No strategic bombing. No Ground Strikes. No rail movement.

German forces capture Gabes in Tunisia. Two other units reposition themselves on the Belgian border.

Terauchi gets disorganized in central China. Yamamoto concentrate his forces on Changsha.

Japan attacks Changsha. Yamamoto provide HQ support. The air force adds 5 points in ground support. I am assuming that China selects assault. Otherwise I can always go back and change to blitz.

Germany has cursed the weather for a long time now, thinking it must get better soon. Alas, the weather has not really improved, but time is getting short...

Germany DOW Belgium. US reacts strongly and one chit is added to the entry pool (5).

Belgium aligns to CW.

No rail movement.

The German Army advance as many units they can into Belgium. The Korps in Tunisia advance two hexes northwards. And the division in Olbia advance one hex north.

The Italian forces in Egypt withdraw two hexes westwards.

Japan relocate the two TERR in Manchuria. A few units advance towards Chihkiang, and one marine corps makes an outflanking movement north of Chihkiang.

Germany makes three land attacks.

Will CW include the Belgian notional in Brussels?

The odds before air support, and before HQ support, is as follows:
Antwerp: 37:9 -> +6.22 (HQA Rundstedt is cancelling the negative city modifier)
Liege: Automatic
Brussels: 19:2 -> +14 (not +15 as the picture shows, I suspect that the factory modifier is forgotten at this juncture)

Edit: I was wrong with the attack being +14 on Brussels, I forgot the +1 because the notional is disrupted. One reason of my error is that the attack was listed as +14 before the notional form appeared. So the attack was indeed +15.

von Rundstedt declare HQ support for the assault on Antwerp.

Germany adds all available aircraft for ground support. Four fighters and six bombers. Three points are added to the attack on Brussels and 26 points are added to the attack on Antwerp.

Note that I was wrong on the odds on Brussels before the support. It was indeed +15. See edit in my previous post.

Germany can initiate combat on North Sea if they want.

If they do, CW/France can intercept with FTRs and LNDs, Germany can intercept with one FTR. (in picture submarine already initiated so that I was able to see all possible units to intercept).
