AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back.

[AllenK]

USSR rails 2 Mil from the interior to the border with the Axis.

USSR moves up on Kirin.

Nationalists take Shanghai. The warlord transfers allegiance. Where do the Japs wish to rebase the Ftr and Lnd forced to flee?

[Barbuesque]

Nice AAR guys. I like your games, very aggressive play.

Such a contrast of fortunes between the different theaters. Germany has to capitalize on it's early conquest of France or things might go sour for the Axis

How is US entry?

[AllenK]

Thanks Barbuesque,

Glad you are enjoying it.

US Entry

Ge/It 5 chits in Entry and 1 in Tension. Jap 4 chits in Entry and 0 in Tension.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Can they reach western Japan?

[AllenK]

Yes, both can.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Fly home and stay safe! Some western hexes of main islands.

[AllenK]

The planes fly back to Sasebo.

A newly empty Nanchang is retaken.

Northern China after movement.

ORIGINAL: AllenK

Thanks Barbuesque,

Glad you are enjoying it.

US Entry

Ge/It 5 chits in Entry and 1 in Tension. Jap 4 chits in Entry and 0 in Tension.

Ouch, and that's despite the CW and USSR déclarations of war.

[AllenK]

French partisan moves towards Brest.

No land combats.

Wavell reorgs the Trans and Queens.

Back to the Axis.

[Jagdtiger14]

I'm so used to LOC Vichy playing the board game, and not sure how MWiF works as it pertains to Vichy. What units did Vichy and Free France get?

[AllenK]

Most of the French navy is Vichy at either Marseilles or Toulon. A couple of CP's in Syria and A Trans and some CP's in Senegal.

Apart from Algeria - Inf, 6 CA/CL and 2 subs, the Free French have a couple of Terrs in Africa.

M/A 40 Axis 3

No DoW

Germany and Japan land, Italy combined.

Italian NAV fly to Italian Coast box 3. Italian subs to Cape St. Vincent box 1 and 3, Cape Verde Basin box 2.

Italy initiates combat in all three possible sea areas.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Italian Coast: I don't think CW want to fly their bomber from Malta as there are no Italian ships so I move on.

Axis 1, Allied 6.

CA Manchester is destroyed, both rolls are barely hits.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Cape St. Vincent: Axis 6, Allies 10. No combat.

Cape Verde Basin: Axis 2, Allies 8. Naval combats continue just like before...

Only box 0 is selected.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Italy uses 4 points to reduce own damage to NE and another 4 points to increase CW damage to 2D 3A.

Will CW, Belgian or Netherlands CP's take hits, where do aborted ships go and will you stay for next round?

[AllenK]

D's to 2 Netherlands. A's to remaining one and 2 Belgium. Netherlands abort to Cape Town. Belgium to Congo.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Round 2: Axis 2, Allies 3.

CW gets no damage, Italy get A and on a 7 sub is aborted.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Italy rails ARM HQ to France near Nantes, partisan is going to be destroyed.
Germany rails INF to Warsaw, ARM HQ and ARM to Transylvania.

Germany moves mostly to east, in France to west also.
Japan moves few units hex or two in here and there (Southern china, Central China, Manchuria and Korea). I should have taken combined and move some ships too...

Germany attacks partisan in France (+18B).

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Germany rebases 3 planes to east and He112 to La Spezia.
Italy rebases bomber to Sardinia.
Japan rebases fighter and bomber from Manchuria to Korea.

Weather stays the same, I don't like that... I need fine to move German troops east faster and to get more impulses.
