AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Axis 6, Allies 7. I almost wrote that combat is over, but CP helps Italy to find enemy ships.

Italy uses all 4 points to negate AA fire and CV Glorious sinks.

Italy stays for more, how about CW?

[AllenK]

Yes

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Axis 10, Allies 4. One CA is aborted from West Med, where do you want it to go?

[AllenK]

Gibraltar.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

One ground strike is launched and it is effective.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Japan rails MIL from central China to Manchuria.

Japan uses INF to block Communist Chinese INF and another INF makes a run to capture Lanchow (if weather stays fine). In southern China Japanese units move one hex.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Germany takes Denmark. One CA is destroyed, another CA and CP escapes to Plymouth (Liverpool had Polish ships and was not possible). Is that OK?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Four Netherlands ships are forced to rebase. Where do they want to go?

[AllenK]

Would rather have them on a east coast port. Hull would be good.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Denmark ships are in Hull now. Where do Netherlands ships go?

[AllenK]

Bristol seems good.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Germany attacks Antwerp and Liege. Germany sieges Warsaw.

Attack in Antwerp needs some ground support.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Do CW choose assault in Liege?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

And how about Antwerp?

[AllenK]

May as well. Assault in Antwerp also.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Antwerp is captured without any losses.

Edit: corrected name of city

[Mayhemizer_slith]

This was close. But Germany pulled out a perfect impulse.

This is how Germans must have felt in 1939 when nothing could stop them. And I know that on the other side feelings are little different...

Edit: Axis pulled out a perfect impulse.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Germany rebases Bf109 to Liege.

Japan rebases Ki-30 to Yenan and Ki-27 to Haichow.

Germany uses Ju52 to reorganize INF and Rundstedt to reorganize MOT, MECH and Stuka.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Europe after Axis impulse 5

[AlbertN]

Ugh what a bad German advance, the French can pour into Belgium en mass and hold Bruxxelles and Maas.
Not sure why the BEF landed that far away from France though. (And I see in Impulse 2 the reserves have not been got to their active side by using HQs)
