No port strikes. No naval air.

[Orm]

Three large ships, three destroyers, five escort vessels, and 10–12 aircraft passed Marstrand, course 205°/20.

[Orm]

Naval Movement:

Italy:
One TRS loaded with one German MIL sail to Kalamai from La Spezia. It is escorted by one CA.
One BB, and one CA, sail from La Spezia to the 3-box in East Med. The CA embark the German PARA Div from Lemnos.

One BB, and two CA, leave Kiel and sail through the North Sea where HMS Warspite fail to even search for the German fleet. The three German ships enter Faeroes Gap and begin searching for enemy shipping.

[Orm]

Germany initiate a search in Faeroes Gap. CW can send out two aircraft. The ATR3 reach the 0-box. The NAV4 can reach up to the 3-box.

Will CW reinforce the sea area with any planes?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

ATR3 to box 0 and NAV4 to box 3, thank you.

[Orm]

No combat in Faeroes Gap. (Axis 5, Allies 7)

[Orm]

No additional naval searches.

[Orm]

It has been a very long day for me. So I am retiring for the night. The action will continue tomorrow.

[Orm]

No strategic bombing. No Ground Strikes.


Rail Movement:

Germany:
ART (Paris) -> Warsaw


Land Movement:

Germany:
MIL (Kalamai) -> 73,49
INF Div (Kalamai) -> 73,49
INF (69,48) -> 70,49 - via Salonica
HQI (59,26) -> Nantes

Japan:
Army group Terauchi attempt to create a pocket around Lan-Chow
2nd MOT switch place with the MAR Div
In the south the forces march towards the Kunming-Hanoi railway
HQI (75,138) -> Sian

Invasion:
PARA Div (East Med) -> Athens

Paradrop:
PARA (71,46) -> Athens

Land Combat:

Germany attacks Athens
Japan attacks the GARR in hex 73,131

Current odds on Athens is 12.5:3 or +9.7 if the notional is included. Germany can add 11 points in air support. Italy might be able to add one point in air support (not sure on that one). And Italy can add 8 points in shore bombardment. Will CW include the notional or not?


Picture from Nov/Dec '40 Impulse #4 (Axis) - Land Combat

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Yes for notional.

MIL from La Spezia was a surprise, didn’t see it coming. I check odds with INF in and out of Athens, but failed to see that MIL coming.

[Orm]

Italy adds 8 points shore bombardment to the attack on Athens.
Germany add 11 points in ground support to the attack on Athens.

Japan fly ground support with two NAV2, and one FTR2, to the attack on the Communist GARR. They add 5 points in support.

The attack on Athens is automatic.
