Churchill prefers to adopt a more defensive posture and reinforcements are sent to middle east rather than engaging air units in western france...

Axis subs have knocked out a couple of trannies but are now out of torps and a long way from home...

China continues a faceoff against the migth of the japanese army, when will they strike?

Axis subs enjoy Italian supplies in E. Africa and go on to harrass Allied shipping.

Nuisance axis sub resupplied from IEA which flipped the turn before..so they were able to load up torpedos and continue to harass british merchant fleet in the red sea...not sure why the italians were hoarding 21inch u-boat torps in africa

Anyway italian expedition in east africa is short lived anyway after being invaded by superior british forces...

In the med a lone italian tranny is sunk off corsica...hopefully this will put even more pressure on the italians trying to supply the armies of north africa...

Britain continues to fortify the home defenses while sending all spare units to cairo to prepare to defend against Rommel

Situation in the Med...big stand off with pretty even forces

The med is still at boiling point...RN and regia marina running naval execises alongside each other...only a matter of time before all hell breaks loose

Montgomery wins a nice little battle against a handful of inexperienced and ill equiped Italian forces after a tac and fighter together with coastal bombardment successfully knocked off Italian artillery...however it looks like Rommel is not far behind them with a couple of panzer divisions...

Maximum reinforcements sent to cairo...artillery set up all around the city...churchill reckons we can hold it but probably depends on timing of barbarossa...

KGB discovers that Japs are stealing a lot of American research...

Stalin surprised by the germnan invasion is urgently recalled from his holidays in antartica to attend emergency defense plans for moscow (which is likely to fall next turn...)

Russians are deep in the hole...scratch forces including the latest soviet weapon "peasants with pitch forks" are thrown into defensive fortications in moscow, grozny and staligrad...everyone praying for an early winter



While in the med things are shaping up quite nicely with Italian/German forces in north africa cut off from europe...allies desperately need to help out the soviets...

Yeah it is my first time, too. Now if only those Russians finally gave up Not much during Winter 1942 except an offensive by Rommel in N. Africa that fails but causes losses to the Allies. Japan waits.

Japan sits tight for another turn, US WR below 32. Will Roosevelt join at all or negotiate?
