Germany attacks Lodz. Current odds are 40:8, or 5:1. Edit: The attack has -1 on the die roll.
General Rydz-Smigley (HQI) can provide defensive HQ support in support of Lodz.

Germany also attacks through the Ardennes, and attacks the staff location of General Gaston Billotte. Current odds are 64:8, or 8:1. Note that the German AA attacks this hex.
Will the French HQI provide defensive support?

The final German attack is against Brussels. Note that the ENG is committed here, and that the ART next to the city is not yet used. The current odds is 55:6, or slightly above 9:1.

Re: A Blazing World (4-player game)
No support for any attacks in Belgium or France. Use the Polish HQ support for attack on Lodz. Fly the Polish Bomber and Fighter in support at Lodz. Land both in Warsaw

Ground support in China is one ART, and one NAV3, for a total of 6 points.
Ground support for Brussels is one ART, and one LND3, for a total of 6 points.
In Poland the German FTR2 intercept the Polish air.

Germany got a worthless result in the air combat, and shot down the Polish FTR2. Or, I presume that it will be the FTR2.
Ground support cleared, and a pilot to CW. Bah.
Edit: I think that any other result, by Germany, had been better. In my humble opinion, that is.

Two attacks remain after the automatic ones are done. Should they both be assault, or is any of them blitz?

Blitz in China, Assault in Lodz
Re: A Blazing World (4-player game)
Please ignore the erroneous roll that went out (with a second roll for Lodz HQ support).

The attack in China went better. The break was converted to a retreat. Which unit will China take as a loss?
