Map Contest IV: Round I
- Thread starter Shadow Knight
- Start date
Memo:
From: Allied High Command
To: General Geroge Patton
Re: Operation Sea-Tiger
It has been decided that Stalin cannot be trusted to give up the land siezed after this war. It has also been decided that in order to minimize Soivet gain, we must begin a Balkan Front. Below is the outline of Operation Sea-Tiger, a plan to invade Greece, and immediatly drive North and sieze the Rumanian Oil Fields before the Soivets can. Intelligence suggests that the German units in Greece are poorly suppiled and poorly trained, but that their units in Rumania are tougher. We are halting our main advance on the North of Italy so we may stage this invasion.
Key:
Yellow: Allied Control
Brown: German Control
Light Red: Turkey
Blue: Projected Naval Landings
Green: Projected Ground Offensive Route
Pink: Project Major Battles
Dark Red: Possible Soivet Movement

I know that in Real Timeline:
-Stalin died in 1953
-Warsew Pact was created in 1955
But as allied offensive trough Balkans hepled right-wing resistences and/or collaborationist governments (as Horthy's Hungary), USSR have a more radical oppositions with allies. In fact, Cold War could be considered to begun since 1944.-Warsew Pact was created in 1955
The necessary of a unconscessional position against "american imperialism" make Stalin's opponents less powerfuls and prevent the assassination of the "man of steel".
And Warsaw Pact came earlier for the same reasons : harder relations between USSR and USA
