In Tiflis Blitz is also possible, most likely Germany will take city but there are no MOT div to take losses, cheapest unit is ARM div.

Assaults for both, thanks.

Final result 14!

Japan is digging their own grave...

Which CW unit is destroyed?

Destroy the Sydney Mil, thanks.

I kind of wish I had rolled combats in different order. German captures 4 saves oil points.

Germany rebases Stuka and Bf109 to Tiflis and Ju52 to Rumania.

Summer is over.

Back to Allies.

N/D 41 Allied 7

No DoW

CW & US Combined. USSR & China Land. France Pass.

US opens the impulse with a port-attack on Midway. Japs can intercept with a D3A1 from The Marshalls. Does it fly?

Yes please

Surprise rolls: Axis 1 (there's a surprise), Allied 4. How do the Axis wish to spend their points?

Increase own air to air factor

The combat goes well for the US.

AA fire rolls 1, 8, 9, 3, 6, 9, see the bombs reduced by 1.

It doesn't look much ..... but it's enough.

Naval Air

US puts a fighter in West Med 3-box. Nav 4 goes to The Marshalls 4-box.

CW puts 2 CP to Cape Naturaliste. CA Belfast loads Inf Div and sails to Red Sea 3-box.

US sends 6 CP to Biscay. 6 BB's sail to The Marshalls. Do the Axis wish to intercept?

No thank you

The BB's stop in the 2-box.

A CP sails to NZ Coast.

Many sea zones were available for combat. Most were declined, leaving ...

Bering Sea: Searches Allied 7, Axis 10. NE
The Marshalls: Searches Allied 4, Axis 6. The Allies choose the 1-box only (not enough surprise to put the Catalina against fighters). AA is NE. Allies use 6 surprise points to increase damage to D, 2A.

Predictably enough, the Jap CA saves the D result.

Do the Axis wish to fight or flight? The Allies stay for a second round.

Axis abort.

CP and empty CV's to Tokyo.
CV's with planes to that minor port in current sea area with HQ. To same port also as many cruisers as possible. If too many cruisers to fit minor port, others go to Truk.

I really hope turn does not end (10% chance).

I am not sure it's very wise to spread the excellent Japanese cruisers in far and distant seas for the chance to find 1 CP - when the Allies can retaliate with more cruisers and sink your hardly replaceable quality naval assets.

The two CV's with planes and 2 cruisers abort to Kwajalein. CP and empty CV to Tokyo.

Axis can have a go in the West Med if they wish. If so, who to disorganise.
