It’s just come in – it’s true. Our Awful Overlord; the Prince of Darkness, and the wielder of absolute power within our cursed realm has vacated the throne in mysterious circumstances. Quite where he has gone is beyond the knowledge of even his most inner circle.

Here’s part 2 of my Hearts of Iron 3 Campaign Diary, detailing October 1939. We see an Italian blitzkrieg dominating Western affairs, while the forces of Carton de Wiart; a low ranking, but obstinate British division commander prove every bit as wily and stubborn as his grizzled reputation suggests.
With Hearts of Iron 3 proving to be such a leviathan game, I decided to accompany our verdict of it with a long term campaign diary to demonstrate how a full play of the campaign could turn out, and have a laugh a long the way.
