@crockett36 said in League General Discussion Thread:

42 should be league, imo.

I will admit I’m not sure what version you are referencing when you say 42. Is that AA 50 1942 scenario?

@FranceNeedsMorePower Here is my introduction and political situations so far. The game is a extra 6 rounds. For example instead of round 7 Operation Torch happens round 13.

Note: 90% was writing by myself. AI was only used to correct and enhance my spelling and word choices.

Introduction
December 31, 1939 — Tensions are at a breaking point.
Poland has fallen after a desperate struggle to resist the German onslaught. Across Europe, the Nazi war machine has unleashed a wave of blitzkrieg, toppling nations with speed and violence. One by one, neutral countries fall or capitulate, and the Axis grip on the continent tightens.
Only two major powers still resist the rising tide of fascism: the British Empire and France. Doom feels inevitable.
Germany cannot yet be stopped in Europe, but a new front is opening — one that could change the course of the war. North Africa, a vast and brutal theater, now becomes a critical battleground. Italy eyes a reborn empire stretching across the Mediterranean, while the Allies scramble to hold vital ports, protect supply lines, and rally their scattered forces.
The fate of Africa — and perhaps the world — now rests in your hands. Will you lead the Axis, beginning with Italy, and eventually commanding Vichy France and Germany? Or will you command the Allies, starting with Britain, then drawing strength from the Commonwealth, the Free French, and eventually the United States?
The desert war begins.

Political situation:

🇬🇧 United Kingdom
The British Empire stands on the brink.
France is deflating, and the German war machine advances unchecked across Europe. With the fall of Poland and much of the continent already under Axis control, Britain is preparing to stand alone — for now.
Though the situation in Europe looks grim, the British Empire maintains strength through its colonies, fleets, and distant allies. In North Africa, however, the situation is dire. Italy threatens to seize control of the Mediterranean and expand its dream of a new Roman Empire.
Britain must rally its global forces — from India, Australia, and beyond — and bring them to bear in the desert sands of Africa.
Can you hold the line and defend North Africa from Axis conquest?

You are at war with no one until round 3 unless attacked. You cannot move into any French territory until Operation Torch.

🇮🇹 Italy
A new empire is within reach.
With Germany sweeping through Europe, Italy turns south. Mussolini dreams of resurrecting the Roman Empire by conquering North Africa and dominating the Mediterranean.
But Italy’s military is ill-prepared. Equipment is outdated, leadership is disorganized, and the desert offers no mercy. Every advance will be hard-fought, and supply lines must stretch across harsh, unforgiving terrain.
Can you overcome the odds, seize control of Africa, and turn Italy into a true global power?

You are at war with no one until round 3 which means you must stay in your own territories. You can choose to declare war early if you wish.

🇫🇷 Vichy France
A fractured nation, bound by uneasy terms.
As Paris fell, many of your best troops were rushed from Africa to defend the homeland. They never returned. Your remaining forces are scattered, poorly equipped, and stretched thin across colonial outposts.
Much of your armor lies rusting or has been destroyed to keep it from Axis hands. Supplies are scarce. Troop morale is low. Yet, you now find yourself in command of a fragile slice of empire — a puppet of the Axis.
Can you maintain control of your sector in North Africa under these challenging conditions?
At war with no one. Acts the same.

🇫🇷 Free France
A divided France fights on.
Though the homeland has fallen, not all Frenchmen have accepted defeat. The Free French, loyal to the Allies, rally under General de Gaulle to continue the fight.
Your numbers are few — scattered remnants of the French military now stationed in the United Kingdom and French Equatorial Africa. But your morale is strong, and your cause is just. You fight not just for France, but for liberty itself.
Can you push back the Axis powers in North Africa and beyond?
At war with the Axis when France falls.

🇩🇪 Germany
Europe falls beneath your boots.
One by one, nations across the continent are crushed under the weight of the German war machine. Blitzkrieg has proven unstoppable. The Reich is rising.
But in Africa, your reach does not yet extend. Italy leads the Axis campaign there — for now. Should your ally falter, it will fall to Germany to intervene and stop the inevitable Allied counteroffensive.
Can you redirect your forces in time to secure North Africa, or will the Allies open a second front that threatens everything you’ve built?
At war with the U.K., Free French, and Commonwealth at round 3, America round 13

🌍 Commonwealth
Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and South Africa answer the call.
Your forces are far from home, drawn into a global conflict by duty to the Crown. Britain needs manpower, and the burden falls to you.
Though your homelands lie far from North Africa, your soldiers will fight and die in its deserts, ports, and skies — to protect British territory and push back the Axis threat.
Your courage is unquestioned. But are you prepared for the harsh war ahead?

At war with the Axis on round 3.

🇺🇸 United States
The war is not yet yours — but it may be soon.
Europe is at total war again. In North Africa, fighting escalates between the Axis and Allies, but the United States remains officially neutral. Still, the signs are clear: tensions are rising, and American involvement seems more likely with each passing month.
For now, you watch. You prepare. And when the time comes, you may be called to act — not just in defense of allies, but to preserve the balance of the world.

At war with the Axis round 9. But attacks round 13.

Currently studying troop placement and divisions in North Africa 1939. I will then move onto the med.
