Over to Orm for the Japanese (note: no other moves for the Germans).

Gents are you okay for me to do a couple of rail moves? As you can see from the attached, Orm gave me instructions to do these - but when I copies onto a word doc, I didn't copy the last line.

Please let me know.

Yes, go ahead.

Thanks [&o] - as you can see from the time the instructions were given - this was an honest mistake.

It's easily done when swapping instructions between players and with 2 games running.

Italy move the Corpo d'armata Celere to La Spezia.

Two Japanese Army groups concentrate on the Shanghai militia and attack it. One naval bomber (D3A2) provide support to the attack.

I thought you were genuinely confused therefore I answered what I thought AllenK meant to write. That the HQI MacArthur was moved eastwards. I put a question mark there to mark that I didn't actually know if this was the case but a guess on my part.

I am sorry that my answer was unclear.
