Jan/Feb '40
Impulse #1 (Axis)

No declarations of war.

Land: Germany
Combined: Italy, Japan
Naval:

No port strikes.

Naval Air:
Italy:
NAV (51,30) -> Bay of Biscay 2-box

Naval Movement:

Japan:
BB + 2 x CA + AMPH + TRS (Fukuoka) -> China Sea 3-Box - AMPH loads MIL (Formosa) + TRS loads MIL (Fukuoka)
CV + BB + CA (Tokyo) -> Japanese Cost 4-box

Italy:
SUB (La Spezia) -> Western Mediterranean 3-box
SUB (La Spezia) -> Cape Verse Basin 3-box
SUB (La Spezia) -> Cape Verse Basin 1-box

Italy begin searching in the Bay of Biscay. CW can reinforce the 0-box in the sea area with one ATR3. Will CW fly to Bay of Biscay?

The next search will be in the Cape St. Vincent. CW has a NAV2 in Gibraltar. It can reach up to the 2-box. Will CW reinforce CSV?

jesperpehrson -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/15/2020 6:16:15 PM)

Nothing in Bay of Biscay.
Send the NAV to the0-box of Cape St Vincent



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/15/2020 6:32:49 PM)

Both sides find in the Bay of Biscay. (Axis 3, Allies 1)

Italy selects naval air combat, and there is no surprise points for either side. No result on either side. Italy stay.

Will CW stay for another round, or abort?

jesperpehrson -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/15/2020 6:39:26 PM)

Stay



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/15/2020 6:44:04 PM)

Both sides miss in the second search in Bay of Biscay. (Axis 10, Allies 8)

Next up is CSV.



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/15/2020 6:49:14 PM)

Jan/Feb '40
Impulse #1 (Axis)

No action in CSV. (Axis 9, Allies 6)

Next sea area is Cape Verde Basin.



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/15/2020 7:02:00 PM)

The effectiveness of the Axis U-boats can be questioned. No combat in CVB. (Axis 7, Allies 8)

Edit: Search rolls changed to the correct numbers.

Italy decline searching in the West Med.

Impulse #1 (Axis)

No strategic bombing.

Ground Strike

Japan:
NAV2 86,142->90,140

Germany:
LND2 (Brussels) -> 54,30
LND3 (Brussels) -> Paris
LND3 (Aachen) -> 56,30

France has two FTR2, and one FTR3, that can intercept all incoming bombers. Germany has two FTR2, and one FtR3 that can intercept some, or all, of the bombed hexes. See picture.

Will France intercept any of the ground strikes?

France will intercept the He 111 and the He 111h with the D510s. Potez stays on the ground. D510s stays until there are no Germans left in the sky and rebases then back to Paris.



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 2:03:02 PM)

Germany counter-intercepts the French fighter over Paris.

There will be two air combats. First up is the one over Paris.

Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 2:17:42 PM)

The air combat over Paris lasted two rounds and the German bomber was aborted, and the French fighters returned to Paris with a job well done.



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 2:21:32 PM)

The second air combat was a bloody affair.

Corpo d'armata Celere enters Marseilles and overruns the main French Fleet that flee the port. The cruiser Algérie is close to be captured but it manages to escape in the last minute (6 rolled)

Picture of Italian troops occupying Marseilles.

Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 3:02:54 PM)

The French fleet (6 BB + 7 CA + 2 SUB + 1 CP) in Marseilles is forced to seek new port(s). How will they sail? And where?

BB to Bordeaux and the rest to Dakar if possible



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 4:01:17 PM)

The Italian submarines decline to intercept the French battleships, but the Italian naval bomber decides to try and intercept.

Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 4:05:56 PM)

But the Italian bombers fail to spot the French fleet (die roll 6) and they reach Bordeaux.



Orm -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 4:09:00 PM)

The remaining French ships reach Dakar, un-intercepted.

MTN (58,31) -> 57,31

Japan:
Ter Kirin->61,155
Cav Div 69,132->72,131

Germany:
LXXI Infantry Korps capture Nice. The borders of Monaco are respected.
The German Army begins to envelop the Paris pocket.

Debark
MIL->Hangchow

Germany attacks the French forces NE of Paris. Current odds are 70:10, and Germany will select combat table (Combat expected 6:1 blitz unless French air interfere). Germany add no air support. France has one FTR3 that can fly defensive ground support. Germany has one 3 strength FTR2, and one 4 strength FTR3 available for counter-interception. German also has one AA that can fire on any French support attempt.

Will France fly any defensive air?

Zeijlon -> RE: The final countdown - En svensk uppgörelse (7/16/2020 5:56:30 PM)

No defensive air for France this time.

The German panzers breaks the French defenders despite the bravery shown by the French AT-gun crews.
