Do you want the He-115 in the Med?
I think the German and Italian naval air should join forces. Either in the North or the South. But lets delay this situation for at least one impulse and focus on getting close air support and fighter protection for the attack into Belgium.

Well that was all highly disappointing wasn't it? Much now depends on the weather. I have aircraft and organised units for one more effort - probably at Brussels - although maybe even the French is they take a chance with their deployment.

Trouble is the French have some good units coming so time is of the essence.

That was indeed disappointing since they can now mow into Brussels. [:(]

But I am not yet concerned. Although weather will decide if there will be any more attacks this turn.

Edit: We had 70% chance of capturing Antwerp and that is about as good as it gets.

Italy would like to lend that Ju-88A1 that was added to the pool for this turn.

Sure. You'll have to remind me of the lend lease procedure, but you can have it.

During the step where Germany produce new units the lend/lease form is opened and the plane is requested and then approved.

We just need to give the order for the end of turn stuff that CW performs.

Okay. In our last game you were going to lend lease a Hurricane to the Soviets. Did that happen? If so did I need to do anything different to get it?

It was added to your force pool so it is the luck of the draw when you build a fighter that decide if you get it or not.

Lend lease can be done at any time during your side's turn by bringing up the lend lease screen with cntl-J.
I thought I knew how to play this game....

Actually you had only a 40% chance - it was raining. Don't know the odds of successful GS on both units though. Flipping just one was likely the most probable result.

In better news, the 2 CW MOT corps probably both flipped to move into Brussels, and there is no third unit in the hex, either.

The odds was, after weather modification,4:1 +1 and then we would have captured the hex on a die roll of 4 or higher.

On each of the Belgian defenders we rolled 4 dies and disorganizing on three or less. I say that the average result should be two disorganized Belgians.

And, sadly, I doubt that the CW units in Brussels are disorganized since we play with railway movement.

You lose one odds column in Rain. 3:1 +1

Shouldn't there have been a tiny fractional chance though?

Ahh nevermind, forgot the Luftwaffe support. Which also made it even 45:9, no fractional.

Correct - all required to get a second crack at Belgium (Brussels).

I am declaring war on the Danes.

Should I roll for the DOW? And will you ask for a Danish setup?
