CW/US End of Turn

US adds a chit to the Jap pool. US elects to freeze Japanese assets. A 2 sees a chit moved to the Jap tension pool.

Any changes to production? With existing orders, production is showing as 15 BP's.

Removing the SUB from production should do the trick.

CW reorgs all for 1.35 oil points (1 oil in Port of Spain used).

US reorgs all (0.3) for 0 oil points.

There is no 6-3 INF in Tsinan. In fact Japanese units showed as available to breakdown. Carry on or not, as I'm not sure if I've done something wrong in an earlier step?

There should be no Japanese breakdown. My bad. Do continue.

I copied my end of turn orders from a previous turn. And removed that sentence. I must then have taken back that removal and missed it. I am sorry about that. The offending line has now been edited out.

Does Germany wish to upgrade Scharnhorst's guns?

No, thank you.

I've assigned one German pilot to a Bf-109 F4 as the instructions say FTR to Aachen. Does Germany wish to keep the other pilot in the reserve?

No, the other aircraft is the Condor (NAV) thanks.

Note to self, visit to optician to check reading glasses needed!

I forgot that we did not play this few days ago. I thought I received email that Axis played impulse and I saw nothing here...

Can someone explain to me how the French GAR in Lyons is out of supply? The Lyons bakers went on strike?

Never mind. The Axis had captured Lyons, and the GAR had walk in, and the end of turn prevented it from being destroyed. At least I think that is what happened. The Axis can't catch a break in this game.

Lyons was captured and GAR took Lyons that turn. Now it is in supply and GAR prepares to attack Axis units behind front line anytime...
