I declined air support for you here as even if you get thru the intercept, I have an AA gun which will prevent your single factor from getting thru.

[NatRapsEno]

Two attacks. Pretty obvious assault for both but we can always go back if you would have chosen differently. This holds true for all decisions made by me on your behalf and will not be restated going forward for brevity.

Turn ends on a roll of two. (two or less to end)

[Orm]

No partisans. Garrison was tested in India.

MWIF wanted a roll for partisans in Persia even tough USSR had enough forces there (bug).

[Orm]

USSR placed their pact marker on offence, and moved their old marker to offence.

Germany placed both their markers on offence (this can be changed if so desired).
