Axis oil usage.
Milan oil for first two oil points used, then Berlin saved for Germany.
Use Berlin saved oil for Italy like so:
All for Japan

Re: Storm Clouds Gathering (4-player game)
Send one saved oil to production for Germany
Italy is owed a BP because someone insisted on moving the 4-3 back next to Turin. I will collect it sometime in the future, let's move on for now.

Re: Storm Clouds Gathering (4-player game)
There seems to be odd bugs in the German and Italian oil usage forms. Both have weird fractions for their oil need lines, and the Italian oil needed line is even negative. Someone has installed warp engines on the Italian ships?
I thought I knew how to play this game....

Re: Storm Clouds Gathering (4-player game)
Put pilots in the Stukas with 4 range.
Sub in Kiel.
Stukas in Saarbrucken and Karlsruhe. 7-5 armor in Saarbrucken, 7-5 mech in Karlsruhe. 7-6 armor and mech in Frankfurt.
For Italy BB in La Spezia. Div in Turin.
Pilot in D3A1 land based naval bomber for Japan. CP, cruiser, and infantry corps in Tokyo. D3A1 in Sasebo.
No change in lending. If the Axis win the initiative the Axis will move first but no reroll.

We could get Italy the missing BP now by using one oil to go to production. Thus owing Italy one oil instead.

The hour is late, and I need to co-ordinate with my Allies before we can continue. I hope to be able to do so tomorrow.

CW search in the Italian Coast.
Any Axis air added? Germany has a couple that reach the sea area, and Italy has four.

Fly the shortrange Falco to the 0 box, that's it.

That was enough for my submarine commander to cancel the attack.
