CW + France will do a naval impulse. Should I begin with the impulse or do you want to have the first go at it?

Why don't you crack on with that while I compose my speech to the nation....

Does USSR plan to make any naval moves?

I think it is better if you do the moves up to naval movement.

Send out the British FTR3 in Liverpool to the 3-box in Bay of Biscay.

Hold up - are the US doing anything?

No. USA picked a one (1) for US entry chit! So I will wait at least one turn.

If we miss then it might be a long, long time for another try.

Edit: Maybe I should add that I thought that there would be one chit for the loss of Gibraltar.

You could convince me otherwise if you feel it is worth to try.

If I was the Japanese I would expend a big effort to take Vladivostok. I intend to keep 2 decent units in the city until I can get further reinforcement. What do you think to committing my Strat bomber this early? I feel inclined to hold in reserve?

Ignore me. I've thought about this a lot since posting and I know the way forward in my own mind [:)]

I hope that you plan to open up the Trans-Manchurian railway as a supply route and a possible rail link back to Europe.

I thought it was open. I have searched Siberia, Trans, Manchuria, railroad, railway but cannot see anything I need to do to get supply or the railway up and running (I defo used it earlier in the game).

There is no special rule here. I was referring to the part controlled by Japan. USSR needs to step on every hex of it unless they plan to wait until Manchuria is liberated.

The railway supply link from Vladivostok can be vulnerable since it goes so close to the coast. A Soviet controlled rail route from Chita to Harbin could make a possible Japanese counter offensive easier to handle.

If this continues and becomes a winter war you could find good use of ski troops. Especially since there should be lots of space to manoeuvre.

Can you do the naval searches and the remainder of the impulse?

Sure

Orm did you mean to leave the AT unit on its own?

No.

No.

So what do you want me to do with it?

There must be some sort of misunderstanding. I do not want to move the cavalry that is stacked with the AT.

Could it be the cavalry division order that is the cause of this? It is in Kweiyang and is to move Eastwards towards the HQI.

Thats it.

Can I begin our impulse, and select a land impulse for USSR?
