorrow, and win the war!

France 1945:
We are going to just send wave after wave of boats to attack F3 in a hope to just gain some European land back. We should’ve started to do this yesterday. We know there is no way we can win we are going to send everyone. We are going to use all of the boats to attack and hopefully gain some land. If this was longer then we really do think that we could win. I just think we need more time.  If this is how the actual war we probably wouldn’t be the US anymore. The whole world would’ve been under control of a guy with a bad mustache. Russia was slowly taken over for the most part until they got to attack then they gained most of there ground back. We did end up getting F3 back with a combined attack from the US and GB but we ran out of time to take back the rest of France.

Great Britain 1 1938
I was the President of Great Britain, and my Prime Minister was _________.
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

World War 2 Simulation

Period 5 Austin Richards Finland 5 1938
Well, by next year Europe will be in another war, another war great war by the looks of it. Finland wants nothing to do with it, we going to stay out of it for as long as we can. I feel confident in my army, we may be small but we are strong. I am talking to Germany about gaining supplies and hopefully getting them to send soldiers to help defend us if worse comes to worse. I am very worried about the USSR and I know Germany would like to be able to attack the USSR from where Finland is, if they decide to go to war with the USSR. I have made a secret alliance with Germany, so if thing get bad Germany will hopefully be able to help me.

Period 5 Austin Richards China 5 1938
We are not in a good position, Japan’s armies have already taken large portions of our territory. They are definitely the better trained army, I cannot afford to attack right away I will be crushed. I am going to build up an alliance with Great Britain and hopefully they will send some of their colonial troops to help defend me and build up a defense. I am holding out until there forces ware down or are spread too thin, then GBC and I will strike. I am also talking to my allies the US to help me with supplies. I hope they join the war, I could use some assistance from their armies, and they are my allies, but they are stuck on being isolated.

Finland 5 1939
The USSR are building up troops by my border, I know they are planning on invading soon. What can I do? We will probably lose this battle without outside help. The Allies will not help me and Germany did not have time to send troops to assist me before their ships were destroyed, so I have nothing else I can do. I can’t gain anymore troops. I will have to wait and pray that the resources I gained from Germany will make my army better enough to take on the force of the USSR. Finland has done nothing to provoke an attack, I have talked with the leader of the USSR and tried to tell them I want nothing to do with the war, but it is clear they do not want to talk with me and have made up their mind on invading. I could attack first, but I get the feeling the allies to my West also want to attack me, so I am in a bad position either way.

China 5 1939
We have done very well in defending the Japanese attacks. We have not lost anymore land, and Great Britain’s colonial troops are willing to help me, we held off an attack. We suffered some loses, but a win is a win. I have talked with the Japanese leader and he told me he only wants to take over part of my land to make a passage to the Dutch East Indies, he will not attack anymore after that. I do not know if that is true, but for now I am at least acting like I am trusting him. That doesn’t mean I am giving up that land without a fight.

Finland 5 1940
I was ill today so command of my forces went to someone else. Sadly I see we lost Finland to the USSR. They attack for no reason, I tried to stay peaceful never did I provoke an attack, sadly I was not there to stop the attack, I was just too ill. I had a plan that I would attack with a small force, stopping them from attacking me, but I was gone so I could not do that. It looks we didn’t go without a fight though!  They attacked with 1500 troops against out 250, they were left with 250 in the end. Not too bad. But it doesn’t change the fact that we lost and the USSR now control out land.

China 5 1940
I was ill today so command of my forces went to someone else. It looks like they did not do too bad of a job defending. We lost only SC China, I expected larger losses. I assume Japan was nice and did not want to take advantage of the fact that I was gone.  I am trying to hold them back long enough that GB will maybe send more troops or the US enters the war. I could use their help and I still need more resources. I have secured oil, but hopefully I will be able to get more resources from them. Or maybe Great Britain or USSR will be able to send some supplies too? I hope.

Finland 5 1941
Still out of command, not really much to talk about.

China 5 1941
We are still holding strong. We have yet to lose any territory, I think China is getting ready for an attack on the U.S., which is good, then some of the attention will be turned away from me hopefully, and attention can go to the U.S. Hopefully USSR enters the war soon too, they can easily charge through the Japanese forces hopefully.

