No worries, 'tis done. One pilot belatedly fished out of the drink.

Searches: Axis 9, Allies 5. No combat.

Do the US wish to initiate in South China Sea?

Do the US wish to initiate in South China Sea?

Indeed.

One pilot belatedly fished out of the drink.

Thank you. [:)]

4 BPs remaining then.

Does the Whitley at Singapore wish to fly?

No, thank you.

Searches: Allied 2, Axis 3. Both sides find each other. Japs go for naval air.

I forgot to manually input the 9 for the first abort, which is why it still shows as 8. Makes no difference. I presume as I've already rolled the second A as a 2 you would want that on the other sub?

Yes. Abort to Singapore if that is possible.

Edit: The US submarine dive for safety for the second round.

Round 2

Searches: Allied 6, Axis 2.

The remaining sub limps back to port.

Wouldn't the Japanese get zero surprise in the South China Sea, allowing US to spend 4 to pick SUB combat?

Ah, that's what comes of making assumptions.

Will need to redo things again.

It's not the DoW surprise impulse.

Why? Wasn't that last impulse?

EDIT: Your turn to beat me to the punch [:)]

Okay, at the last minute, the US sub skipper gets a premonition of approaching trouble and heads for the deep. Aborted sub does go back to Singapore.

I have to call it quits for the night but I'll send the file over to Mayhemizer for German moves.

Doh! Already the Axis impulse. Your war sped up on me.

The turn goes faster when one side initiates many naval searches, and neither side can find each other.

Folks, I'm around until 9pm if anyone is available for some hot war action! [:D]

Waiting for AllenK. Not sure if action is very hot this impulse anymore [:(]

No strategic bombing. Japanese artillery tries a ground strike in Manchuria.

Soviet positions are bracketed in what appeared to be a successful strike but as the dust settled and troops emerged from fox holes, the damage was remarkably light. So close ...

German rail moves:
MIL from NW Spain Ferrol to southern Spain Cadiz. Inf div from Gibraltar to Warsaw and Mtn div from Königsberg to Gibraltar.

Japan rails Garr from Tsingtao to Mukden and Mil from Haichow to Tsingtao.
