The CW aborts the sea area.
Another Japanese cruiser task force enters the Coral Sea and searches for enemy merchantmen. Axis roll 8, Allies roll 1. The Allies avoid combat.

Submarines in the Tasman Sea patrol the sea area. Axis roll 6, Allies 9. The ocean is a big place...

In the New Zealand Coast, a Japanese task force, consisting of CV's, a BB and a couple of cruisers search for the enemy. Axis roll 2, Allies roll 3. The cruiser Suffolk is found and opens fire with the AA guns:

Both sides stay for another round. Axis roll a 4 and the Allies a 6. Contact is lost. In Polynesia another Japanese CV task force searches for a loaded TRS. Axis roll 8, Allies 4. It's a big ocean indeed...

In the South China Sea, the US again decides to search for the Japanese merchantmen. Allies roll 1, Axis 8. Weather is storm, so no planes could fly into the sea area. A submarine combat is called for. 4 points are spend to decrease the Allied losses to non and 6 are spend to increase the Japanese losses:

Tojo is shocked when the huge losses of merchantmen are reported to his war cabinet. In the next round, the Allies don't include the submarines anymore, ending the combat in the sea area.

The Soviet admiral in the Black Sea is positioned to provide defensive shore bombardment when he gets reports of German and Turkish naval vessels leaving Istanbul northwards. He decides to attack the Axis fleets. Allies roll 1 and Axis 6. The Leipzig is sighted just before the bow of the Soviet task force when it sails out of a rainpour. The German ship isn't able to fire any of his guns, before the granades hit the poor vessel (2 surprise points used to decrease damage to nothing and 2 to increase damage):

Both sides decide to stay in the sea area. However, even the Black Sea is big (Allies roll 4, Axis roll 6).

Italy rails an ART into Cairo. An INF arrives in Morocco and other units are moved to improve positions. Italian units move towards Teheran to kill the Soviet partisan in Persia, before it gets out of reach:

May/June 1942, Allied impulse number 5:

The USSR and the CW choose land actions. France passes and the US takes a combined action.

Italian ships in Port Sudan are suddenly attacked by waves of US carrier planes. Axis and Allies both roll 2. The Italian AA opens fire:
