Place pilots for Germany in the BF 109 and the He 100. Place the 109 in Cologne and and the 100 in Karlsruhe. Place the 8-5 mech corps in Frankfurt.

Put pilot in the Sparviero naval bomber for Italy and place it in Palermo. Place the BB in La Spezia.

Place pilot in D3A2 land nav for Japan. Place in Sasebo. Place the infantry corps and division in Tokyo as well as the CP.

If Axis win the initiative the Axis will move first but no reroll.

If I omitted any instructions or there is a question make the best decision for me and move on. Italy is owed 2 BP which I will collect now that I have a saved BP.
