Good call killing Do17. I think pilot is lost anyway, air combat is over enemy hex.

The Stukas sneak through.

The Axis stay, how about the RAF?

The Axis stay, how about the RAF?

A challenge. We can not resist and pick up the thrown glove. RAF stay until this is settled. One way or the other.

Good call killing Do17. I think pilot is lost anyway, air combat is over enemy hex.

The pilot was saved by changing to a low rolled DX instead of a high rolled. A German pilot as well as a Italian pilot are now saved. That is 4 BPs out of the 8 needed.

And settled it is as both sides fight each other to destruction.

The Stuka's hit their primary target and the Mot Div is a bonus.

Gen Terauchi gets sudden orders to board the trains and get back up north.

That's all for tonight folks.

With many units disorganised, the Japs ad to their number by moving Osaka Mil one hex west.

Spain post German and Italian movement.

No land combats.

Japan rebases a Nav from Shanghai to Yamamoto and a Ftr by 1 hex to NW of Hanoi.

Germany rebases Me-110 and Ju-88 to newly taken hexes west of Seville.

No reorgs.

Back to Allies.

There will be no action this evening. I hope that there will be tomorrow.

Meanwhile I so hope that the next patch will solve the CW supply bug in Egypt. It is such annoying bug and now it truly mess with CW. [:(] So I am glad that I read that several supply bugs have been fixed and that the fixes soon will be released for testing. [:)]
