A pirate takes his hand off of the camera.
"Ahoy me Maties!" 
A collective greeting fills the room.

"Cap'an Hean has so generously prepared a powerpoint show for ye."

Hean II crawls onto a table as he's lifted up by the pirate.
He looks around in confusion.

The pirate gets down under the table and starts talking in a high pitched voice.
"The Iberians are bad... and we are winning!"
"Hoorah!" the pirates yell.

"You're not supposed to talk during the video!" The pirate yells
"So in the south." He continues with his high pitched murmuring.
The real baby interrupts. "GOOG GO GA GA!"
The pirate ends the recording.


In the Gibraltar-Malaga Front:

Some 200 thousand soldiers are now marching towards Madrid. They have traversed the rivers, crossed the bridges, walked through the valleys, and burnt everything behind them.
Despite stiffening resistance as the advances continue, the soldiers have been able to reach incredible speeds as they outnumber the Iberians on the front and are able to live off of the land, looting cities such as Cordoba and Seville.
The advance has slowed as more Iberian soldiers are redirected towards the front, and the land becomes more sparse. 
However, due to most Iberian resources being concentrated in Barcelona and the effectiveness of Dauchh Palkian soldiers wiping out Iberian fortifications in the mountains, Iberia has been unable to regain any territory in the front. 

In the Faro Front:

The Faro front has seen similair success as of those in Malaga. Forces between the Malaga and Faro front have joined forces to take control of the gaps and mountains between, providing security to the Faro front. The rivers and bridges are now under control, and most infrastructure towards Madrid has been destroyed. Needless to say, without much retalliation, Iberia will not be able to redirect supplies and soldiers from Portugal to Madrid.
More bombing runs have also reinforced that.

In the Almeria Front:
Alermia has remained as less important to the war, Dauchh Palkian and Ausparian troops have advanced north to the river to try and stop some Iberian transports. Aditionally, some advances have been made towards Granada. 

In the Valencia Front:
The Italians and Ausparians have retreated their advance and as Italian troops leave Ausparians remain fighting in Valencia. The Iberians have reconquered all of the lost territory besides the city itself. 
However, the decision to leave Iberia was unpopular amongst the people and Italy's allies, as a result the decision has been reversed and 50 thousand Italian troops have been transported to Valencia and more shipments of troops are underway.

Iberia has battled for the city, slowly advancing towards the port and they have taken control of the Airport. This has denied the Ausparians and Italians a critical transport hub, forcing bombers and fighters to take longer distances to get to their targets.

In the Catalonia Front:
Barcelonia has emerged as the deadliest battle of the war, by far. Dauchh Palkian analysts said there may be as many dead as 15 thousand Ausparians and 30 thousand Iberians, or greater.
Ausparia has made advances towards Lleida and has reinforced its occupation of Girona. Barcelona remains contested but most of the city is in Ausparian hands, with Iberia battling for the outskirts. Iberia has made some advancements in the city but  local cities are falling to Ausparian forces, however slowly. Most of the Iberian and Ausparian resources are concentrated here.

In the Morroco Front:
Iberian and Legion soldiers have pushed back Dauchh Palkian and Victorian troops in Tangier and Ceuta. 
Intense fighting has ensued in Tangier in close urban combat, resulting in high numbers of casualties for both sides.
Dauchh Palki has called on its allies to reinforce the front and send trops in. Some generals have contemplated razing the cities and retreating to reinforce the Malaga front.

In the Gijon Front:

Victorian soldiers have made subtle but nonetheless important advances in Northern Iberia. They have taken the city of Oviedo and a battle between outnumbered Iberian soldiers in Leon is currently underway.
Victorian Soldiers are providing a transport hub for aircraft in the region, and have conducted bombings of infrastructure to Madrid. So far they have faced little resistance and number some 40-50 Thousand troops.


Total Casualties so far on the Coalition side number around 35 Thousand, with them claiming Iberia has suffered anywhere from 50 to 80 Thousand.
Coalition air superiority and blockade remains uncontested as of November 29th 2091.
