We are at war, captain. I am looking for capable people to help me win it. I hope you can assist us by transporting war supplies. We will be using ships to deliver the cargo to the continent. |
2 |
I believe you know me. I am prime minister Churchill. I have been elected just a few days ago. But I am ready to take on the enemies and secure a victory for us. |
3 |
We will need all the troops we can get to win this war. But I will allow your sailors to keep working for you. I understand delivering supplies to the front is essential and we need people for that too. |
4 |
You will need to cover some initial costs yourself. It will be all compensated once we win this war. For now, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat. |
5 |
Our troops were sent to France to help them fight off the enemy. It’s not going well. Some additional munition and weapons need to be delivered to the front. Let’s hope they will make a difference. |
6 |
It seems the fall of France is imminent but I am resolved to fight on. Britain will be the unwavering rock that can’t be broken by any force. Not even by the Nazis. |
7 |
The food supplies for the troops are ready to be shipped to the front. There are still a lot of surviving soldiers who need to eat. We need to keep them strong so they can fight on. |
8 |
I have ordered new armed vehicles to be constructed. We need the material asap to be ready for the German invasion once France falls. I am under no illusion that it can be avoided now. |
9 |
We need to evacuate our and allied troops from Dunkirk. Send all your ships there and be ready for some action. The Germans will be there before us. It will get hot. |
10 |
Prepare boats that will take the troops to the ships. You can’t get the ships too close to the beach or you will risk getting hit by German missiles. We have to evacuate as many soldiers as possible. |
11 |
The evacuation was successful. However, we can’t celebrate yet. We have still a war to win. Many of the soldiers are in hospitals being taken care of. Let’s make sure they have enough bandages for them. |
12 |
France has officially fallen and Hitler is looking our way now. We need more ammo and arsenal right now. We might be able to buy some from the United States. Can you make the deal? |
13 |
Moreover, the Italians have entered the war as Hitler’s allies. They are trying to occupy Northern Africa for the Axis. We will have to send troops there too. If we strike fast, we could defeat them easily. |
14 |
We need some material to build bunkers. Now, that the Germans won France, they could strike at us any day. I have a feeling we will have to watch the sky above us. |
15 |
The Battle of Britain has begun but we are ready. The Germans are trying to destroy our war production but we won’t let them. Make sure our troops have enough food and ammo. |
16 |
We also need oil for our land vehicles and planes. The United States has promised us material help including supplies of oil. You just need to go and deliver them to our troops. |
17 |
Luftwaffe is bombarding London. Make sure to stay out of the city, we can’t risk your supply ships being sunk. We will need a new delivery of ammo asap so we can shoot down the German planes. |
18 |
The Germans have altered their strategy and are attacking at night. They hope to avoid our counterattack in the dark. But that won’t help them. We will set up large signal fires to confuse them. |
19 |
How are our troops faring in Africa? The Italians have asked for help from Hitler. We will need to strengthen our forces there if we want to stand a chance against them. |
20 |
I won’t be leaving London. I will command the counterattack from here while watching the German raids. We need to set up anti-aircraft barrages around the city to protect what we can. |
21 |
I have made a deal with president Roosevelt. The US will lend us fifty destroyers to defeat the Germans. We just need the crew to man them. |
22 |
War is an unpleasant business for all but it’s most hard on our troops. Let’s give them something nice to appreciate their sacrifice. Chocolate will give them energy and some endorphins too. |
23 |
We have intercepted a coded German message. Hitler is preparing to invade Russia later this year. We ought to warn Stalin. Take the message to Moskow in disguise as a captain of a fishing vessel. |
24 |
Stalin did not want to heed our warning? Well, I don’t like that mustached communist anyway. We will see how he deals with the Germans once they attack. We have to fight our own battles. |
25 |
I have a meeting arranged with president Roosevelt. We will discuss important plans for the future of our countries and the world. I need transport across the Atlantic. |
26 |
It was a productive meeting. The Atlantic Charter was signed and we have now a clear vision for a future full of peace and prosperity. Now, all we need to do is win this war. |
27 |
Japan has attacked the American base at Pearl Harbor. I did not expect another player to enter this war. But now the US must join the war too. Together we will defeat the enemies. |
28 |
I must meet Roosevelt again and discuss the new conditions we are facing. We must concentrate on defeating Hitler. He is the main figure behind this war. Once we stop him, the Axis will be done for. |
29 |
This year’s winter is pretty harsh. Our soldiers need some warm clothing and blankets. Take it to the front before we lose anyone to hypothermia. |
30 |
Roosevelt and I agreed that our first joint attack would be in French North Africa. We need to root out Hitler’s troops out of there. Load the ships with weapons and ammo. Our troops are already underway. |
31 |
I have had a minor heart attack yesterday. Don’t worry, it was nothing serious. I need to get to Canada to have a speech at the Parliament. You make sure our troops have food to eat. |
32 |
I need to get back to London. With the fronts in Europe, Africa, and Asia we are spread thin. I need to speak about our next move with the war cabinet. Can you take me back to Europe? |
33 |
We have lost France, Norway, and Greece to the Germans. Now the Japanese are winning in South Asia. We need to devise a winning strategy with the allies. We must organize a conference or two. |
34 |
Hitler’s general, Rommel, is winning in North Africa. Our troops there need some encouragement. Then I must visit Stalin in Moscow. It’s time we started cooperating for real. I could use a drink before I go. |
35 |
Stalin insists on opening a second front in Europe. Right now, the Germans are concentrating on attacking the Soviets. I will do my best, but we are losing soldiers by the day. |
36 |
Finally, the tides are turning. We have won the battles at El Alamain and Stalingrad. I don’t delude myself that we are near the end. But we just might be at the end of the beginning. |
37 |
I am meeting Roosevelt and Stalin in Teheran. I bet they will insist on opening the second front in Europe. You just make sure our troops are supplied with weapons and ammo as before. |
38 |
I have been feeling ill for the last few days. But the war won’t stop only because I feel unwell. Maybe some fresh food and a day of rest will do me good. |
39 |
After the victory in Northern Africa, we have agreed to concentrate our attack on Italy. Specifically on Sicily. I need you to deliver war supplies to the island including material for barricades. |
40 |
Hitler sent his troops to repel our attack on Italy. I had hoped it would be easier to invade Germany from the south. Roosevelt still prefers leading the final attack from France. |
Final |
You helped us win the war. So this reward is well deserved. |
