FLOWEYFAN ACTUALLY READ THIS TURN
- The American assault on Nova Scotia threatens to cave in the Allied line running from Truro to New Glasgow. In a few places, the Americans break through, but this doesn't happen widespread enough for the Americans to fully exploit it. And no, there isn't a glorious Murican attack which drives the filthy Europoor invaders off North America for good in one go, that isn't how warfare works, especially not a large-scale invasion. It won't be as simple as that to stop the invasion.
- Numerous times in your turns, you seem to say that you're redirecting ships from the Newfoundland blockade. Therefore, I think its perfectly reasonable that now the Royal Navy would break through, so, we do.
- A final Royal Navy assault smashes the diminished American blockade. One eye witness describes how "the sea burned" with spilt fuel in this major engagement. Afterwards, thousands of tonnes of British aid flood through to help the battle in Newfoundland. By this point, American forces have been driven to the western half of the island, and the battles reach an everincreasing rate of bloodshed.
- British military command issues orders which reclassify the citizens of Puerto Rico as fighters. the uprising is subsequently put down completely. The disorganised civilians, with only light weaponry, are no match for battle-seasoned soldiers.
- The American forces at Honduras surrender after being surrounded and given the choice of inprisonment or annihilation. The Allies now completely liberate the colony, and the Royal Navy moves into the Yucatan Strait to block off further American forces.
- The battle for the Bahamas turns in the American favour, seeing as the Americans now have their ships there and the British still have theirs at Newfoundland. This conflict sees perhaps the first incident of island hopping.
- Unrest in Ireland grows, as the newly formed Irish Parliament is declared illegal, with its members arrested. Michael Collins, one of the leaders of the Parliament, escapes through a skylight, and later in the year several other members escape prison.
