Please review US Production, all AA in pool cost 5 BP making the total 31 not 30
Should this be AT cost 4 BP or something else adjusted?

I am sorry about my mistake not to specify what BB should be built. The BB (2nd) should be a 4 BP BB. Take BB South Dakota and there should be 5 BPs over for the AA:

We have tried to advance the file but seem to encounter an oil issue for Axis.

With the file received at Breakdown GER has 9 Oil Saved on Map and is saving 4. When we advance to Reinforcements GER is showing 11 Saved Oil, so missing 2.

JP seems to gain 1 extra during the same stages.

We will post our instructions below and see how Orm goes with a walk thru .....

GER Reinforcements
