Northern China post movement.

Elsewhere, the Mongol CAV reaches Ulan-Ude.

The French rearrange some deck chairs.

Nothing else happens and the weather looks mostly similar.

Ouch, the sinking of the British TRS with the HQ must have hurt.

Back to lurker mode, thanks for the AAR.

Impulse #5 (Axis)

No strategic bombing.

Japan ground strikes Changsha with one 2-strength NAV2.

Germany send 3 bombers against the French defenders in Brussels.

France can intercept the ground strike with their FTR2. Germany can counter-intercept with 3 FTR2, and 1 FTR3.

Will France intercept?

In not, then will France use their AA against the raid?

No thanks.

The German air force did their part...

The Japanese ground strike is a partial success.

Japan attacks Changsha. One FTR2 provides 1 point in ground support. Final odds 7:1 +1.

Germany makes two land attacks. The first against Poznan is automatic.

Then Germany assaults Brussels. von Bock provides HQ support. No German ground support. The odds is 36:12. One German AA is included in the attack. Will France provide any defensive ground support? Germany can counter-intercept with 3 FTR2 and one FTR3.

No thanks.

von Bock fails to give HQ support. (9 rolled)

Final odds.
