French MOT retires back behind the Maginot line. The Yugoslavians make a couple of adjustments to their positions.

Spitfire rebases from Cardiff to east of Portsmouth.

Hudson rebases from Pearl to Kauai.

Weather stays about the same.

France sends a couple of cruisers from Syria to East Med 4-box.

The French send out the LND on extended range to bomb Nuremburg. It's flight takes it out of range of possible intercepts. The raid proves successful.

CW rails MIL from St Nazaire to Boulogne and INF to Rouen

Lanchow MIL continues east, becoming disorganised in the mountain rain.

Nationalist 1st and 6th INF become disorganised moving in the mountains 1 hex back towards Chungking.

French forces vacate Lille.

CW moves IV MOT from Calais to Lille. Krakow Army, supported by Polish 1st INF Div move from Warsaw to Lodz. The Polish decide they won't go quietly into the night and a desperate counter-attack is planned. The odds are slim but disorganisation and supply shortages in the German forces give a slim hope of success.

Do the Germans wish to add any ground support?

warspite1 -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (1/30/2019 1:01:56 AM)

I don’t have access to the manual or game at present but assume that I can double the ground score of 2 with a 3 point Heinkel halved to 1.5, if so then I will bring in the closest Heinkel and, if my choice, opt for assault. Aircraft flies back to where it started.

Edit: Yes that is correct - so those orders stand.




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (1/30/2019 5:54:39 PM)

It may not have been quietly but into the night they go.

Where would the Germans like to place their markers?

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (1/30/2019 7:02:43 PM)

USSR puts it's marker to offence.

US puts a chit to the GER/IT pot.

The US interns the Bearne but nobody notices (10 rolled).

A bill is passed to allow resources to China. It gets barely a mention (9 rolled).
