AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back.

[AllenK]

Allies decline to fly air support. I presume Mayhemizer won't want to fly the G.50 to the 1-box.

Searches Allies 3, Axis 5. Allies go for Naval Air Combat. Gladiator flies as fighter, the rest as bombers.

[AllenK]

Allies use their points to reduce Axis air to air value by 1.

Axis roll a 12. Which bomber to clear through?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

2-2 Swordfish (2nd bomber)

[AllenK]

On a 5, Allies can choose to abort fighter or bomber. They choose the fighter. Where does it return to and does the Condor stay?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

La Spezia thanks. Condor stays.

[AllenK]

The Condor stays and dies.

[AllenK]

The Italians put up a good barrage, rolling a 8 with highest of 1, which aborts the A-22 and reduces 3 points from a Swordfish.

The BB Littorio succumbs to the first wave. Where to put the 2nd X and do the Italians stay?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

X on CL. I think we have lost enough BP's for one impulse. Ships returns to La Spezia.

[AllenK]

Some nimble handling allows the CL to escape destruction.

[AllenK]

The Regia Marina returns to La Spezia. However, they could still have a go in Cape St. Vincent. Do they try?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Let's try that.

[AllenK]

Searches Axis 4, Allies 2.

Allies go for naval air combat and a sub is sent back to base, damaged. Carry on?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

I think that was it... Italians leave to Frenc port.

[AllenK]

The Subs return to Bordeaux.

Soviet 122mm's have partial success in Korea.

[AllenK]

Soviets make some minor adjustments to the lines in the south. Communist Chinese liberate Haichow but the bulk of their forces start heading north.

The Nationalists move up on Shanghai.

[AllenK]

Two attacks declared: Shanghai (17:4 +6.5) and Korea (20.5:14 +5). Japs can add shore bombardment to both. Do they wish to?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

If I can give it to Korea, then all points there. If it is not possible, then 4 points to Shanghai.

[AllenK]

The whole lot went to Korea for 12 points added.

The Soviets decide not to fly any ground support. Do the Japs wish to? Odds now 20.5:26 +3.524

[Mayhemizer_slith]

No planes to Korea. D3A1 fly to China if Chinese ftr is dis org.

[AllenK]

The D3A1 flies, bombs and returns back where it started.

Final odds. Assaults for both?