Finland 5 1942
Nope, USSR still controls Finland, and Germany has no way of getting up here either. So still out of the war.

China 5 1942
Well we have lost NC China, but we put up a fight. Japan also attack the U.S. navy, but also lost a large part of their army. I think Japan is trying to charge through us and take over as much as they can before the U.S. lands on Japan and takes, leaving them to worry about that. If USSR joins they are even more done. You can see they are running thiner and thiner on forces, and soon they will fall. I fear that we will fall before they do though. I had also made a secret alliance with Japan, if I attack USSR and get them to join the Axis, Japan will not attack me. I have also been allowed to join the Axis after I do this.

Finland 5 1943
Still taken over by the USSR. Germany is saying they are planning to move up and liberate Finland though!

China 5 1943
Well

WW2 Simulation Journal: Great Britain 5

World War 2 Simulation
Great Britain 5 1938

Alliances:
Today an alliance with Norway was made in the
hopes that they will give us access to the Baltic
Sea. A possible alliance with Russia could be
made tomorrow, and a possible alliance with
China.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
Tomorrow, 1939, France has agreed to attack Germany
so that they are tied up on their land while I take over
Denmark by way of sea so the allies can control the
Baltic Sea. I have asked the United States to cut off
supplies to Japan, and I have asked Russia to cut off
supplies to Germany. Ensuring Allied Victory. I
NEED the United States to come into the war.

Fears:
I fear that my alliance with Norway will entangle me
and if they are attacked I will have to spilt my forces
to protect them. I am scared that the U.S. won’t cut
supplies off to Japan, and that Russia will not be true
to our alleged alliance. I am also leery of China because
Finland is also involved with Germany and I feel
that China could fall to the Axis powers easily.

Great Britain 5 1939

Alliances:
And alliance with Yugoslavia was made today, but
I fear it will further entangle me in the war. They
have to keep it very secret and Germany is threatening
to attack them if they ally with me. I’m worried that
Yugoslavia will take advantage of my resources.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
We took over Sweden today in hopes of controlling
the Baltic. Then we destroyed Germany’s army also
in the Baltic Sea. (IT WAS EPIC) Tomorrow planning
on taking over Finland with Russia and getting Poland

back once we control the Baltic.

Fears:
I fear that my colonies will be taken over and that
I will lose all my resources. I fear that if the U.S.
doesn’t come into the war I will fall because
France is basically useless because they are so
weak, and they are very afraid.

Great Britain 5 1940

Alliances:
Yugoslavia joined the Allied powers today, along
with Belgium. Russia also made a secret alliance
with us today.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
There is no immediate plan of attack, we are waiting
for the Axis powers to do something first. We
absolutely need to protect Burma or all our resources
will be gone. And we need to get Belgium back
from the Axis powers.

Fears:
I very much fear that the Axis powers will take
over Yugoslavia and I will be forced to defend
and I will surely meat death. I fear that France
will fall and I will be helpless unless U.S.
joins that war. I fear that now that Japan has
basically taken over China they will take over
Burma, where all my resources come from.

Great Britain 5 1941

Alliances:
The United States finally got to join the Allies
today. This is awesome because I needed them
to survive. Except they ran away like a little
girl. Yugoslavia got taken over today and
were pissed because we didn’t help
them. However we couldn’t get to them.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
Tomorrow we plan to attack Japan’s navy,
and then get the U.S. troops on Japan soil
and destroy everything there. Then all we
have to worry about is Germany.

Fears:
France is going to be taken over tomorrow.
And I fear if Russia doesn’t come into the
war we will lose on the European map.
I fear Japan’s navy is too powerful to be
taken over, and I will not have a navy anymore.

Great Britain 5 1942

Alliances:
No additional alliance were made today.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
No immediate plan of attack. We are
in deep trouble. Just going to try to stay
alive

Fears:
I fear my navy will be wiped out and I will
have not means of getting anywhere across
the map. Yeah…we’re pretty much screwed.
This is goodbye world. Nice knowing ya.

Great Britain 5 1943

Alliances:
The Soviet Union joined the Allies today,
after they got attacked.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
We plan on moving troops from the U.S.
onto European soil, because they are useless
just sitting there and hopefully take back
over France/Poland. And we need to take
out Italy’s navy.

