CW has a variety of aircraft available.

Spitfire to 1-box, Vildebeest and Hampden to 2-box and Blenheim to 3-box. Do any take to the air?

Japan sends 2 Lnd and the 105mm Art to ground strike the Chinese units SW of Yenan.

I need to check whether the Germans want any ground strikes, so that wraps things up for tonight.

Rebase for Germany:

Bf109 from SE of Lille to [53,34] hex east of Aachen
Bf109 from Aachen to [53,30] SE of Lille
Bf109 from SW of Bordeaux, one hex to SE [62,25]

No reorgs

Weather turns out fine everywhere.

Status: offline 		No declarations of war.

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

No Port Strikes.

CW fly a fighter into the Eastern Mediterranean (2-box).

HMS Furious sail for Liverpool while 2 cruiser replace her on the Bay of Biscay station.

French initiate a search for the Italian navy in the Western Mediterranean. CW reinforce the area (1-box) with one fighter and one naval bomber.

Will Germany commit their Bf 110C to Western Med? (It only reaches the 0-box)

Also, to speed things a little bit, will Germany initiate combat in the Bay of Biscay sea area since CW declined to search in this area. If so, which of the aircraft will initiate? If you want to wait for the results in the Western Med then that is fine as well. (air support to the Bay of Biscay will be a later question either way)

The 4 was not low enough to find. Edit: Three was needed for Italy to find.

No strategic bombing. No ground strikes.

CW rail a militia from Casablanca to Algiers.

Here it will be a break in the action since I leave command to My Lord Warspite1.

Edit: The Allied impulse will continue tomorrow.

Onto the land moves now and these can be summarised as follows (no pictures really necessary).

Soviets:

Rail: Mongolian cavalry take the great iron horse to the unpronounceable city on the Amur river….

Stalin continues to ramp up the pressure on Finland. Yet more troops are sent to Karelia and the troops already in the region move closer to the border.

The Chinese Communists send a division toward Sian.

CW:

The Egyptians decide that Cyrenaica is not all its cracked up to be and make a volte-face and head back to Tobruk

The Crack 2nd Infantry Corps move north and make camp in Rabat.

With summer fast approaching Lord Gort packs his knotted hanky and bucket and spade and heads off down the A303 to Devon for his holidays. He is greeted by the usual British summer holiday weather. Lovely.....

Ice-cream anyone?

The Nationalist Chinese start to withdraw from the north. Chiang-Kai-Shek has better things to do with his troops than sacrifice them to save the communists.


Chinese Nationalist begin the long trek south to protect central China and environs.

The Spanish set up as below.

No, there is two rolls if they both declare war. This has been confirmed by the highest authority.

You can avoid the two rolls by only declaring war with Germany, and Italy goes to war with Spain if Spain is aligned to a major power that Italy is at war with. In this game Spain was forced to align with CW or France so Italy would have been at war with Spain either way. But without the DOW there is no surprise effects. So if Italy wants to surprise Spain then they must DOW and suffer the extra US entry roll.
