Italy will not initiate in CSV.

Allied 9, Axis 1.

Do you go with naval air combat, all points to increase damage to get 2D A?

Yes, please.

Sub is only aborted, sails to Alexandria.

Impulse over to USSR.

42 MJ i3 Allies (cont):

SU moves a few units around Gomel and Smolensk. China does not much as nothing can really be done.

Rebase
CW LND3 in Kuwait to Basra
FTR2 in Oman east toward India
SU moves 3 FTRs around near Smolensk

Reorg
AMPH reorg 2 CPs in UK.

May/Jun '42
Impulse #4 (Axis)

Japan declare war on CW, and USA.

Edit: The US entry rolls were a 3 (US), and a 4 (CW), and 8 US entry chits were drawn. Several US entry markers were moved to the tension pool due to US entry options being selected automatically. (Used the internal MWIF die roller for these rolls)

Will USA call out their reserves? And, of so, where will the MAR, and the MOT, be placed?

Yes please. MAR San Diego, MOT Norfolk.

Can not place the MOT in Norfolk due to stacking. Placed it in New York. Can always go back and change it if need be.

May/Jun '42
Impulse #4 (Axis)

Japan occupies Madagascar. US entry roll was a 4 and 2 US entry chits were added.

Italy initiates combat in the North Sea. Italy reinforce the 2-box with 2 NAV3. CW has a whole bunch of air units that can reinforce the North Sea (see picture). Will CW reinforce the sea area?

CW fly both Hurricanes, 7 factor Spitfire and LND3 Whitley to box 1.

I am feeling a bit weary so I will continue this tomorrow. [:(]

Both sides find in the North Sea. (Axis 4, Allies 2) Allies has one surprise point. Axis decline to make it an air combat. How will Allies proceed?

Naval air sounds like fun.

LND as front bomber.

7 factor fighter to front, followed by 6 factor. CAN fighter as last fighter.

Each side clears one bomber, and then the Italians decide to abort the air combat. Thus clearing the remaining British naval bomber.

The German SUB is damaged, and aborted.

Axis remain for a second round. Will Allies remain as well?

Axis will bring no more aircraft to a possible second round of searches. Will Allies reinforce the sea area if the searches continues?

Allies stay, no more planes thank you.
