Her sister Queen Elizabeth took the brunt of the damage but RMS Queen Mary (what an absolute beauty of a ship) returns to blighty with a much relieved General Gort. Why it took two of Cunard's finest to transport Gort to France is a mystery. I mean I know he was slightly plump but that's overkill surely [:D]

He had his personal staff with him. [;)] [:D]

With throws of 5 and 9 respectively, no further combat occurs.

Right peeps - where do Blucher and the Queens go? Blucher to Kiel right? and what about Liz and Mary?

and what about Liz and Mary?

Liverpool.

Both are damaged, they are moved to repair pool and land units will appear next turn. I think you can return them both to closest ports. Kiel is always good for German ships, until Brest is taken.

Field Marshall Gort is a tad miffed at having his tea and crumpets ruined on the way to Franceville. When he reaches Liverpool he tells the RAF what he thinks of their no-show....

I say! I am a tad miffed at having my tea and crumpets ruined. Where the bloody hell were the RAF? Eh?

Repairs already underway.

Next up is Strategic Bombing. Nothing for France what about the CW?

Nothing. And no ground strikes for CW.

No one called us. Is there a war going on? During tea time?!

Okay what about Rail movement? Land Movement?

Plenty of land movement. Maybe even some rail movement. Maybe you could send me the file?

China finally gets to do something.

Grp Capt Binkie: I say, its awfully quiet .
Grp Capt Winkie: Yes. Too quiet as they say in all the best war films
Grp Capt Binkie: Should we send up a patrol?
Grp Capt Winkie: No, there'll be plenty of time for all that - first I am ready for another cuppa - what do say Binkie old chap?

Is that Gp Capt or Looooooootenant Col Binkie USAAF about to spit his first taste of NAAFI tea back into the mug?

No apologies needed. I'm mightily impressed with how you are finding these great pictures so quickly.

Anyway, I think the star on his shoulder probably makes him a major so, sorry, it was the best I could come up with at short notice [:)].
