Here's the first episode of the second year of WWII for you all in preview. It's coming to you with slight delay. To be perfectly honest I (Spartacus) was deep in work and forgot that it was Wednesday (Joram is on vacation). Wieke noticed this morning... my apologies and a thousand thanks for being a part of the TimeGhost Army, which thanks to you all is the coolest history community in the world

Poor Romania, a country ripped apart and being forced into war against countries it has no business fighting. But what's new?

Is it a ballroom blitz?

The title of the Hearts of Iron IV (WWII strategy game) extension for the Central Europe and Balkan countries sums it up perfectly: "Death or Dishonor"

Perhaps it should be called "Death and Dishonor". But yes that title sounds about right.

Great episode. I am curious about the damage and lives lost in London during the start of the Blitz?

Your airplane sound effects seriously need upgrading...it makes me laugh every time you show a video of 12 cylinder bomber or fighter and it sounds like a Piper Cub. Do justice to history - the sound a Spitfire makes is truly awesome! You can easily check out some flyby videos on the internet and judge for yourself. I love the work you do, please keep it up!

I can’t imagine what it must have been like in England then. We have the luxury of knowing the outcome but they, particularly the average person in the street, did not. They had to have been absolutely terrified. I wonder how many were thinking — tho it would never be voiced out loud later — “Please, Winston, just sue for peace. What hope is there?” Of course today the lore is they all stood shoulder to shoulder, “we will fight them on the beaches” and all that, but I wonder what they said in their prayers at night.
