Default Re: The Romanian Empire AAR

1937: The Year of Great Expansion

War with Yugoslavia was always on the mind of the Romanians. The winter was harsh, the grounds Frozen, but in March the Romanian Army was ready. The plan was simple - cut of Yugoslavian Armies in three sectors and storm the Capital. Little did we know how successful this would be against the numerically superior Yugoslavians. The most time consuming of things during this war was movement to the shores of the Adriatic Sea.

Here we can see Center and South. The Mountains of the former Bulgarian Provinces prevent the Yugoslavians from entering deeply into Romanian Territory, and not before their own supply lines are cut off.


Next we see Group North. Cavalry and 1 Tank Division moved swiftly and trapped 4 Divisions against the border with Italy, where the slower moving 3 Inf Army destroyed the Yugoslavians.


Here we see the one downside of the war, the liberation of Serbia.


Despite this uncharacteristic move on behalf of the Romanian Government,the fight had been knocked out of the Yugoslavians. Their peace offer was rejected and after one final push, Yugoslavia was annexed.


Shortly afterwards, it was determined that Greece had aided Yugoslavia during the war, so speedy Cavalry divisions were moved down to attack Greece. [Note the passage of time in these next to shots - beginning of war, and end of war]



It was then decided to bring Serbia back into the fold:


Along with Albania - both bloodless wars.


As 1937 comes to a close, dissent is extremely high (35%) and the few rebellions that sprung up were quickly put down by fast moving Romanian Cavalry. Garrison Units with MP attachments have been deployed to more problematic provinces, and the 5 Tech Teams are working around the clock to keep Romania up to speed with the rest of the world. Research so far is centered around Land Units/Doctrines, Industrial Improvements, and progress into the field of the Air Force.
The New Romanian Empire:


Where next do the hungary (no pun intended) eyes of the Romanians turn to next? Do they lower their national dissent, upgrading their armies, and then take on the Muslim Hordes to the South East, in Turkey? Or do they enter a period of Peace, watching events in the rest of the World, choosing new allies?
