Our forces in the netherlands get pushed back into belgium before they are able to stop the dutch counterattack. We reinforce the front with 25,000 troops and wait till night. |

With the reinforcements we once again make it into the netherlands this time they can't stop us as we have pulled half our infantry and all our tanks to the front. We make it 1/4 of the way though the country before the dutch assemble a army to slow us down but they know we won't be stopped. |

Switzerland counterproposes again.
-Switzerland and Italy both provide 4 miles of DMZ
-Return of all prisoners
-50% reparations of damage done by firebombing
-The City of Milan and a one mile wide corridor leading to it are ceded to Switzerland
Switzerland knows if they stall negotiations long enough, England and Greece will enter the war on Italy, and they can get more land that way. |

Switzerland offers a one month ceasefire to continue negotiations, if Italy is interested. |
|
|
Italia accepts- but Mussolini hires raiders and private armies to sack the region from Switzerland to Milan and often halts trade. |

Switzerland warns Italy that any attack by Italian citizens or men traced back to Italian payrolls will be considered an act of war during a ceasefire, ending it and bringing in England and Greece.
'
They propose moving the armies back to the DMZ for negotiations. |
|
|
After publicly denouncing the traders who have been attacking persons on the road to Milan- Mussolini agrees to bush the armies back to the DMZ. |

Once the armies reach the DMZ, Switzerland asks what Italy thinks of the new terms. |

Does italy accept luxembourg's alliance?)
___
We contuine driving though Netherlands but with heavy casualites but we finally reach the capital. Outnumbered and their forces exhausted they still do not surrender. They raise as many troops as possible to defend the city but many have NO training and desert. Still with minimal troops they stand. We have no other choice and order the advance.
It was a bloody battle with them fighting for their lives. In the end our numbers prevailed and defeated them. Netherlands was added to our empire. |
|
|
Yes.
====
- 4 Miles of Italian DMZ, 3 of Swiss
- Return of All Prisoners
- 40% pays of //Total// damage. |

(I think Greece/Switzerland/England/Ireland vs Italy/USA would be a neat match up. But it'll have to wait.
After Friday, I won't be on much until August. |

Isn't Milan one of Italy's biggest cities? I actually didn't think that treaty would work. The loss of Milan and a corridor to it is probably more than you taking 4 miles DMZ would have done. |
