@@FireSignd The Italians invaded Greece with 5 division because the idiot who was in command of the invasion wanted to get all the glory, and as such he didn't want other armies around to help him out. Similar to the Winter War, the Italians actually began the war with fewer soldiers and supplies that the greek had.

it actually ended up delaying it by a year since the focus can only be done before august or something and golden was forced to help them and missed the opportunity to take the focus

[@tuluppampam]

I'm pretty sure Barbarossa started around when it was planned and wasn't delayed by Italian incompetence Apparently mud was a big problem and that is why every single invasion started during June (all of them, except when Hitler wanted the new tanks to arrive to the Eastern front)

[@mrwinterhd5202]

@@tuluppampam The reasons for the postponement of Barbarossa from the initially planned date of 15 May to the actual invasion date of 22 June 1941 (a 38-day delay) are debated. The reason most commonly cited is the unforeseen contingency of invading Yugoslavia and Greece in April 1941. Historian Thomas B. Buell indicates that Finland and Romania, which weren't involved in initial German planning, needed additional time to prepare to participate in the invasion. Buell adds that an unusually wet winter kept rivers at full flood until late spring. The floods may have discouraged an earlier attack, even if they occurred before the end of the Balkans Campaign.
