Thank you. I'll pick assault anyway since the odds is to close to 6:1 for comfort.

The defences of Antwerp are swept aside by the German combined arms assault.

At Metz, Murphy's Law continues to hold sway. Which unit do the Allies destroy?

France takes the INF as a loss.

Germany rebases He-112 from the coast to Liege.

Rundstedt reorganises 4 INF and a Bf-109.

Back to the Allies.

No DoW

China, CW and France land, others combined.

Naval moves
US sends CPs to South China Sea and Bay of Bengal. Sub heads west.

Strategic Bombing
CW ATR fly over Hamburg using detour to avoid fighters.

CW rail MIL in India to Calcutta and TERR to oil dields in NEI.

USSR rail 1st Cavalry Division from Persia to Novgorod.


Land moves
In China both Nationalist and Communist work together to create defensive line.

CW
Indian INF moves east in India.

In France CW and France work together to create defensive line, both advance to Belgium.


Air Rebase:

USSR
Strongest LND3 rebase from Persia to Stalino.
FTR2 rebase from Leningrad to hex 38, 51.

France
FTR2 rebase to hex 55, 31

CW
Belgian FTR to neutral country in Africa.


Back to the Axis in poor weather.

France after rebase.

China at the start of the Axis impulse.

M/A 40 Axis 7

No DoW or alignments.

Germany and Japan land. Italy combined. Germany puts an O-chit on Von Bock

Nothing happens until ground-strikes.

The Japanese send a LND and NAV to ground-strike the Nationalist units in the mountains east of Changsha. The Germans strap bombs to their Bf-110's and send them, togther with a Gruppe of Ju-88's to ground strike British units west of Brussels. Bf-109's provide close escort. He-112's are on standbye.

Do the Allies wish to call upon the Fleet Air Arm to intercept?

Yes, the Gladiator intercept.

With a large number of aircraft to engage, the FAA pilots are forced to make some hard choices. Which bombers will they ignore and clear through?

This is trivial. Front bomber, thank you [:)]

Sorry, I could see pro's and cons for either choice and therefore didn't like to assume my choice would match yours. Anyway...

The manoeuvrable biplanes prove difficult to get a bead on but in defending themselves against superior fighters are unable to make an impact on the German bombers.

With heavy rain obscuring the targets, the Germans are satisfied with the results.

In China, the Japanese are also satisfied with the results.

The Germans occupy Brussels and move units in preparation for the next attack.

The Japanese also move up.

Do the Chinese want to request HQ support from Chiang? Odds are 38:12, 3:1.

No, thank you. No HQ support from Chiang.

Similar question for the CW. Do they want HQ support from Gort? Current odds 74:13, 4:1.
