Prussia - HOI4 - Unrestricted Warfare (II)

02 Jan 1913: These three divisions attack in order to prevent enemy divisions "marching to the guns".
I'm transferring 2 air wings from Lower Saxony...
….and 1 from Posen to Moselland airfield so that they can join in the struggle in the west.
As you can see, all 17 divisions of 4th Army are in combat. The front is ablaze from the Dutch border in the north to the Swiss border in the south.
I decide to transfer 3 more air wings to the west, this time from East Prussia.
04 Jan 1913: Not quite Jutland but the British have lost another merchant. Not much naval action here in the north but it isn't our fault. Every available ship in the Kriegsmarine is on Search and Destroy or Convoy Raiding in the Baltic and Eastern Northern Sea.
Here is a detailed view of the air action over the Benelux. Since we are the only European power with an air force and Japan appears to be the only other power with one we can presume that these are JAF aircraft. I don't recognize the silhouette....
05 Jan 1913: In the graphics bottom-centre you can see that each of the 4 armies involved in the offensive have a dedicated air wing attached.
06 Jan 1913: I create a new air wing at Moselland.
11 Jan 1912: The two divisions from the Baltic are invited to join the battle while I'm being informed that the enemy has air superiority over Northern France. I guess I have sent too many to the Benelux.
13 Jan 1913: I switched a couple of air wings to Northern France and have transferred an air wing from Upper Bavaria to Moselland. That fixed it.
14 Jan 1913: Nothing new to report from Montenegro. The Turks on the mountains to the east have a grandstand view of the war.
The Infrastructure Construction is almost finished. We need more factories, civilian and military.
19 Jan 1913: The front is a little quieter now but all four armies are still on the offensive.
20 Jan 1913: I count 19 French divisions in Montenegro.
Lenin appears to think highly of us (+45) and Germany is the only nation allowing them military access.
After receiving claims for our colonies Italy is now investing in CFs. Look at the next one down: Prepare for War. They didn't research War in Europe though.
22 Jan 1913: We are back to constructing factories again.
28 Jan 1913: 9th Army is winning the battle - green is always good but victory in 129 days is not exactly blitzkrieg.
01 Feb 1913: Here is a view of our available manpower. A lot of detail there.
Get used to this kind of update, folks. Remember that WW1 was four years of stalemate on the Western Front. I'm trying to break that deadlock with airpower and technology. Bis bald.
