Ugh, if I have to explain then all the magic goes away. I am mostly just abysmally pessimistic and want something easy...

We don't need Mutriqa's resources at the moment. I'm not even sure it would lower the cost of anything, let alone enough to be worth two turns spent attacking there.

It would help lower the cost of our twin torpedo fighter/bomber. If those get cheap, there won't be many cannalans left.

We don't have enough ore for that. It costs 5/4 and we have 4/3. With Mutriqa's oil we'd have 4/4, it'd still be expensive.

In which case, let's make sure we can take the jungle first. At the moment, I don't see that happening in the next two turns. We went for a naval advantage tech for our revision, we may not make any progress in the jungle this turn.

No but we did get better multi-role aircraft. We'll start taking back the air.

Because screw the Plains. There's no resources there, and the Cannalans are only holding on there because of naval fire support, meaning they can't push further inland. Meanwhile, since we didn't vote to join Comintern, we WILL need to conquer and exploit the northern island's resources at some point. I'd rather it be now when we only have one front we desperately need to take (the Jungle).

...yeah, alright. I guess you're right, we don't gain much from reconquering the plains at the moment. And yeah, our Anti-Comintern pact may be mostly for show, but it does give us some sort of justification for conquering (what I am going to refer to as) Mutriqa.
...
Hopefully doing so doesn't start WWII.

I would like to remind people we named that island "al-Mutriqa"

I would also like to remind people the Comintern didnt get involved until Germany invaded Russia, but it is possible that like Britain with Myark they will chooses to cede the island.
