PS -- Turn 17. May/June 1942. Allied #2.

I forgot to post this earlier. The Soviets railed another blue factor to the east.

MJ i3: Naval moves
Japan takes a naval, Italy a combined and Germany a land.
No naval air moves for Italy and Germany. Japan flys out to the Coral Sea and the Solomon Sea.
Early in the naval moves, JP moves to the E. Indian Ocean with a CA, the FR can intercept. Will They?

Next, an unloaded Transport and BB move into the China Sea. Will the subs intercept?

Rolled a 1 and found. The units stopped in the 2-box and the transport picked up the Osaka MIL. A second transport for Tokyo, without escort, made the same run. This time you rolled a 6 and missed. It continued onto the S. China Sea.

The Transport in Fukuoka moved into China Sea loaded with the 8-3 Corp. The interception roll was again a 6. It moved on to Shanghai.

Fuso BB made the run alone. I assumed you would not intercept it and it continued to the China Sea.

MJ42 i3:
Naval Combats. First up is the E. Med. I reacted an Italian fighter to the 1-box and had the CW react their fighter to the 0-box. Rolls of 4/10 have the axis finding and engaging the 0-box. 4 SP to make it a surface and 2 SP to move it up to a D, sinking the CP. Four SP unused.

Stay for a round 2?

Also, what planes will react to the Central Atlantic? Both IT subs moved to the 3-box there.
I don't think you can react to the other

Yes. The objective is to end combat, but the RSA fighter will stay to the bitter end.

The Hampden based in the British Antilles and the Blenheim based in Sunto Antao will fly to the Central Atlantic. Whichever of these two can reach the highest box put them in that box and put the other in the 0-box. If the CW surprises the subs and there's a good chance (80% or better) to clear the area of those buggers then fight, otherwise avoid.

Naval Combat continued.
E. Med second round rolls were 10/3 and contact was lost. (I assumed you would stay).

Moved to the Japanese while awaiting the word on the Central Atlantic.
Arabian Sea search rolls of 7/5 resulted in no contact.

Cape Naturaliste rolls of 3/10 resulted in the CA sinking the CP.

Coral Sea rolls of 2/9 resulted in the Japanese engaging the BB and CP in a Naval Air battle with 9 SP.
The took a X D 2A and did poorly on damage control. The CP and the Nevada were sunk.

A few more:
2nd round of Coral Sea both rolled 1's. The axis subs were not committed, so it was a big deal about nothing.
3rd round rolls of 2/8 allowed the JP to avoid combat and end this nonsense.

Christmas Island rolls of 6/5 resulted in no contact.

In the New Zealand coast, the convoys spot the subs moments before they themselves are spotted (rolls of 3/2) and both sides find with no usable SP by either side. In a sub combat the convoy is sunk (4 sub pts versus 1 ship is a D result).

In the Central Atlantic. Round 1 search rolls of 1/4 allowed the axis to engage only the 0-box with 6 SP. They use 4 SP to make it a surface and the last 2 SP to increase the result versus the CW to D 3A. I am assuming you will stay for round 2.

The Solomons. Search rolls of 5/5 allowed the axis NAV in the 4-box to find. It engaged both the CP and CA with 2 SP.
Used the 2 SP to increase the damage to D 3A. JP place the D on the CP and the CA was aborted back to Pearl.

Yes, I will stay. My convoy lines are taking a beating this turn.

CW CP aborts go back to England, if they can make it without having to fight through any sea areas, and within range of reorganization by CW HQ unit(s).

It's, one again, past my bedtime. Goodnight all.

In the Hawaiian Island zone rolls of 5/4 resulted in no contact.

In the SE Indian Ocean rolls of 5/6 resulted in no contact.

However in the East Indian Ocean rnd 1 rolls of 2/3 resulted in the JP isolated the CP and sinking it (first image below).
In round 2 rolls of 2/4 allowed the JP to engage the FR CA, the increased the damage to a D (image is before surprise was shown). The damage roll was an 8, which damaged the CA. I aborted the FR from the zone at this point. I am missing images and getting tired, so I'm likely to quit for the night here shortly.

The last sea zone for me, The West Indian Ocean.
Rnd 1 search rolls of 2/6 allowed me to engage only the CPs in the 0-box and destroy them.
Rnd 2 search rolls of 6/3 had the FR CA getting the drop on the JP with 3 SP. They used 2 SP to increase the damage to the JP (they could not reduce the damage on themselves to less than a D). They took their damage and were aborted and then aborted one of the JP CAs. The Rnd 2 images are shown below.

My last post for the evening.
The Japanese did not initiate in the Sea of Japan, the Mariannas, nor the China Sea.
The US has the option to initiate with the already used sub in the China Sea. The image below shows what is present.

The US sub(s) dive for safety. They choose NOT to try to initiate.

Had a good time last night. My son took me to the Clippers/Timber wolves game last night while he was in town visiting. It was nice to have the Timber wolves pull out a win.

Here, I have three ground strikes. St-Malo, and the ART on Minsk cannot be intercepted. However on the approach to Kiev, you can intercept and I could counter intercept. Will you?

Yes. Instructions, target the bomber. Stay until the bombers is either shot-down, aborted or cleared or the fighter is aborted or shot down. Rebased in the woods behind the Dnieper.

We've both had our streaks of good and bad rolls. My feel is that statistically our rolls are approaching the average.

I will run the battle shortly, but the fighter will not make it back over the Dnieper. It's range is 3 and that is too far from the site of the battle.
