Italy uses 4 points to get NE to their submarine and 4 points to increase damage.

Again, I don't know how to place damage. I think France has less CP reserves so I placed all damage to CW convoys. This can be redone.

2nd round: Axis 9, Allied 10. Combat is over.

I aborted CP to Gibraltar.

West Med: Axis 4, Allied 6.

Italy chooses only box 0 and sinks one CP and aborts other one.

Italy stays, how about France?

May as well.

All my decisions were good or at least good enough?

Axis dice is hot. Axis are doing so good I almost regret using this start for "Das Experiment". Next land move might give a hint from my plans...

West Med round 2: Axis 1, Allied 3. Both sides find.

Now it is up to air to air combat rolls...

Axis have 2 surprise points.

Does CVP fly as fighter?

When are your dice any different from hot?

Certainly does.

Without PBE rolled nobody could tell if I'm lucky or cheater... My dice is that hot.

Italy uses 2 surprise points to reduce enemy A2A value.

French CV is damaged.

Italy stays for more, how about France?

Time to leave.

Send them to Marseilles.

Axis only grounds strike is called "nice try".

Germany rails INF div to Milan, Berlin MIL to Stuttgart and Magdeburg MIL to Frederikshavn.

Germany attacks Netherlands. Troops in Poland are not moving west, they move east and take positions on USSR border.

I believe it is time to reveal what "Das Experiment" is all about. Germany attacks USSR and leaves France alone (unless they do something very stupid). At some point Germany might attack France, but the idea is to test how bad Germany can hit USSR in early 1940 and how bad Allies can hit Germany when France does not collapse. I believe Allies will win, but I want to see how it happens.

3 attacks (Netherlands, Yugoslavia and China).

Axis use HQ support in Yugoslavia and China. In Netherlands and Yugoslavia Germany uses 4 points ground support.

Is Amsterdam Assault?

After realizing Blitz is not an option for Allies I moved on.

Overrun rolls and results:
2 CP is destroyed
4 CA Java is destroyed
3 CA Sumatra is destroyed
10 CA De Ruyter escaped
4 CP is destroyed

Pretty impressive overrun.

When CA rebases, Germany intercepts (2 rolled) it in North Sea and sends NAV to box 2. Allied roll is 7.

CA De Ruyter sinks in North Sea.

Belgrade falls

How about China, Assault or Blitz?

Assault, thanks.

I don't fail any rolls. Even on my standards this is going well.
