Historical Background
1st Stage Operations
As of the latest information from the devs, the 1st Stage Operations will cover the Atlantic and North Africa, with French cruiser Gloire as one of the new kanmusu of the event. With that in mind, it is important to know who Gloire is and her career.
Gloire is a French La Galissonnière-class cruiser. She had an active time in the Atlantic in the opening years of the war. She made a trip to Canada and escorted a convoy back to mainland Europe. She was stationed in Brest and was part of the famous Force de Raid. Force L of Force de Raide comprised of Dunkerque, Béarn, Montcalm, Georges Leygues, L'Audacieux, Le Fantasque, Le Malin, Le Terrible, Le Triomphant, L'Indomptable, Mogador, Volta, and Gloire. Gloired took part in operations that covered convoy KJ4 from Kingston, Jamaica to the British Isles to prevent attacks by the pocket battleship Deutschland. They then moved from Brest to Mers El Kebir. With the fall of France she came under Vichy French control. She wasn't present during the Attack on Mers El Kebir nor the Battle of Dakar and managed to survive into the rejoining of the Free French after Operation Torch. She had her refit in New York in 1943 and she then operated from Dakar along other French and Italian cruisers. She covered the areas around the Central and Southern areas of the Atlantic. She was then moved to the Mediterranean and supported the landings at Anzio. She then transferred to Southern France for Operation Dragoon in August 1944. She will continue to support Allied operations in the South of France until the end of the war.
The main operations involving Gloire are listed below.
Force De Raid: Force L Patrols in the Atlantic
Is part of Gloire's early career as part of Force de Raid. They were initially fielded when the German Pocket Battleship Admiral Graf Spee started operations against Allied Merchant shipping in the Southern Atlantic. She also took part in convoy escort duties to protect said convoy from the German Pocket Battleship Deutschland. In between these, she was part of several patrol operations and transport operations spanning from Western France, the Atlantic, North Africa, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and back.
Battle of Dakar
?
Battle of Mers El Kebir
The Royal Navy Force H engaged the Vichy French Force de Raid moored in the port. This resulted in
Central and Southern Atlantic Patrols
After her being reinstated in the Free French Navy she took part in operations to seek and destroy Axis Blockade runners in the Central and Southern regions of the Atlantic Ocean. She made patrols from Dakar all to the seas way of Southeastern section of South America and lower Southwestern Africa. These areas were part of the Middle and South Atlantic convoy routes and was part of the larger Battle for the Atlantic.
Battle of Anzio and shelling Bay of Gaeta
She took part in the invasion of Anzio during Operation Shingle. She is notable for her role in providing shelling support to the Allied Landings and she fired 604 rounds at Bay of Gaeta.
Operation Dragoon
- Copied from Wikipedia: Operation Dragoon
Operation Dragoon was the code name for the landing operation of the Allied invasion of Provence (Southern France) on the 15th of August 1944. Although initially designed to be executed in conjunction with Operation Overlord, the Allied landing in Normandy, a lack of available resources led to a cancellation of the second landing. By July 1944 the landing was reconsidered, as the clogged-up ports in Normandy did not have the capacity to adequately supply the Allied forces. Concurrently, the High Command of the French Liberation Army pushed for a revival of the operation that would include large numbers of French troops. As a result, the operation was finally approved in July to be executed in August.
- Involved Forces
The operation was divided into four main forces, each with a naval component, and involving ships from the US Navy, Royal Navy, and the FNFL.
- Nevada, Tuscaloosa, and Brooklyn were part of the Allied forces.
- Those forces were relatively unopposed on the sea, the German forces only being a "security flotilla".
- See Allied order of battle for Operation Dragoon.
2nd Stage Operations
The Extra Operations have been confirmed to be based on the historical Operation MO (MO作戦, Mo Sakusen). The Operation has been dubbed "The New MO Operation" (新MO作戦, Shin MO Sakusen).
This was based on the planned invasion of New Guinea, in reality, this was thwarted at the Battle of the Coral Sea when the US Navy learned the Japanese plan via intercepting Japanese intelligence.
See Operation Mo on Wikipedia.

Operation KON
In May 1944, Allied forces launched an invasion of the island of Biak, where the IJA had a major airbase. In response, Japanese forces attempted significant relief and reinforcement efforts. The IJN plan for this was labeled Operation KON; unfortunately, while some reinforcements were able to reach the island, the initial wave of Operation KON was aborted after surprise was lost, and subsequent waves were canceled after Allied attacks began against the Marianas.
