User blog:USS Enterprise CVN-65/Assault on the Regia Marina: Planning

With the RM at war with the AIF, and othre navies willing to support us, we need to attack them. If any navy wants to join, they are welcome.

Also, we intend to have little civilian causalties as we assault the RM, we can't save them all though

I have devised a plan to take them out as soon as possible.

We'll start off with air raids against enemy ports, airbases, missile sites, and other points of interest so they cannot produce anything

We'll then send our fleet in, dropping troops off at the Gibraltar strait to advance through North Africa and Spain. Since the Russians agreed to help, they will move in from the east.

Our fleets will advance through the Mediterranean Sea and smash anything in our way. Orbital bombardment is best for this, as we suffer less causalties in the naval part of this action.

The land forces advance through, taking out enemies as the progress. Fighter jets will help a lot in this role.

As the RM struggles to keep its territory, UAC ships will bombard Rome and deploy as many troops as possible. That way we can take out their central command, if we can't assult with troops, we'll just cross our fingers that bombardments will help.

As our fleets close in on Italy, they'll set up bases on islands they capture for bombing raids and places for transports to deliver troops and suppliesd. Silicy will be a major one for our bombers if we take it.

Once that is secured, we commence a large amphibious assault on Italy starting with the end of the "boot" and upwards as the Russians and our troops in Europe close in from the top.

More details will be added, this is a basic set up on how it will begin
