It was, until I forgot it is there [;)] I would have done turn end last night or this morning if I had remembered...

Nov/Dec 1939
Impulse: 13 (Allied)

Land Movement:
China

The Chinese, realise somewhat belatedly that they are about to lose Central China, turn tail and run....well sort of crawl at a snail's pace really, but you get the drift.

Rebase: None

Reorganisation: None


End of Turn: Turn ends on less than 8 (a 3 is thrown and the turn ends).

Well, I'm trying to do everything on porpoise, although mostly it's pretty random, reactive and porpoiseless. Does that make me the Pauper?

German markers to offense.

German EoT instructions

One resource in Sweden is idle, send it to any factory.
All oil is saved. Save 2 oil points to Berlin, 2 oil points to Vienna and 1 oil to Prague.

Stay at sea and RTB
Sub to Kiel

Oil use
Germany reorg all except BB Schlesien, BB Gneisenau, CA Deutchland and 1 CP for 3,45 oil using 2 saved oil and oil going to Vienna.

Production 15
Synth Oil
NAV3
ATR3
Pilot

Annual additions
Scrap Do 17M and 2x Ju86G
"No" to Gneisenau question

Pilot from Do17Z in Kiel was supposed to be removed last time. Should we continue as the situation is or play like it was removed last time? If we play like it was removed, I place pilot to Bf109 to protect some place. In that case we need to work around things or Allies can't attack there this turn. Easiest way is to continue like this and then pilot can stay in bomber. Both are totally fine for me.

Germany sends 3 res (1 oil) to Italy.

Italian and Japanese end of turn:

This may need to be modified due to US entry options or partisans.

Preliminary planning:
Italy save both oil in Milan (Clearing old, obsolete. orders might be needed to be able to save the oil). Italy has 2 BPs for production.

Japan save two oil from NEI in Canton. All other resources (Except the isolated resource in China), and oil, go to production for 11 BPs. (Had some trouble changing orders here before I cleared the oil from USA)

The CA in the 4-box of the Italian Coast remain at sea along with all CPs.

The Italian SUBs, NAV2, and CA, return to La Spezia.

Oil reorganisation:
Japan reorganizes all units for one oil (0.9).
Italy reorganize 4 units for no oil (0.45). The LND3, NAV2, CP, and the 4 range (and 4 movement points) SUB is reorganized.

Break down the Italian MTN into two divisions

Production:

Italy (2):
Pilot

Japan (11):
INF
2 x MIL
CAV
Save 1 BP in Tokyo

Japan destroy the factories in Sian, and Changsha.

Reinforcements:

Italy:
NAV2 (Gabbiano) -> Genoa

Japan:
INF -> Fukuoka

Remove CVP1 (B5N1) in Yokohama

No partisans.

US puts a marker in the JAP pool.

US declares an embargo on strategic materials to Japan. The Japanese decide to let it pass (7 rolled). However, when the US announces ships along it's East Coast will be protected by the US Navy and hostile actions will be fired upon, the Germans and Italians fly into a rage (2 rolled, chit to tension pool). With the world's diplomatic corps distracted by this latest storm in a tea cup, the Chinese announcement of an aircraft building programme passes by unnoticed (8 rolled).

China 3 BP

CW spends one of it's saved oils in the UK for production to give 8 BP's. The CP losses at the end of the turn bite deeply.

US 10 BP's

Continue tomorrow.

CW Stay at Sea/RTB
CV and BB's in North Sea stay to 3-box. CA in Faeroes stays. Various escorts in Biscay, St Vincent and North Atlantic stay. In Italian Coast, sub in 3-box stays. Other returns to Malta. TRANS and 2 CAQ in Biscay return to Liverpool. CVL from East Med to Gib. Queens (plus Sydney MIL) from Australian Coast to Singapore.

RTB
French fleet in Eastern Med to Beirut
Sub to Marseilles

Oil
France reorganises all except Tourville for no oil expenditure

Production
China - 1 x INF
France - 2 x MIL, 1 x PIL
Soviet Union - 1 x INF, 1 x GARR, 1 x PIL, 1 x Saved in Moscow

Reinforcement
France - Potez (Paris) Hawk (Rouen) TRS (Bordeaux)
Soviet Union - INF and INF DIV (Odessa)
China - INF (Lanchow)

Oil use
Germany reorg all except BB Schlesien, BB Gneisenau, CA Deutchland and 1 CP for 3,45 oil using 2 saved oil and oil going to Vienna.

I was able to get down to the sub but once all the 3 oil points were expended, no more reorgs were allowed. I'll proceed on the basis this is okay but have saved the file in case you want to go back and do something different.

CW reorganise all (1.8) for 2 oils.

US reorgs TRANS and LND for no oil.

CW builds 2 INF and pilot.

US builds TRANS x3, pilot and TERR.

Several conquests, Belgium govt relocates to the Congo.

China refuses to surrender.

Pilot from Do17Z in Kiel was supposed to be removed last time. Should we continue as the situation is or play like it was removed last time? If we play like it was removed, I place pilot to Bf109 to protect some place. In that case we need to work around things or Allies can't attack there this turn.

Easiest to keep pilot in bomber.

CW scraps Anson, Battle and Blenheim I. Pilot to Hurricane, placed in Bristol. INF to Cape town.

CW places TERR in Manilla and CV to San Diego.

Initiative: Axis 1, Allies 4. Do the Axis want a re-roll?

This is how it looks on my computer, 4 oils can be used for reorg.

Is this wrong? If this is right, is too much if you go back or can you reorg few ships editing file?

Initiative: Axis 1, Allies 4. Do the Axis want a re-roll?

We will talk about it. In private [;)]

I have the oil resource at 51,36 showing as trade sent to Italy.

No problem then.
