The French 2nd Army falls back to defend Paris, the French 1st Army retreats but is hampered due to lack of supplies. Denmark standing firm.

In the North Atlantic, the 2nd German U-boat is sunk. 2 RN BBs and 1 CA are slightly damaged, but both RN carriers gain experience for sinking the U-boats.

In France, the French 1st and 3rd Armies are destroyed in heavy fighting. French forces immediately launch a counter-attack and destroy a German Pz Group. Despite this, German forces reach the outskirts of Paris.

Italy is quick to take advantage of the situation and declares war on the Allies at the end of the turn.

France and Denmark surrender. The loss of France this early in the game is a setback, but a number of French forces turn "Free French", that combined with the destruction of a Pz Group helps make up for the early surrender. The Canadian 1st Army still holds Brest.

Allied forces now prepare for Axis expansion elsewhere.

In England, Prime Minister Winston Churchill declares:

"Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar."
