Just musing to fill in the dreary hours at work so don't get all mad at me.
Churchill manages to scrape together his little expeditionary force of British, French and some free Polish forces to go to the aid of Finland. There are all sorts of complications with Norway and Sweden and we've maybe lost friends because of it, but the troops are in Finland, fighting Russians. Meanwhile RAF wellington bombers based in the Near East attack targets in the southern Soviet Union with little success. We lose a few Wellingtons and their crews are never seen again whether they bale out or not. Britain and France are at war with Germany and the Soviet Union.
Our fairly pathetic military contribution however can't save Finland from being eventually steamrollered although perhaps our presence makes a ceasefire more complicated and ultimately Finland becomes an SSR. The first Hurricane aces of WW2 are based in Finland rather than France.
Come Spring the Germans invade Denmark and Southern Norway, the soviets invade Northern Norway. What happens in Sweden? Are they coerced/bullied into joining the axis?
France falls as per OTL along with Belgium and Holland. Soviet Union invades Persia possibly?
August 1940 The battle of Britain is kicking off with the addition of Soviet SB2s etc. My question is what's soviet amphibious assault capability like?
