May/Jun '40
Impulse #9 (Axis)

Japan attacks Yenan.

Edit: I think (after some hesitation) that China would pick assault so I go with that. I hope I was not in error.

Save from reorganization step.

Do you roll for partisans, or should I? Should i post instructions for the entrie Axis end of turn? If so, Germany place both their markers on offence.

Compiling it now. Maybe an hour.

Do you have control on the Japanese - US trade? Seems to be a bug there.

Yea, there is a bug with the US entry for Japanese US trade. I made sure that the Japanese BP reach US. Yet MWIF claims that Japan is at fault. If anything, it is US that is at fault since 1 oil could be delivered but I can not get the program to deliver it. Bah1
