Mayhemizer appears to have gone offline.

On the basis of keeping infantry gearing limits going, I'll choose a MIL and hope it's okay.

I am sorry to say this but it was intended to be three pilots. Would it be to much trouble to change the German builds to one more pilot?

[Orm]

Axis prefer to go first.

That was intentention, but I can live with this.

Revised production and changes to MIL/TERR reinforcements

Germany produces 3 pilots and no MIL

Japanese TERR to Manchuria.

French MIL to Metz.

Over to the Axis for the first impulse.

First a look at the weather they will be contending with.

[Orm]

No declarations of war.

Land: Germany, Japan
Combined: Italy

No Port Strikes. No naval air.

One Italian cruiser, loaded with one infantry division, leaves Triest. Will the Allied submarines patrolling the Italian Coast attempt to intercept the submarine?

[Orm]

Will Frace, or CW, intercept the loaded CA?

[warspite1]

Yes. The French unit tries to intercept please.

[Orm]

The interception attempt fails with a die roll of three.

[Orm]

The cruiser stay in the 4-box of the Italian Coast.

Italy declines to initiate any naval combats.

Will the Allies initiate combat in the Italian Coast?

[warspite1]

No thank-you

[Orm]

No strategic bombing. No Ground Strikes.

Germany rails three Korps from Poland to the West front.

Japanese forces advance on all fronts in China.

No reaction from USA when Japan occupies the cities Tungkwan, Ichang, and Changsha.

Over to Generalfeldmarschall Mayhemizer for the remainder of the impulse.

Gents,

German Do17 is still in Kiel even if pilot was supposed to be removed. No need to go back again, but there was a thing I wanted to do with that pilot next turn. I tell next turn end what was supposed to happen. We can work this out.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

German troops move west. All of them. Infanrty. Planes. Artillery. Tanks. OK, some units stay in Poland [;)]

The Italian division disembark into Cagliari.

Air Rebase:

Japan:
FTR2 (85, 144) -> Changsha
NAV2 (Sasebo) -> Changsha

Italy:
NAV2 (Genoa) -> La Spezia

Germany:
2 fighters and 2 bombers rebase to west.

HQ reorganization:

Rundstedt is used to reorganize 3 INF railed to west.


Back to the Allies.

Apologies. In trying to sort out the flawed production instructions, I missed the Do-17 one. Since you've raised it, we may as well go back and redo the impulse. I'll send the new file tomorrow.

I don’t think that is something we have to do. I will place pilot to a fighter to protect one target you are not even likely to attack.

N/D 39 Allies 3

No DoW or alignments

France and China land. CW naval, rest combined.

Naval moves

CW sends Queens to Tasman Sea 0-box and loads Sydney MIL. TRANS at Liverpool loads INF and sails to Biscay 3-box. Various CP's and escorts are sent out. CVL Eagle joins French ships in the East Med 2-box.

CW declines combat in Cape St. Vincent but a sub pops up to periscope depth in the Italian Coast. Do the Italians wish to add any air support? NAV up to 2-box, the rest the 1-box.

[Orm]

NAV to the 0-box, thank you.

[AllenK]

Searches: Allies 5, Axis 7. No combat.

US rails INF Div from east to west coast.
