New Turn: Initiative

Both sides rolled a '1' on the initiative roll and that means, unfortunately, that Axis has the initiative. (Axis had +1 on the die roll [:(])

The question now is whether Axis will move first or not. (More pictures later but I have to do some errands first)

Can you please post a picture of Bay of Biscay?

And where did you place Spanish Mech?

The Spanish Mech was placed in Bilbao. Allied Generals have apparently concluded that mechanized units works splendid in mountainous terrain.

And a picture of Bay of Biscay. [:)]

All 5 reinforcing CW pilots were based in Liverpool.

The Soviet Army participate in a huge, humanitarian, research project: How Mosquitoes, and the Midnight Sun, affect Human Sleeping Habits.

I would like to tell everyone before anyone gets confused that when Italy built synth plant game put wrong plant to production circle (the one that is placed to Africa). That one is going to be ignored/destroyed and another one is going to be built. This cannot be fixed using debug tool.

So Germany did not build pilot you see in AAR and sends 6 BP's to Italy. Italy did not build pilot and saved 2 BP's. Next turn Italy builds new plant. 6 + 2 BP's will be compensated to Germany and Italy. For example when pilot is killed we fix dice so that pilot is not killed.

Hey! Brilliant idea. I just saw an update to the AAR thread so was keen to see the latest - except it wasn't the AAR thread. It said Warspite1 keep out! [:)]

Good one guys - and it worked [:)] [&o]

Axis choose to go first [:)]

Never had any doubt. [:)]

Save will be mailed shortly.

I get online this evening.

The new weather. Why there are not some nice summer storms eludes me. [;)]

I quit reading the Axis thread weeks ago but my fat finger on the screen of my smartphone occasionally dumps me on to page 1 of that thread.

Some of my most enjoyable WiF gaming was in the early 90s when each side had a dedicated strategy discussion on the mainframe computer system we all used at University. It was password protected though, much simpler. Sometimes I thought this is one way Harry intended the game to be played - the major action of the war on board the USS Augusta, at Casablanca, Yalta, etc. Much more so than the tactical nuts and bolts of which bomber should ground strike which hex.

Not so smart phone then. [;)]

You might very well be right. [:)]

J/A 40 Axis 1

No DoW or alignments.

Germany and Japan Land. Italy, Naval.

Italians fly a Nav to Biscay 1-box and a Ftr to West Med 2-box.

Italian subs sail to Biscay 1-box and St. Vincent 2-box. 4 CA's sail to East Med. I decline the intercept on the Allies behalf and the CA's stay in the 3-box.

3 areas available for naval combat.
