But the French land nicely south of Ahten, eagerly expected by exultant partisans that hold the city.

Germany at the start of the second axis impulse in July 45.
This will be the situation at the start of the allied impulse that follos.

It still possesses Stettin, Leipzig and Stuttgart (cities with factories), and Aachen (city with no factory)

Japan at the start of the axis second impulse in July 45.
This will be the situation at the start of the allied impulse that follows.

They still keep Kyoto and Osaka.

The fleet cannot help now: it is stuck in the sea of Japan and has no more planes available to fly. However, the USA are weak now, and it seems unlikely that they can capture both cities.

Eisenhower offensive in Kyoto meets with an expensive success.
But the city is captured.

Note, there was just before a combat in Batavia at +10 which I failed once more to screen-capture. It barely succeeded (roll of 9), but Batavia has nevertheless fallen into the American hands.

And south of Kyoto, the city of Osaka, already heavily damaged by the previous bombing raid, falls too into the American hands. Being the last Japanese city, Japan is now conquered.

A screenshot is hardly necessary: Japan has one army corps remaining in Japan, and some in China. None can do anything, having no supply source now.
Germany still as one city, and two corps, one in Rotterdam, long surrounded, another lost in Yugoslavia...
Italy still own Erythrea, Ethiopia, and Albania. It is the only country still possessing a Headquarter...

The three countries pass! But the turn doesn't end (20% chance)

Everybody passes but the USA which still have a forgotten combat to terminate (it should have been done in the previous impulse to avoid the risk of end of turn, and troops were ready ; I did not reload to declare the combat because I feared I would then be blocked as I was once before)... But then I don't use an offensive either.

Stuttgart falls to the American offensive. So falls the last German city.
