The most common mistake in the game is the Allies not fighting the Germans hard enough. "But I'll lose those units." Yes, that's why it's called War.

I'm sure you'll pop off a die-roll of '2' at just the worst time, when you least expect need it. That's what happens to me.

Great AAR!

Status: offline 		M/J 40 ended on the Allied turn. There were no new partisians. And no US entry options chosen. US entry is really lagging behind. Here is this turns production.
Germany: Fighter-2, pilot x2, land-2, Artillery
Italy: BB repair
Japan: pilot, cvp x2, CV 2nd phase x2, Marine Div, Fighter-2, Inf.
China: Artillery
CW: pilot x2, BB 2nd phase, Fighter-2, Nav-3, Terr x2
France: Militia x3, Pilot, Convoy point
USA: pilot, cvp, amphib 2nd phase, transport 2nd phase, Fighter-2
USSR: pilot x2, mech, Inf x2
J/A 40 starts with the Allies winning Initiative and choosing to go first. The French hope to try and fix their line and hold out as long as possible.
