Vive Les Francais, once again. The French navy has done its best for the Allied cause in the Baltic and East Med.

Looks like the weather has reverted to my usual type when playing the Axis!

Unless the weather changes for the better, I'm going to use these next impulses to bring more units across from Poland. I'll taker a combined this impulse for a go at the Transports in the North Sea (it'll be a long shot) and to send out the subs. After that, probably land impulses.
If it does revert to only rain or by some miracle goes fine, I'll see about the DoW on Belgium.
Are the Japanese or Italians planning on shifting any boats around?

AllenK old chap, are you able to zip Nordic 2 and send over please? You didn't zip it and that is sufficient to throw me completely. I have no idea how to get it from my e-mail to the folder thingy, but if its zipped then I do..... Sorry and thanks!

Nothing for the Italians, but the Japanese will do a combined and boaty mcboat face (aka Kako) will transport the 3-2 ART to the China Sea 0-box. Nothing else until land moves.
When I look at the position of the Japanese/Chinese in 1 and 2 I could cry. Both Japanese went for the same attack - strong in the north - but the combination of turn length, weather (and of course that initial rubbish land throw) for our Japanese means that they have a real struggle on their hands to hurt the Chinese [:(] At least you were making progress with Germany until......[:(] It's a bloody good job we're British!! [:D]

The jolly old file should be rattling down the Gmail tubes to you at this very moment.

No thanks, I've done my bits. No rebases or reorganisations.

AllenK its so long since I done this as the Allied player - what do you want to do re US Entry?
Presumably you don't post the die rolls to the Axis?

I'm happy with your choice.
No, I don't post them to the opposition.
Once you get to Prelim Production, do you want to send the file to me and I'll work through the rest of the End of Turn stuff when I get everyone's instructions. From experience, it's the CW player who has most to do with the dreaded convoys.

The captain of the IJNS Kako regretfully informs his Divine Emperor Warspite1ito the 105mm guns are too big to fit on his ship. Does his Divine Grace wish to move something else instead?

Why dat? Has it moved already? If so then any old cruiser will do please?
RE: TOP SECRET: AllenK and warspite1 ONLY!!!!

It's not a matter of having moved, the guns don't fit on any cruiser (or any other warship). It's only non-motorised infantry class divisions that can load onto SCS.

Well that is jolly inconvenient of the guns. I guess there is no naval move then..... [8|]

Well, with a potent combination of turn length, weather and our own blunders, we should be comfortably lulling our opponents into a sense of security by now [8|].
