In the West Med, the Italian fighter initiates searching and both sides find each other (both rolled 3). Naval Air combat is chosen. Both ships are identical, so I pick CA Canberra for the first of 2A. CA Canberra survives some near misses. With the first A saved, I put the second A on the Australia as a save there would leave both ships on station. It gets aborted. Do the Allies wish to stay?

CP can't go to Aden due to FTC. Options are Gib, Cyprus, Malta, Bardia, Tobruk or UK ports but then needs to fight through the subs.

Japan ends up not making any land moves. Italy adjusts positions of a couple of units on the French border.

Land: China
Combined: USSR, USA
Naval: CW, Free France

No Port Strikes. No naval air.

CW send a few convoy points to Cape St Vincent. Plenty of convoy escorts leave port. One transporter loaded with a motorized corps return to Plymouth, from the North Sea, escorted by one cruiser.

Home Fleet sail to Bay of Biscay where a carrier fleet from Gibraltar join up. A loaded transporter, escorted by two battleships, also sail to Bay of Biscay from Gibraltar.

Well as I see it, the US can't make all normal choices if the time tables is going to hold for US entry.
Some of the below are needed to be skipped. Its for the Allies to figure out what to leave and for the Axis to try to take advantage of it.

China: US Entry options 1, 9, 17, and 24
Commonwealth and France: 4, 15, 16, 25, and 27
Atlantic convoys: 7, 11, 20, 29, 32, 38, 44, and 50
USSR: 19 and 30
Japan: 13, 23, 26, 31, 36, 40, 41, and 43
Americas: 33 and 48
Production: 22, 28, 34, and 46