Fears:
I fear that we won’t be able to move troops
from U.S. quickly enough to help save Russia.
That means that surely the Allies will lose to the
Axis Powers.

Great Britain 5 1944

Alliances:
No new alliances were made today. No one joined
the Allied Powers.

Immediate Plan of Attack:
We need to protect Burma at all costs because
the Axis Powers have basically taken over everything
around Burma.

Fears:
I fear that we won’t win the war because
we can’t get the U.S. soldiers over fast enough
to save us. I also fear Burma will fall to the
Axis Powers. If that happens we will have
surely lost the war.

Great Britain 5 1945

Overall:
I feel we needed to be more aggressive in order
to win the war. It would have been much
better if the U.S.S.R and the United States
would have joined the war sooner. To be
completely honest we totally sucked. If
I had to do it all over again I would do the
exact opposite of everything I did this time.
It’s really depressing to be the Allied Powers
and to have lost. I feel really disappointed in
myself.

WW2 Simulation Journal: Yugoslavia and Belgium 5

WW2 Simulation
Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1938

This year as the leader of Yugoslavia, I’ve had to do a lot of strategizing and planning. Yugoslavia doesn’t have a very big or strong military, therefore I have to depend on my allies. I have close ties with Germany, but in 2 years I will break off my relations with them. When I break off relations with them, I need help from France and Great Britain. I will make a secret alliance with France and Great Britain so they will have my back when I break off from Germany. I have to make sure that Germany won’t invade me. Hopefully France and Great Britain will help me because without them, I won’t be successful. I need them for security and to get my natural resources. I won’t be able to do much for the next 2 years until I do break off relations with Germany, and then I will join the allies.

This year has been a year of planning. I can’t do much without the help of my allies, Great Britain and France. I really depend on them because my country is super small and can’t do anything by itself. Many countries are going to try to take over mine because it’s so small. With the help of my allies, hopefully I can retain my original territory. I will stay neutral until I’m attacked. When I’m attacked I will become a part of the allies.  I have to depend on my allies so that I won’t get taken over easily. I’m scared that Germany’s huge military is going to make my country one of their first attacks because they are right across the border. I depend on my alliances for natural resources, because I can’t take over countries by myself. They will have to transfer some of their natural resources to me.

Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1939

This year my country made a secret alliance with France and Great Britain. I hope that Germany does not ask me to help them militarily because I won’t help them. If they know I’m not going to help them, they will probably go against me sooner than I want them to. I can’t completely break of relations with them until next year. After that I know I’m going to get attacked by them, but I’m going to do everything I can for them not to take over my country. Germany actually assured me that if I turned against them, they will conquer me. With the help of France and Great Britain this shouldn’t be an issue. If my country does get taken over, then hopefully my allies will help me out to get it back. Right now I’m just sitting back waiting to help someone if they need my help (other than Germany). Things aren’t very exciting right now, but I have a feeling they will be sometime soon.

This year nothing really happened. My country is going to stay neutral until I get attacked, then I will join the allies. Once I get attacked (which I’m not for sure when that is going to happen) France and Great Britain will hopefully help me stop that from happening.  Once I officially join the allies, I’m planning on them transferring some of their resources to me because I really don’t need that much. I’m going to make as much defensive alliances I can within the next couple of years, so I can be protected.

Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1940

This year was the year I had to cut off relations with Germany, and they didn’t seem too surprised. They never did ask me to help them militarily, but I wouldn’t have anyway. I officially became a part of the allies now that I broke off relations with Germany. They didn’t attack me this year, but there’s no doubt in my mind that they will next year. I know they’re planning something. I’m not sure if my allies will really be able to help me if I do get attacked. I warned them that they are going to have to get ready but they didn’t seem very confident that they would be much help. If they can’t help me, I don’t really know what I’m going to do.

This year Germany attacked me with 1,000 troops, but with the help of my allies (Great Britain and France), Germany was unsuccessful in taking over my country. I was very happy about that.. until Germany attacked Belgium again, and my allies tried to help but it didn’t work. I’m still thankful for my allies because they did help me out, it just didn’t work the second time. We tried to do everything we could, but it wasn’t enough.  Now that I was attacked, I’m no longer neutral. I officially joined the allies. I made two secret alliances with Sweden and the Netherlands. I have to make a lot of defensive alliances. Maybe eventually we can fight back for my country but my allies have bigger things to worry about, so I doubt they will want to. I will try to convince them, but I’m not sure if it’s going to work.

Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1941

This year Yugoslavia was attacked by Romania and Hungary. They were successful because no one helped me. I’m too isolated and no one was really willing to even try to help me. Since they took me over, they took the small amount of iron that I had. This isn’t that big of a surprise, I knew Germany would try and do something, and they did. I doubt that I will get my country back. I’ll at least try to convince my allies to fight for it, but I’m almost positive they won’t do anything. I guess I will just wait see what the future brings, and go from there. Right now there isn’t much I can do, but maybe eventually something will work out.

This year nothing happened, I’m still taken over by the Axis Powers. My plan is to just sit back and wait for my allies to finish what they need to get done. Once they are done with finishing their biggest duties, I’m going to convince to help me get Belgium back. I really want to get my country back, and then I’ll work on getting natural resources. I see that they aren’t really being helpful with getting back Yugoslavia (who has the same alliances that I do) who got taken over this year, so I’m just going to wait a little bit. If I don’t convince them to get Belgium back then I guess there really isn’t anything else that I can do.

Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1942

This year has been a very bad year. France got taken over by Germany, and won’t be able to get it back. France pretty much lost all of their troops because they used them to try defend themselves. They are my allies and now they are taken over, so my country is pretty much screwed. I don’t know what’s going to happen with Great Britain, but the way things are going, I’m sure it won’t be very good. With my allies being taken over, there’s no way I can get my country back.

This year I am in the same boat as Yugoslavia. My country got taken over, and my allies are getting taken over. France got taken over by Germany, and now I’m sure they’ll start taking over Great Britain. This has been an awful year, and things are just going to keep getting worse. I don’t know what I’m going to because my allies aren’t going to be able to help me because they have to focus on defending their own countries first.

Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1943

This year my allies focused on trying to destroy Japan’s navy. We want to do this because we want to stop Japan from taking everything over. They were successful in wiping out all of Japan’s navy. All the decisions have been pretty much on France and Great Britain. They are the only two who can actually do anything right now because other allies are wiped out. As allies, we just need to work together and over power the axis powers. From this point on, I feel like we will gradually work our way towards taking over more countries. This year was also the year that the USSR finally joined the allies. I doubt they will help me get my country back, but there’s not really I can really do about it.

This year was very similar to the year that Yugoslavia had. The allies successfully wiped out the Japanese navy, so they can no longer keep taking everything over. The USSR also joined with allies. Since Belgium is so small, it’s not very important to get back right now. My allies have other focuses, and Belgium is not one of them. Getting back my country isn’t important to them, like it is to me. I’m screwed on getting my country back, and I can’t really do anything, unless a miracle happens.

Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1944

This year my allies were moving towards success. They moved their troops closer to the eastern part of the United States, and all of the troops are going to go into Europe and try to dominate. In order for the Axis powers not to defend themselves easily, they are going to make smaller attacks, so they lose their troops, and then hit the bigger areas. Like I mentioned last year, I doubt they will help me get my country back, so I have pretty much given up. There is nothing I can do anymore, we won’t have enough time.

This year was again a year like Yugoslavia, since we have the same allies. We’re running out of time, and the Axis powers keep taking over land. As allies, we need to start making our move. We started making our move this year by moving all of our troops towards Europe. My country is long gone and forgotten about because my allies have better things to focus on.

Yugoslavia and Belgium, Period 5, 1945

This year was really unsuccessful, the allied powers lost the war. It’s finally over, but it was long and boring for me, since I got taken over right away. My allies were really lazy, until the last day. They finally started making their move the last day. The USSR gained back a lot of it’s land that it lost, but that’s all they did. All my alliances were pretty much taken over by the axis powers. They weren’t very successful in defending themselves, so I don’t know why I thought they would be able to help me. They were weak, and lazy, and had an awful war. That really affected me because I can’t do anything without them.

This year was awful because the allied powers lost the war. They weren’t successful at all in defending themselves, so obviously they couldn’t help me out. All of our land was taken away by the axis powers, and there’s no way I was going to get Belgium back. My alliances were really weak and none of the communicated our worked together. I’m glad the war is over!
