Status: offline 		November/December 1941, Axis impulse number 1:

Germany and Italy take land actions. Japan takes a naval action.

The Japanese admiralty wants to either force the CW navy to engage the Japanese carriers or to get ashore in New Britain and Papua in force. Apart from this, the general staff wants to take our Singapore this turn. Therefore a lot of naval activity at the start of the turn.

So here is: The Advance of The Sea March

Apart from a loaded TRS in the China Sea , the convoy escorts and the Japanese SUB's again sailing to harass CW shipping, these are the major area's of the Japanese fleet:

Japan initiates combat in Polynesia, however the Ocean is big. The SUB's don't find the convoys and their escorts.

In Iraq, Italian and German planes ground strike the USSR positions. After next impulse the Soviets will have air superiority over the frontlines, which means time is running out for Guderian to break out of the mountains.

But what can be done about this (mistake made by me, I should have put one of the INF reinforcements into Vologda. I totally forgot about the Ski division being able to go this far during this turn).

The French and the CW take naval actions. The US a combined and the USSR a land action.

The CW and the French transport more landunits around the Cape towards India and East Africa. The convoy chain from India towards the UK is repaired and the convoy escorts are installed. SUB's sail into the South China Sea. A French cruisers enters the Coral Sea to restore supply to Rabaul. The CW fleet in Brisbane stays in port.

Here's: Harry Roy - The Booglie Wooglie Piggy:

The Allies don't want to fight in any sea area. The Japanese, however, want to get rid of the French cruiser in the Coral Sea. Carrier planes spot the ship:

Here's the March of Stalin's Airforce:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DisPLXjp6cI

The Leningard MIL retreats into Leningrad. At the Belorussian and Ukrainian fronts, minor adjustments are made to improve positions. However, in Persia, the front is closed by a ARM and the FTR's are rebased into positions so they can reach the frontlines.

Status: offline 		November/December 1941, Axis impulse number 5.

All Axis powers take land actions. The orders from Berlin and Rome are simple. Break the Soviet frontlines. Ground strikes are announced against several hexes.

Some music out of occupied France: Ray Ventura - Ménilmontant

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHTRGL1sMYA

Guderian again gives his statement on the situation in Persia: “If I do nothing, I will never break through. If I wait for reinforcements out of Greece, they will take the whole winter to arrive. I've got no choice. Also, meine Herren: Klotzen, nicht Kleckern...”. The Stuka flies, escorted by an Italian FTR to ground strike the stack in the mountains. The Soviet airforce reacts by sending up one FTR to intercept. An air-to-air battle commences:
