Allied turn 10 - another Uboat damaged while Bombers hit French factories. Russian strongholds in Smolensk, Rostov and Siberia reinforced.
Most noteworthy is that despite the US WR being close to DOW Japan relies on 9 trannies to supply the empire. Does not seem like Japan wants to start a fight with the US? If not we will [:D]

Allied turn 11 (Winter 1942) - Due to unfavourable odds Red Army does not counterattack but retreats in order. China launches a massed attack and succeeds in causing some damage. Wallies prepare countermeasures in case Japan attacks.

Allied turn 12 (Spring 1942) - Russian Army evades battle except for some aerial engagements and reinforces in Siberia. Wallies come up short in Spain. At least they showed their flag [:(]

Allied turn 13 (Summer 1942) - Wallied invasion misfortune in Portugal amounts to incompetence - Next try in Switzerland maybe... Red Army takes positions next to Axis Army in Stalingrad, no place else to retreat to. US war machine slowly gets into gear, a batch of P-39 dispatched to DEI.

Allied turn 14 (Fall 1942) - Russia fights back in Siberia, and further reinforces. It looks like it is going to be a battle with 120+ units...
Wallies use lack of defense in Portugal to finally land. Japanese Carrier Force was completely destroyed, with 4 CV sunk or damaged as shown and the last carrier sunk by BB gunfire thereafter.

Axis Turn 16.
Huge battle in Astrakhan, involving 120+ units of both sides. Looks like a tactical victory for the Wehrmarch as ground is taken, but heavy losses.
Japan build air to defend vs US carrier raids.

Allied turn 16 (Spring 1943) - Russia licks its wounds and puts up a last stand in the Southern Ural area. Can the Wallies rush in to the rescue in time? Some Axis shipping sunk and aircraft destroyed but little ground gained. Axis subs successfully evaded even hitting one DD...

Allied turn 18 (Fall 1943) - Looks like a stand-off near the Ural factories, while first attempts to hurt the Axis in China, off Japan and in Spain, although only partially successful, should be enough to divert some forces from Russia... Greece was reinforced while Allied aircraft raided successfully the Baltic Sea, Japanes Trannie pool down to 5 or 6. U.S. factories begin to churn out fighters, tanks and everything else in increasing numbers.

Allied turn 19 (Winter 1944) - a few more attacks on Japan while Europe does not see much fighting except for a daring ride into the Baltic by a British BB. Even more reinforcements arrive in Portugal.
