Italian SB's enter the Cape Verde Bassin. However, it proves to be a big ocean again (Axis 10, allies 9).

Von Leeb rails towards Murmansk. Prince Paul rails into Kazachstan. The Finnish MECH is railed to the Ostfront, where the German positions are improved. At Leningrad, units move into position to get railed to other area's. There are no attacks in the USSR, due to the weather.
