May/Jun '40
Impulse #5 (Axis)

No strategic bombing. No Ground Strikes.

Rail Moves:

Japan:
MIL Haichow->Harbin

Italy:
GARR (62,34) -> Calais

Germany:
INF (Krakow) -> La Spezia

Land Moves:

Germany:
3rd Infantry Division is sent to Venice for some R&R.
Three Korps move towards the Rotterdam area to stop the British offensive.
Antwerp is liberated from the British invaders.
Field Marshal Karl Rudolf Gerd von Rundstedt orders all his panzers to concentrate on the French forces guarding the east approach to Paris.
Remaining German forces on the west front tries to advance west but are soon stopped by French units. Traffic chaos ensues when so many units cross path with each other.

Italy:
5-3 MIL 74, 30 -> 74, 28
HQI 73, 30 -> 74, 29

Japan:
MEC 74,170->74,138(2 hex W)
INF 76,140->75-138(N W)
INF Kaifeng->76,140(3 hex w)

Disembark
Germany:
7-4 INF West Med -> Bone

Generalmajor Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel instructs his officers in the 7th Panzer Division before the final drive towards paris.

Impulse #5 (Axis)

Germany makes two land attacks:
1) vs Rouen. Current odds are 33:4. Two bombers fly with 7 points in ground support. Since France can not intercept they will clear and make the odds 40:3. Or 10:1. France can use their LND3 to try and reduce the odds to 40:7. Or 5:1. Germany has one 4 strength FTR3 available to intercept the French bomber.
2) vs hex 55,30 - just east of Paris. No HQ support. No ground support. Current odds are 55:9 or 6:1 blitz. +3 die roll modifier is expected due to armour bonus. France has one ART that can provide 2 points in defensive ground support. The French bomber can also fly here with their 3 points in support. The same German FTR3 can also intercept here. Will France provide any defensive support?

Two task forces put to sea in the Eastern Mediterranean

No aircraft for the CW. The Germans (1) and Italians (2) have the aircraft (shown on map) that can fly. What do they want to do?

The Allied submarines stay

Do the Axis (one fighter in the 0-box and 2 cruisers in the 2 box) wish to stay?

Naval Search:

Allies - 5
Axis - 3

No combat

Strategic Bombing: None
Ground Strike: None

Rail Movement: None
Land Movement:
China

The Chinese continue to pull back

USSR

The Chinese Communists take a resource hex in the north and generally re-organise.

France

What's left of the French reorganise

Commonwealth

The CW move forward in Egypt

Land Combat:
Commonwealth

The CW attack the Italians in Bardia at 3:1 (inc shore bombardment). There seems to be a +1 but I don't know why. Maybe its the armour - but then the Italians have the choice????

What do the Italians want to do?

I don´t know about the +1. Italians choose tables since equal ARM and equal MECH due to italian A-A unit I think.
Italians go with assault thank you.

Throw is a 5. The ART is lost and all disorganised. I assume the Italians lose the Libyan?
