Italian ftr initiates combat. If there is a combat, German ftr is front ftr and Erone front bomber.

Does the 5 point C.200 wish to fly to the 0-box?

No thank you.

Searches: Axis 9, Allies 2. Allies decide to include the Nav in the 3-box only. Allies use 8 surprise points to shift the air combat odds to +6/-2, leaving 2 in reserve in case the bomber gets through.

On an 8, the Nav is aborted. Where do you want it to land?

Genoa thanks. Axis stay.

The Nav doesn't head off without a fight. A 16 sees the Allied F4F sent back to the dug-out.

Round 2. Searches Axis 5, Allied 9. No combat.

USSR rails an Inf from east to Urals.

US moves a couple of units to port hexes on the West Coast. The Nationalists gang up around Canton. CW moves 2 Inf towards the Burmese border. Communists continue into Manchuria. Soviets pull a couple of OOS units back towards Baku, disorganising them. In the Urals they move a couple of units out of cities to prepare for reinforcements.

CW Inf Div debarks from Red Sea to Eritrea.

No land combat.

CW loads 2 CVP onto a CV at Liverpool. US tries to rebase a C-47 to Greenland and runs into a problem. Despite the Occupy Greenland and Iceland Entry Option having been chosen, they are still showing as neutral. This is a bit of a game killer as it prevents the rebasing of US aircraft to the UK. They would all have to be transported by sea or the countries conquered.

Soviets rebase a Lnd from the south to the Urals.

No reorgs.

On a 2, the turn continues (just).

N/D 1941 Axis 9

No DoW

Germany land, Italy and Japan combined

Japan sends CP to Central Pacific (Midway is in supply) and CL to Cape Naturaliste box 2.

Axis initiates combat in following sea areas.

Hawaiian Islands: Axis 10, Allies 3.

TORA, TORA, TO... Bandits 6 o'clock!!!!

How do you want to play this? If Allies fight, do all CVP's fly as fighters? Always highest air to air combat value as front fighter?

Go for it. 4 points to increase air combat value. 3 points held in reserve. Line them all up as fighters in descending order of factors. Should be a 5-pointer first.

Would you like to abort fighter or bomber?

The bomber can go home.

Axis decide to abort before any planes are shot down...

I landed the best plane back on CV Hornet. How about 2 other planes, on same CV or different ones?

Same CV, thanks.

West Med: Axis 5, Allies 6. No combat.
Bay of Bengal: Axis 4, Allies 5.

Japan chooses naval air combat and uses both surprise points to increase damage.

Who takes first A?

Edit: Do warships abort after CP is sunk? Do they go to Calcutta?

A on the BB, thanks.

BB dodges A on a 10. Japan places another A to BB and second 10 causes abort. Do lonely CA want to fight more?

Japan stays.

Where do aborted ships go? Is Calcutta good?

Calcutta is good. CA stays.

2nd round: Axis 9, Allies 8. Combat is over.
Cape Naturaliste: Axis 6, Allies 7. No combat.
Mendocino: Axis 7, Allies 5. No combat.

Naval combat is over.

MECH survives again...
