Call CW sissy but they will leave the North Sea after combat :)
Where are Home Fleet? The CW battleships?

Abort undamaged transporter. All aborted ships goes to south west UK major port.

The undamaged transporter does indeed abort (1 rolled), closely followed by the convoy. Final abort? After which, do the CW wish to stay around and continue the party?

As far as I can tell, Gibraltar, Alex and the Far East.

Abort all ships.

Battleships are in Gibraltar and Egypt. Minor mistake :)

All ships will be summarily aborted. Allied return gunfire sends the Blucher back to port.

The Allied ships will retire in good order to a SW port. Where do you want the Spitfire to land?

The Spitfire heads to Denmark, while the navy goes to Portsmouth.

No strategic or carpet bombing.

The Germans rail an Inf from Poznan to Cernauti.

The line is adjusted in Romania. The two Divs in Denmark consolidate to try and hold Copenhagen. A shuffle at Lodz brings another unit into the combat.

Only 1 combat, at Lodz. Von Leeb takes personal charge of the assault.

The defenders don't put up much resistance and Lodz falls to the Wermarcht.

Two Ftr's and a Bomber move towards Kiel. Von Rundstedt reorganises an Inf and a Mech.

On a 2, the turn ends.

Okay, I'll catch up with you later.

In the meantime, a partisan appears in Malaya and takes up residence in Singapore.

I've found I can't save after I have done my neutrality-pact markers. Where would you like yours to go? Offence or defence?

Defense please.

Maybe next time I need to do that if you put yours to offence. Offence chits are show to enemy?

No. Only defensive chits are shown.

Some turn...

What did I do right:
-3 units in Denmark should be pain in the ass
-5 strat bombing with result 6 PP lost (OK, dice did that, no me)

What went wrong:
-CW did not fly Polish planes away during 1st impulse, so USSR did not take East Poland during 2nd Allied impulse. Result: Germany has all Poland.
-USSR did not have East Poland and claimed Bessarabia in bad weather. Result: turn ended next impulse and USSR achieved 1 hex with a cost of 2 USE chits. Maybe I do something differently next time... Looks like a fun Barbarossa... EDIT: Also being aware about rules before attacking Rumania is important.

What should I do now:
Something more crazy and more stupid, so no one will remember this turn!

On the other hand this is now more interesting that ordinary history based game :)

Dear corporal in Berlin,

I thought we were friends. I thought we had a secret deal about land areas. I feel like betrayed and used.

Some of my generals are warning me that you might attack against me. I was thinking you wouldn't do that, would you?

There is a saying: Shame on me if you fool me once, but shame you if you fool me twi... Or how did it go? Anyway, I don't trust you anymore. Don't count me as your friend anymore. I sent you an invitation to my birthday party, but you invitation is now cancelled! How do you feel now? Maybe you now can understand how I feel!

Regards
Joe

US entry:

US choose "Chinese build aircraft" rolling 7 for no effect.

In Berlin, word about the expected production figures has come to the attention of the Beloved Corporal. He greets the news in his usual calm, philosophical manner.
