1/18/21, 12:45 PM - [Allied]: US entry, chit draw to German/Italy entry pool.
1/18/21, 12:47 PM - [Allied]: Oh my goodness, it's an 18 which produces (another) 1! At first I thought it might produce a 0, so getting a 1 mitigates that some.
1/18/21, 12:47 PM - [Axis]: Yea, US draws have been crap
1/18/21, 12:48 PM - [Allied]: US chooses option 13, "Embargo on strategic materials" to Japan. Tension (5) roll coming.
1/18/21, 12:48 PM - [Allied]: US has 5 chits in the Germany/Italy entry pool and they're all 1's!
1/18/21, 12:49 PM - [Axis]: Ha!
1/18/21, 12:49 PM - [Axis]: Lindbergh hugely popular...
1/18/21, 12:50 PM - [Allied]: Uh ... not "hip" to that last comment ... for us unhip folks please enlighten. 🤨
1/18/21, 12:51 PM - [Axis]: Lindbergh, while a fantastic pilot, was a notorious Nazi sympathizer
1/18/21, 12:51 PM - [Allied]: d10=9, no tension (i.e., no chit removed).
1/18/21, 12:51 PM - [Allied]: Got you ...
1/18/21, 12:51 PM - [Allied]: Like King Edward of Great Britain.
1/18/21, 12:51 PM - [Allied]: Or former King Edward
1/18/21, 12:51 PM - [Axis]: Yes
1/18/21, 12:52 PM - [Allied]: US Isolations movement causing the 1's. Now I've got you. 😀

1/18/21, 12:55 PM - [Allied]: have you noticed that is
1/18/21, 12:56 PM - [Allied]: That can't be right, can it?
1/18/21, 12:56 PM - [Axis]: Yea. I fixed it at one point but for some reason it did not stick.
1/18/21, 12:56 PM - [Axis]: I will hopefully deal with it during Axis SAS
1/18/21, 12:56 PM - [Allied]: copy.
1/18/21, 12:57 PM - [Allied]: By the way, if you run into any issue I can edit the game file during German production (build units) to add back in any BPs lost that shouldn't have been. So do kill yourself in frustration if MWiF refuses to cooperate.
1/18/21, 12:58 PM - [Axis]: thx
1/18/21, 12:58 PM - [Allied]: Will need to short break (30 minutes or so).

1/18/21, 1:38 PM - [Allied]: copy.
1/18/21, 1:39 PM - [Allied]: If you can't then I can edit the game file as a last resort to make things right.
1/18/21, 1:39 PM - [Allied]: Aren't there chit draws if Germany doesn't meet their trade obligation to the USSR?
1/18/21, 1:39 PM - [Allied]: Even so, I can deal with those too (if they occur).
1/18/21, 1:39 PM - [Axis]: I will fix it once I get the file

1/18/21, 3:58 PM - [Axis]: Germany will install a Vichy government. Not sure when that happens but I believe the conquering player should do it, correct?
1/18/21, 3:59 PM - [Allied]: I think that happens during the conquest phase right after the factory destruction phase.
1/18/21, 3:59 PM - [Allied]: I'll make sure you'll have the file back by then.
1/18/21, 4:01 PM - [Axis]: no worries. I was just warning you because if you go too far I don't think you can save in the middle of creating it
1/18/21, 4:01 PM - [Allied]: no, you can't and thanks for the warning.
1/18/21, 4:02 PM - [Allied]: By the way, I "ignored" that you are going to install Vichy while making the French builds.
1/18/21, 4:02 PM - [Axis]: Thanks!
1/18/21, 4:02 PM - [Allied]: They built the Lyons MIL and a garrison for their paltry 4 BPs.
1/18/21, 4:02 PM - [Allied]: That's what I would have done if I wasn't sure you were going Vichy or not.
1/18/21, 4:05 PM - [Allied]: Not sure, but may have gone to far. If I have will go back just before I ended Soviet builds. But let's see ...

1/18/21, 4:10 PM - [Allied]: not intentionally ... boy have the Japanese gotten the Chinese shaken.
1/18/21, 4:11 PM - [Allied]: favor please, would you send me a copy of the game file at the start of the factory destruction phase when you get to it after the conquest/surrender phase?
1/18/21, 4:11 PM - [Axis]: ok
1/18/21, 4:12 PM - [Allied]: thanks. I like to take an inventory of everyone build spiral before the start of the next turn. But that's my little secret.

1/18/21, 4:18 PM - [Allied]: 👍
1/18/21, 4:18 PM - [Allied]: By the way, have you check in any on our AAR in the MWiF Matrix forum?
1/18/21, 4:19 PM - [Axis]: I checked it out. It seems to have stopped though after the March and April turn
1/18/21, 4:19 PM - [Allied]: Just got to the end of the May/June turn.
1/18/21, 4:19 PM - [Allied]: last impulse.
1/18/21, 4:19 PM - [Allied]: will post end of turn stuff this evening to finish out that turn.
1/18/21, 4:20 PM - [Allied]: Personally, I feel posting from our WhatApps chat logs makes a decent AAR.
1/18/21, 4:22 PM - [Allied]: Definitely a lot less effort and interference than trying to do the AAR stuff while we're playing. Also, I feel that it maintains a coherent narrative too.
1/18/21, 4:22 PM - [Allied]: Anyway, dinner, evening break time.
1/18/21, 4:25 PM - [Axis]: Cya later

US isolationism (at least re ge) may also be impacted by the "good fight" ge having with the communists protecting Ro causing a conflict of moving towards war because of aggression in france
also france "expanded" the war by "sucking in" Yu and then never provided them any assistance, mearly watching them be overrun in order to delay their own defeat

3 oil lost each turn for the Euroaxis. That's a big advantage for the Allies, especially since the oil fields need to be repaired when they are back under Axis control. It will take at least a year before the Axis can get those oil fields back under control...
