The Italian bomber is cleared.

Will CW continue the air combat? And if CW aborts the air combat will CW abort the sea area as well?

Final odds is +17. Will China select blitz or assault?

It's hard to imagine USE going worse than it is in this game. US has missed rolls of 3,7,5,5 for tension vs JP in the last 2 turns and 9 out of the 13 chits in entry pools are 1's right now. Tension pools are a little better with chits of 1,2,3,4 but overall it looks like US war entry will be greatly delayed. Hopefully gear up can be managed by MJ or JA 41. Things look very dark for the allies with China on the verge of collapse, poor planning by SU with regard to Manchurian garrison, Yugo alignment coming soon, and USE in the slow lane. Unless the Axis totally stuff up Barb in 41 and 42 this game is only headed one way - total Axis victory.

I was hoping we could provide an entertaining AAR with both sides back and forth into 45 but this one looks like another loser for the allies. Very good Axis play on display here combined with Allied bumbling and poor luck. Let's see if things can do a 180 in the next 9 turns. I doubt it and expect to see Axis at Irkutsk in Siberia and ready to align Turkey by end of 42 with a weak US only just getting into the war by then.

IMHO things, don't looks good in China for the Allies and maybe with US entry too. But compared to the average time when the US choices are made:
* Resource to Western Allies 1940 Jan \ Feb to 1940 Mar \ April
* Gear Up 1941 Mar \ Apr
* Oil Embargo 1941 Jul \ Aug
* War benefits bar 1941 September \ Oct
* Full War 1942 May \ June

Things are not so bad, but they could have been better...

For the rest of the situation for the Allies:
- The North Med slightly below Normal.
- North Africa slightly below Normal.
- Western Europe Normal.
- Eastern Europe undecided
- Asia except China undecided
- Pacific Ocean undecided
- Atlantic Normal
- Siberia Good


But things can look different depending on perspective.
