[AllenK]

Searches: Axis 5, Allies 10. No combat.

Do the Allies wish to have a go in the Italian Coast?

[Orm]

Yes, please.

[AllenK]

Combat is initiated by the sub.

The Italians don't fly any additional support. The Allies can fly the Beuafighter to the 2-box and the Lanc' up to the 3-box. Do they fly? Axis have a 4-factor FTR in the 0-box.

[Orm]

No additional air. Sub will be committed.

[AllenK]

A brace of 6's results in no combat.

Waiting for Mayhemizer's instruction regarding any ground strikes.

[warspite1]

Gents I am not going to be able to participate this evening. Orm has full power to do as he thinks fit with the Soviets and ChiComms.

[AllenK]

No ground strikes.

Germany rails Bf-109 from Spain to Memel.

China/Manchuria following Japanese land moves. In addition, the pinned Harbin MIL moves a hex to the east in central China, becoming disorganised.

[AllenK]

Japan rebases FTR from Okinawa to Tokyo and a LND from Canton to Formosa.

Over to Mayhemizer for German rebases.

That will be all for tonight.

[Klydon]

Sooo glad to see these games rolling again. I have a reason to visit here more than weekly. [:D]

Mar/Apr 1942
Impulse: 7 (Allied)

Land Movement (cont):

Koniev's 1st Far Eastern Front receive orders to move out despite the poor weather conditions. Koniev's left wing, consisting of 39th Rifle Army and the reinforced Mountain Corps are ordered to the foot of the Changbai Mountains, their place taken by the 2nd Siberian Corps. Koniev re-positions his HQ for better control of the forthcoming battle; the target is the Manchurian capital of Changchun which is guarded only by the 29th Garrison Army.

The US Army continue their build-up in the UK with three more units being unloaded at Glasgow.

Land Combat:
Commonwealth
The CW make an automatic attack against a partisan in central India using the 21st Indian Mechanised Corps.

Soviet Union
The Soviets launch an assault against Changchun utilising the following:

1st Siberian Corps
4th Guards Mechanised Army
39th Rifle Corps
1st Mountain Corps
Mountain Division

The odds are 19.5:3 or 5:1. The Soviets bring in two bombers and can intercept with a 5-strength MiG. The Japanese can intercept with a Zero. What do they want to do?
