No strategic bombing. No ground strikes.

The Odessa militia rail to Khabarovsk. There they refuse to take action against the Japanese enemy because they signed up to to fight Germans. A gentle reminder that they could always stay here, in Gulag, if they prefer, made them enthusiastic about fighting the Japanese.

Chinese forces liberate Canton and force the Japanese air force there to rebase. Where do you want the fighters?

I am not sure I understand where you want the 5 quality fighter. How about placing it on Hainan or Formosa for now? Should be easy to rebase it where you need it next turn?

Edit: To the north east it can reach as far as the hex between Hangchow and Shanghai.

83,150? Will it reach there?

No. That is one hex to far.

Okay the hex on the coast before hand please?

China liberate Nanning. The Communists also liberete Tientsin, again. French mountain troops advance into the Italian Alps.

France attack Turin.

The Chinese Communits attack Peking.

USSR attack Helsinki and make two additional attacks in Manchuria.

Germany can provide defensive shore bombardment to assist the belegiered defenders in Helsinki. How many of the eight points available will Germany use for defensive shore bombardment.

You guys have a good fight going on.

On behalf of every Finnish citizen: Germany please, use all 8 points. If you help us now, we won't make peace with USSR at any point and we will stand next to you until the end! (Unless peace with USSR benefits us more than fighting when Axis are losing...)

The maximum please.

Will Italy provide defensive HQ support?

No thank-you

Zhukov and Timoshenko attempt to provide HQ support.

USSR fly two bombers in support of the attack on Helsinki. And have one fighter on standby for counter interception.

Germany can fly a bomber on extended range and has the Finnish fighter available. Will you use them?

Apparently not. [:D] That Ju-88 was indeed used. I am sorry about that. [:(]

The Ju-88 shown can be flown is support of the Italian defenders.

If you decide on the Finnish fighter now I will post a question on the Italian ground support soon.

The Finnish fighter will fly

As will anything that moves in Italy - The Italian bomber in front.

Then both the Italian and the German bomber will aid the Italian defenders. The French forces gets aid of a French bomber and a fighter-bomber and a French fighter will attempt to abort the Axis air support.

Now over to China. Will Japan fly ground support to help the Peking defenders?

Yeah why not?

Yeah why not?

Land in the same hex or another?

Will you abort the bomber or the fighter?
