I figure there aren’t too many things classified as Islands that would have air bases so far away as to make them invulnerable to shore bombardment. The air fields on Guadalcanal and Wake island certainly got hit and both Hickam and Pearl could be hit from the sea. By definition, this ability assumes no defenders. Even a single scrambling fighter or defending destroyer nullifies the ability.

The Fuhrer was just informed the Allies had obtained a Economic Victory. True to form, he pulled his Luger and shot the poor sod in the forehead and then headed down into his bunker.
The War continues.

It’s early 1950 and Germany has had enough. The Wehrmacht successfully blows up Hitler and his inner circle. They immediately ask for a cease fire but are forced to accept unconditional surrender.
Tojo has a massive stroke and is incapacitated. While the Army and many in the Navy as well, want to fight to the death, the Emperor has enough foresight to understand it is better to surrender now and face occupation before all of Japan is burned to the ground. He knows the Americans will grow tired of occupation and in 10 years Japan will once again begin to take it’s rightful place as a world power.
Japan, while not in as bad of position militarily as Germany, asks for surrender terms. The USA tries to force an unconditional surrender on Japan as well. Japan refuses and leaks to the American press their desire to end the war.
The Americans, war weary themselves, accept less than unconditional surrender and the war is over.
I used a prerelease version of triplea which had a few errors and skewed things a bit but was still fun. Gonna start a new one with an earlier JPN attack and focus on DEI before china. We’ll see how it goes lol

@barnee The Reich Counterattacks !
While successful, the Wehrmacht did not possess enough resources to push the British back in the West and the Americans out of the Italian capital.
A probable suicide mission by a Fallschirmjäger division was able to secure the Caucasus and it’s much needed resources for the Deutsche war machine.
The fuhrer has taken to cleaning his luger multiple times a day.

You only need to use the Luger once !

heh heh adolf has grown quite fond of it. Rumor has it that he talks to it while cleaning lol

Late 1948 and the Reich’s situation is dire. The fuhrer is considering issuing a decree creating the Volkssturm.
While he considers his Japanese allies to be untermenschen themselves, he is desperately willing them to slaughter as many godless communists as possible.
Will it be enough ?

The Fuhrer used a Walther - not Luger…
-
They never didn’t find the remains of adolf hitler…
-
@cornelis-post i thought his left jawbone was found ?
@The-Captain never knew that. I guess no need for the heavy artillery if you’re gonna shoot yourself in the head lol.
Well, it’s not over yet. japan has turned into a monster. Probably shoulda built some Bombers last turn.
Getting ready to roll another round : )

Yes they can!

The Wehrmacht was able to destroy the American Tank Army in Northern Italy but suffered heavy Luftwaffe casualties.
Is this their Last Gasp ?
Manpower is almost completely depleted.
-
Paris Liberated ! British Across The Rhine !
The situation is critical for Deutscheland . Unbeknownst to the fuhrer, some party officials are putting out peace feelers to the Western Allies.
-
No it’s not!
-
I don’t know how I feel about those. Total death was the only way for an honourable (and rule following) loss. But now…
Japan must win!
-
The Wehrmacht has made it to the gates of moscow. Unfortunately for them, there isn’t much Wehrmacht left.
