Turn 6 - British Empire

Reports from the Front
British Empire, Fall 2015

Sub-Saharan Africa. Our forces captured the last German colony in dark continent, South West Africa.

Trans-Jordan. Our army in Egypt invaded Trans-Jordan. Unfortunately, the battle did not fair well as we lost 2 divisions to 1 Ottoman one. Our remaining division dug in.

Mesopotamia. Our army in Persia, supported by an amphibious assault, invaded Mesopotamia. In all, 13 divisions and 2 fighter wings attacked, with a Battleship squadron in support. Our fighters gained air supremacy, destroying both Ottoman air wings, but the beach defenses were tough, knocking out 2 divisions before they could even come ashore. The land battle lacked intensity. We destroyed 6 Ottoman Infantry divisions and lost 3 Infantry divisions and 2 Artillery divisions (in addition to the 2 Infantry divisions lost in the landing). The territory remains heavily contested.

India. 3 Infantry divisions and 3 Artillery divisions mustered in India while the army already there advanced into Persia.

England. Our Southern shipyards produced a Battleship Squadron which joined our 2 Cruiser Flotillas in the Irish Sea.

London. Bolstered by our gains in Africa, our treasury is now filled with 36 million Swiss Francs.

Our losses to date:
...British Ground Forces: 28 Infantry Divisions, 11 Artillery Divisions
...British Naval Forces: 1 Battleship Squadron, 3 Cruiser Flotillas, 7 Transport Flotillas
...Allied Forces: 1 division of Infantry, 1 division of Artillery
