The normal partisan luck when I play Allies. Good chance that we get a partisan in China but, no, that would be to good so that can not happen. That Allies suffers partisan is less likely but sure enough. We suffer a partisan. [:(]

Because of a minor mistake US can't declare war on Japan.

US placed markerto Ge/It pool and some time after that in discussion Orm pointed out that China needs help.

So I decided to choose "Chinese build aircraft". I rolled US entry roll using PBE rolled (result 3) and clicked that option in game. Game warned me, that there are no enough markers if I fail the roll. Roll was already made, so you guys are about see a little different game here [:)]

Just to be clear both AllenK and I have said that this minor error does not have to stand. If the Allies want to carry on with the mistake then that is up to them - but so long as its clear they don't have to.

Hello everyone.

We talked more about this situation and came to conclusion that it's better to keep game "normal". I was eager to continue and try something grazy, but it might end up ruining this game. So instead of "Chinese build aircraft" US chose "resources to Western Allies" and one marker was moved to tension pool.

So we are back to normal [:)]

And respect to our enemy who wanted to fix my error to keep game in balance and interesting [&o]

Edit: probably game would have been fun or interesting, but not likely both.

Does it matter? They will all be removed from the game during conquest. Unless you added them to the CW force pool then it can be built before it is removed.

There are three ways you can get Polish units in the force pool.

1) When controlling the minor add their units into your force pool. They can now be built but some (all if completely conquered) on map units will be removed when conquered and all units on the production circle. This is a risk and might up being very expensive if the minor is conquered. The units will remain minor country units. Example: CW has does this with the Spanish units in game 1.

2) Eastern Poland special rule. If certain conditions have been met then CW may add a Polish MOT and MECH into the CW force pool after Germany and USSR is at war. These are fairly good units. They are CW units for all purposes.

3) Poland internment rule. Any Allied units, including Polish units and in this case the Polish HQ, in Eastern Poland when USSR occupies it are removed from the game. They are returned to the CW force pool, if the CW player so desires, after Germany and USSR goes to war.

CW have done 2 and 3 in game 1 as well.

Germany and Italy combined. Japan land.

Germany sends FTR to North Sea 2-box.

In a risky move, the German Heavy Cruiser Blucher loads an INF Div at Kiel and heads warily into the North Sea (I decline intercept as I'm pretty sure the Allies would anticipate it staying there). It settles in the 4-box.

Germany declines the combat. How about the Allies?

If they do, will any of the brave fellows from the RAF be joining in?

CA initiates combat.

Can NAV Swordfish reach box 1? If it can't then no planes are flying. If it reaches box 1, then Spitfire is flying too.
