Turn: Jan/Feb 1942
Impulse: 1

The Luftwaffe decide to try and do something about the Strategic Bombing campaign being waged by Bomber Command.

Turn: Jan/Feb 1942
Impulse: 1

In the rubbish weather the Germans are really struggling to make any headway - the supply situation being a particular problem.... Forgetting to move Manstein doesn't help either...

Meanwhile the Japanese try the usual ground strike and get the usual result [8|]

I just don't know how to get the China campaign kick-started [&:]

Turn: Jan/Feb 1942

With part of the Italian air force grounded, the RAF move a Mosquito and a Beaufort into the Italian Coast.

The Commonwealth try and initiate combat in the sea zone, but neither side find the other...

Meanwhile the Soviets begin to form a line once more in the south. Its going to be a long war for the Germans...

I think that it rather looks like it will be a short war for the Germans. [;)]

Italy "lost" her oil for some reason last turn which didn't help the Axis either. As soon as the Amphibs are available, I think Sicily and/or Sardinia are toast - that will give airbases to launch an invasion of the mainland.

Germany have not hit the Soviets anywhere near hard enough and the latter are getting more reinforcements each turn.

Japan - well what can I say!! Their aircraft are rubbish - I cannot ground strike anything and with the low odds, that means I cannot afford to attack.

Oh well, its been invaluable experience in getting back into the game. I will plough on and see where it takes me.

There is not much the Germans can do but re-group and await better weather. When that arrives its time to start taking some chances...

Turn: Jan/Feb 1942

The Allies pass with all to try and end the turn but it fails...

Turn: Jan/Feb 1942
Impulse: 11

Back to the Axis and the Blizzard conditions mean no air strikes are possible...

The turn eventually ends but with little achieved by the Axis.

Another Partisan arrives in India. The Indians have not got rid of the first two!!

US Gear up Production and the war moves closer - can't wait to get those fleets moving!!

All my German oil seems to have disappeared and the oil being saved has turned to idle...[&:] I try and save three oil this turn but do not know if I will be able to organise units this turn [&:]

Turn: Jan/Feb 1942
Impulse: End of Turn

Similar problem with the CW - no oil.. I have tried saving three but can only save two - no idea why the 3rd one won't take.

I am going to try and lend oil to Italy once more and see what happens..

Turn: Mar/Apr 1942

Axis win the initiative and the weather is..well somewhat inclement for the time of year...

Turn: Mar/Apr 1942

The Luftwaffe try three ground strike attacks on two hexes. The qualitative superiority of the Luftwaffe means that these will not be contested.
