Anyway. The supply situation in Iraq is not what you had planned for. And there might be a bug with if Baghdad is a secondary supply source for Italy. The bug might be that it is not even though it should be.

Therefore I am wondering if there is anything we can do to help so that the situation can be resolved so that the game continues to be playable and fun for all?

Yes, the liberated vs conquered difference I did not understand either, so that's something else I learned.

I don't have as much time on the weekends in the Fall because it's American football season now. I hope to get to the turn late this evening.

Naval actions for Italy and Japan, land for Germany.

Intercept this port attack? Japan has a 5 strength CVP that can intercept.

Yes, please. Stay to end. Land whence. Target bombers.

With the exception of the fighters who scrambled, the British are taken by complete surprise. The Japanese spend 4 points to decrease the British fighter strength.

AA was effective, reducing the bomber by 3.

The Ranger is damaged.

I thought that all your ships except the Ranger were disorganized, so I saw no need to use the 3 points to increase damage. However, now I see you have one ship not disoranized so I will increase the damage after all to get the 3 aborts.

No worries about not understanding that supply situation. I understand it now. Apparently you aren't having fun, that's too bad. I'm having a blast.

Splendid. That you have a blast that is.

Just wish that I, as CW, would have a blast at least once. I feel like I have a huge target sign on me every time I play CW. :D Even though I know that feeling isn't true. However. Most of my games as CW has seen a effort by Axis to go after CW in 1941 instead of going after USSR. :lol:

Anyway. I am having fun as well. Just worried that the supply situation in Iraq... Glad to see that was nothing to be concerned about. Onwards to new searches..
