US transfers one CV from the West Coast to the East Coast. And sends out a couple of convoys between India and Phillipines.

CW sail a TRS loaded with Wavell, and escorted by HMS Ramillies, to the Bay of Biscay. CW also send two Belgian CPs to Cape St. Vincent.

Edit: I forgot to mention that the French fleet (4 ships) in Oran sail to the 4 box in West Med.

French fleet search for the German convoy in the Baltic Sea and finds it. The convoy take a severe beating and the remnants flee for a safe port. France rolled a 5 while Germany rolled a 7.

What port will Germany abort to?

Ormster what were the dice rolls result against the convoys in the Baltic? Strangely I do not seem to have received these?

EDIT: Not strange - I see that the attacks are automatically a 10 - sorry [8|]

The Italians deploy a smokescreen across the harbour to obscure the aim of the torpedo bombers (4 points to avoid combat, thanks).

The Italian smokescreen is really quite impressive.

[Orm]

And another two is rolled and that is an acceptable result since the Polish loss took a German unit with them.

Indeed. [:(]

Back on HMS Glorious the chaps hold an impromptu debrief on their way to a well-earned cup of tea

The unmistakably Gallic lines of the Duquesne-class heavy cruiser Tourville, on her way back from sinking some German merchant shipping in the Baltic.

Thank you for cheering me up.

After sleeping close to 4 hours I was feeling kind of grumpy so I needed a laugh. And you provided several. [:)]

Thank you, warspite1. [&o]

Are you going to advance with the 5-3 from the hex southeast of Warsaw?

I need cheering up to after the rubbish football last night. Still, at least all that rubbish is over now and we'll no doubt get overtaken by Arsenal and Man City....

I hate football so much [:(]

Anyway, back to ze War....

[Mayhemizer_slith]

On behalf of Italians I choose blitz table.

[Orm]

The last attack was an success. Even though the Italian divisions survived to annoy us again. But since the goal was to liberate Algiers I can't complain about a surviving division.

[Orm]

On all of our attacks we rolled low. But on the end of turn roll we rolled a 9. And the weather roll was to low for comfort. Go figure.

[warspite1]

Despite the best efforts of Field Marshal Orm (2 x 2 and a 3 - really?) [;)] the Algerian capital is liberated. Which leads me to a key question:


How many Frenchmen does it take to stick a flag on a pole?

Field Marshal warspite1 gets a tad emotional

I say that we need a new meteorologist. Yanet is being investigated for leaving information to the enemy.
