SO39 Axis#13

Thanks for the return to fine weather!

Germany has decided to Declare war on Netherlands, as they are clearly plotting a pre-emptive strike on the Reich in concert with CW and France.

Over to the Allies to roll US Entry, align Netherlands and place their forces.

You can do the DOW, and roll the US Entry, and then align Netherlands to CW. I will post the Dutch setup shortly.

I do not see the US entry secret as an issue since there is no way to really hide it. So you guys can roll the US entry dies anyway. And if you manage to not see the US entry then that is great. And if, not, then that is ok as well. The trick is, in my humble opinion, is to not let it influence the actions. [:D]

Ok US Entry roll made and sent (4 means US uninterested)

Will Align Netherlands to CW next

Netherland forces are placed as follows:
INF -> Amsterdam
3 CA + SUB + CP -> Rotterdam
TERR -> Palembang, NEI
TRS + 4 CP -> Padang, NEI
CP -> Batavia, NEI
4 CP -> Paramaribo, Dutch Guyana

Netherlands

Dutch Guyana

Netherlands East Indies

SO39 Axis#13

No other DoW's
No Minors Aligned.

Japan will take a land action and Italy will take a combined.

Over to Germany

GER will take a Land Action

JU87B Stukas attack Dutch shipping in Rotterdam Port

Non-phasing surprise roll was 3 giving Axis 6 SP all of which will be spent to increase Attack Column giving Expected Allied Loss risk of 2 X D & 1 x A

Axis will place 1st D on CP, which will be destroyed, and will be able to place the A where it wishes. Where would the Allies like the 2nd D placed?

Place the D on the CA Java, please.

ORIGINAL: Orm

Place the D on the CA Java, please.

Java hit, A placed on Sumatra with success

No Naval Air for IT or JP

GER adds DO17Z to 2 box

No Naval moves for IT

Allies have the opportunity to search in the North Sea if they wish

No, thank you.
