Impulse #1 (Axis)

Land Movement:

Japan:
- Advance westwards in Siberia. CAV Div reach Krasnoyarsk.
- Withdraw slightly in central Burma
- INF Div advance NE along railway from southern India. Cocanada is captured along the way.

Germany:
- Finnish front: INF -> Viipuri
- East front North: No movement.
- East front Central: Concentrate forces on Chelyabinsk. AG Rundstedt withdraw towards Kazan.
- East front South: 4 Korps reach the Turkish border. A few units moves towards Krasnodar. A few units prepares to attack the 1st Siberian Corps.
- Other fronts: Minor movement.

Germany makes two attacks. No offensive support. USSR can support the defence of Chelyabinsk with the ART, and the attack NE of Astrakhan with the LND4.

Current odds are:
Chelyabinsk: 42:2 or +21 -> With defensive support +19 is expected.
NE Astrakhan: 21:7 or +7,5 blitz -> With defensive support +5,7 blitz is expected.

The attack goes well enough, as the supply route to Manstein is opened.

Edit: Note that the Soviet INF is destroyed (not shattered).
