Intercept attempt failed with a 9. Nav did not get a chance to fly. CW task force stops in Italian Coast 2 box.

CW naval moves will continue however French fleet sorties into WM as well.

Intercept attempt failed with 8. French TF joins CW TF in Italian Coast 2 box.

Will have to finish moves later but the Allies will try to pick a fight in the Italian Coast if you want to consider any air support.

Mar/Apr '40
Impulse #13 (Allied) Cont

Naval moves cont: Apart from the nominated moves previously the subject of interception attempts nothing else of note worth mentioning. There was quite a few moves to reinforce sea zones.

Allies will be searching IC and will fly Italian Gab to 0 box as requested.

Mar/Apr '40
Impulse #13 (Allied) Cont

Rail: USSR Engineer to Odessa.

Moves: Chinese continue to reorg.

Rebase: USSR bombers continue West.

Unfortunately for Allies the turn continues on 8. I did roll a 2 originally but only included NatRapsEno on the roller email so only fair I rerolled it.

Snow extends the Jap supply lines in China :(

I assume that your email should be removed from the die rolls in the interim, and I will do so until you say otherwise, or rejoin the game.

Both sides find in the Eastern Mediterranean (3-1). for no effect whatsoever.

Axis stay. Does Allies stay as well? If not, what ports will the ships seek?

Abort zone. Send the French CP to the port on Arabian sea adjacent to the 2 sea zone Addu Atoll. CW CA to Suez.
