Status: offline 		The Italians rail a CAV to Cadiz. Antonescu rails towards Stalingrad. Japanese troops move into attack position around Tsitsihar.
The Blitzkrieg really takes on speed:
German forces move towards Vorozneh, cutting supply to Timoshenko. An disorganised INF gets overrun. The tramsservice at Stalingrad is still operating, when the LVII Panzer Korps races through the city, after which they move forward towards Saratov, where on the airfields the crews of two TB-3''s manage to destroy the planes before they are taken prisoner. The oilfields at Grozy are taken by a MECH which races towards Astrakhan. The PzKw I's of the LII Korps take the oilfields at Armavir after which they cross the straits at Kerch, taking the iron mines...
The Turkish army crosses the Caucasus. Other German units around Baku are moving along the coast north to secure the railline.

The Italian commanders of the Ethiopian TERR orders a suicide attack (the unit will be destroyed during conquest, so why not try to take an Allied INF with it). The cruiser Shropshire aids the defenders, while the Italian BB's also bombard the hex:

Moscow to Washington and London: “The Soviet Army is collapsing. We need help”...

There is a 90% chance that the turn will end if all Allies pass. They do so and prey that the die roll will be with them:

Status: offline 		Germany produces 48 build points (all factories operating) and saves 10 oil. 8 oil are used for reorganisation. 7 oil remain for future use. A 5 point FTR and the Yugoslavian CAV is scrapped. Germany builds an offensive, 3 forts, 2 TERR, 2 INF, Pilot, FTR3, 2FTR2, NAV3, and a MECH.

Italy produces 15 build points and saves 2 oil. 4 oil are used for reorganisation and 8 oil remain for future use. A SUB gets scrapped. The Italians build 2 pilots, NAV3, FTR2 and 2 INF.

Japan produces 26 build points (one factory isn't used) and saves 5 oil. 6 oil are used for reorganisation and 10 oil remain for future use. The Taiho gets finished. Builds are CVP, FTR2, NAV2, 3 pilots, 2 CP, CV (first cycle), MAR and MOT.

Here is the national anthem of the Phillipines:

France receives 2 build points from the US. It saves 1 oil. 1 oil is used for reorganisation and 4 oil remain for future use. It builds a CVP and saves the remaining build point.

The US produces 55 build points. 2 are send to France. It saves 22 oil (it received 20 oil from the CW in trade). 7 oil are used for reorganisation and 24 oil remains for future use. A CVP gets scrapped. They repair the French cruiser Malcolm, the New Zealand cruiser Leander and a TRS. The light carrier Belleau Wood, the cruisers Cleveland and Denver and an AMPH gets finished. They start two Essex Class Carriers and 2 AMPH. Builds are: 2 CP, HQ-ARM, 2 MIL, 3 FTR2, CVP and 3 pilots.

The CW produces 26 build points (3 factories aren't used due to the broken convoy lines between Australia and the US). It saves 6 oil and uses 5 oil for reorganisation. After sending 20 oil to the US, there remains 41 oil available for future use. The Formidable gets finished and starts an AMPH and a TRS. Builds are: 2 CP, 2 pilots, 2 NAV3, TERR and GAR.

The USSR produces 20 build points. It saves 1 oil and uses 5 oil for production. 1 oil is used for reorganisation. 34 oil remains for further use. 2 obsolete FTR's are scrapped. Builds are 2 HQ-I, 3 GAR and 2 MIL.

The Phillipines was conquered by Japan and Upper Volta was conquered by Italy. Persia was liberated by Italy and Germany returned territory to the country(well, that was what they wanted to do. A small bug here...).
The Persian partisans rebel against this decision. They want independence and want to introduce communism, which they would want to get rid of first... O well, that's the rules...

Status: offline 		May/June 1942, Allied impulse number 1:

The USSR takes a combined action. It hasn't got a lot of units which can be moved in this weather, so why not?
The US, CW and France take naval actions, due to the weather throughout the globe.

Listen to: At Last - Glenn Miller (Ray Eberle, vocal)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sg16tbH6OI

The convoy escorts are again put in place. The US moves the carrier fleet out of Capetown into the Bay of Bengal. Tbe first Murmansk convoy sails out of Liverpool. Loaded TRS sail out into the Cape St. Vincent, guarded by CW and US battle fleets. The US Carriers enter the Red Sea. Loaded TRS are sighted around New Zealand and Pago Pago. Other TRS load Brazilian and US units at the coast. A Canadian FTR gets loaded for transportation and the Dutch transport the Typhoon FTR to the South. Large escorts are provided for those TRS which might get attacked by Axis fleets. The Allied SUB's again sail out of Australia towards the South China Sea and search for the Japanese merchantmen. The storms in the sea area prevents any aircraft activity. However, the Allies fail to find the merchantmen, due to the weather (Allied 5, Axis 4).

The Black Sea fleet sails out of Sevastopol.

The Soviets rail a Siberian INF out of Novosibirsk to Kirov. The Soviet government is evacuated out of Moscow. Omsk is the temporary capital of the Soviet Union. Stalin however is stubborn and stays in his bunker in Moscow. He announces that Beria, in case of the fall of Moscow will become the new leader of the Soviet Union. Beria later writes: “I've never seen Stalin so full of guilt. He took it personally that he couldn't save the Soviet soldiers, so he stayed in Moscow”.

The USSR retreats Yeremenko out of contact with the Japanese towards the west. Some other units are moved to. The Soviet airforce rebases eastwards.

Status: offline 		May/June 1942, Axis impulse number 3:

Germany and Japan take naval actions, Italy takes a land action.

Germany send SUB's into the North Atlantic. They search for the merchantmen in the area. The British send the Vildebeast on patrol. Axis roll 6, Allies roll 1. The Allies avoid combat (not wanting to risk the precious merchantmen).

The Germans also send a fleet into the Black Sea. They decide to wait if the Soviets would want to battle this sea area.

In the Bay of Bengal, the Japanese want to try if they can get rid of the cruiser there and start hammering on the Allied forces in Birma. A BB fleet, together with a couple of slow CV's sail out of Singapore and search for the CW cruiser. Allies roll 1, Axis roll 3. This means that the Frobisher runs into the Japanese battle fleet:

The Japanese decide to include the units in the sea boxes 0 and 1. 2 surprise points are used to decrease damage and 6 to increase damage:
