I am unable to get decent odds on either of the two key Polish cities and so look to mop up some of the outer Polish defence first. Troops move on Danzig, Eastern Poland and the forests northwest of Krakow.

Japan

The Japanese move on Chengchow, while a reduced level of reinforcements head south.

One attack is announced against Chengchow - no aircraft are brought in

Germany

Three attacks are announced (see picture above) - no HQ Support or aircraft are brought in

The choice of table doesn't matter for the German attacks, but what about the Chinese? I guess it must be assault as there is no retreat path?

I don't understand the retreat rules but I thought you might have a retreat path to Rotterdam? Can't say for certain though....
