Storm Clouds Gathering (4-player game)

[NatRapsEno]

Axis find to the Allied advantage 4-2. Luckily for the Germans, the sub survived the damage. Germans abort the zone after one round of combat.

Now East Med. Support?

[Orm]

No, thank you.

[NatRapsEno]

Axis find again 4-2. Axis decline naval air. Do the Allies wish to force a naval air?

[Orm]

No naval air. Thank you.

[NatRapsEno]

Then the Axis decide to make it a sub combat. Use the two points to increase to a damage. CP destroyed.

Axis will stay in zone. Allies?

[Orm]

Yes, Allies stay the zone.

Well played.

[NatRapsEno]

Thanks.

Miss on second round search.

[NatRapsEno]

Forgot screenshot of Greece ground strike but sent both Stukas against the Sydney militia and one hit.

Not so lucky against Alexandria:

Chose to save the Greek militia since it will come back in Greece next turn. We can change this if don't like this decision.

Germany rebased transport to Southern Italy. One fighter to La Spezia, Heija to central Germany. Italy rebased bomber to Libya. Japan rebased two navs to China.

Turn ends. No partisans. Germany placed their markers on defense and move best one over. Placed your marker on Offense. Turn sent for US Entry play.

[Orm]

US placed their marker in the European pool, and then played.Embargo on Strategic Materials, and US East Coast escorts. Both options moved one marker to the tension pool.

Save sent.

[NatRapsEno]

Allied RTB sent.

[NatRapsEno]

I will be away for an hour. It's best that the person who does RTB first send further instructions for the EOT in order to avoid the oil bug. Once the USA and USSR enter the war that becomes a lot harder but I think that's best for now. Let me know if you feel otherwise.

[Orm]

Sounds like a plan, so lets go with that.
