Allies win the initiative and will move first.

Navals for everyone except USSR who does a land action.

Two sub searches for USA.
Start in Sea of Japan. Support?

NAV2 (Kate) to 0-box Sea of Japan

FTR2 (Nate with 0 tactical bombing) + NAV2 (Val) to 0-box China Sea
NAV3 (Nell) to 3-box China Sea

Subs dive in both zones.

The USSR sets up strongpoint defenses throughout the front. Even in the southern industrial region.

The Russians fall back along the entire front and leave only token resistance in some areas.
In the North, the Russians hope to use a series of strongpoint defenses to slow the German advance while hopefully minimizing losses.

The British prepare for a Spring offensive against Petsamo.
The Nigerians on amphibious training exercises in the North Sea.

The British land forces in Morocco with more loaded on amphibious units in Cape St. Vincent.
The Royal Navy try to get supplies to the beleaguered British forces in Burma.

The Americans try and hold the Marshall Islands and stem the Japanese advances to the East in the Pacific.

Regarding the requests made offline, I shall take them one at a time.

- I will edit the Territorial to Palembang when I get the file back.
- I distinctly remember trying to move the oil from Adelaide to Melbourne. It seemed like it worked at the time. I've never moved a saved oil to another city so perhaps I don't know exactly how to do it. If you guys know how then next EOT you can take care of moving it. The Allies will not invade Adelaide in the near future so I don't think its a problem at the moment.
- I apologize for the JU88 not being on the map with a pilot, my mistake. It's too late to go back now so I suggest that you treat it as if it were on the map. I know it's not ideal, but just pretend that it is and move it, bomb with it, whatever you intend to do with. Obviously just save an air mission if needed for whatever it does and record where it is on the map at the end of your impulse so I know where it's supposed to be. If you want to ground strike with it, just announce it and roll it. I will disorganize any units that it hit. Same for strategic bombing. If used in ground support we can adjust the roll accordingly to whatever impact it has until we can get it on the map during next EOT, then we can edit it where it should start next turn.
