The two damaged American subs retreat to Aparri in the Phillipines

USSR finds 1-3 in Baltic. I flew the HS 123 to 0 box for you. 2 German CP aborted. Stay for Round II?

Russians decided to abort their sub ( in case winter weather sets in ).

Axis may search Arabian Sea. Allies moved a CP into it.
Will be a pause here for a while.

No search in Arabian Sea.

Turn ends. Axis SAS sent.

Allied RTB sent.

Losses for the turn. The high CP losses for Japan was an annoying setback as the Japanese production, and oil reserves, suffer by it.

Axis RTB sent.

Should I do the Allies oil usage?

Yes, that's fine. Reorganize all for both Commonwealth and USA. Use USA oil for Free France and reorganize all of them as well. All for any USSR forces as well. You should be able to save an oil from Baku via the CP in Caspian Sea into the USSR interior somewhere safe for the time being. Push one oil to production at Omsk.

No breakdowns. Production numbers should be fine as is for Commonwealth and USA. I should not need the file until Allied builds.

The Allied builds have not been posted to the AAR for some time, and I am curious what they have been. Has Russia built anything but MIL? Fun fact: The Axis has killed over 100% of the total Russian MIL

USSR has built MIL, and GARR. Don not recall that there been anything else since the DOW. This turn not included as it has not yet been done.

Picture of the upcoming reinforcements before this turns production.

Edit: And before conquest.

I got one traded BP to go to Archangelsk, but did not manage one to go to Murmansk. Should we add 1 BP to USSR for Murmansk?

Yea, I saved a BP in USSR this turn and will add one to it during this turn to make up for the one that should have gone to Murmansk.

Axis Reinforcements sent. Trade instructions to follow shortly.

Delete the trade from Commonwealth to China and Commonwealth to USSR. Increase the trade from Free France to Commonwealth to 3 resources. Delete the trade from USA to Commonwealth. Decrease the trade from USA to USSR to just 1 BP. Create a new trade from USA to Free France of 1 BP.
