Regretfully Billotte declines to add support. He thinks it may soon be needed for the last ditch defence of Paris.

Assault table in China, thanks.

Germany rebases 2 bombers close to Paris and one fighter east close to Berlin.

Italy rebases fighter by 2 hexes to protect oil.

Japan rebases fighter to Shanghai.

Ju52 reorganizes artillery adjacent to Paris.

Back to Allies.

Good move Mayhemizer on preserving the Harbin MIL. Its always a good thing to keep the MIL's from cities the enemy could or will take...you can use them for anti partisan duty, etc...

Harbin attack would have been actually +9 or +10. But Japs need every unit to form a line in Manchuria. All Japs can hope is rain. All winter and spring rain, rain and rain... Those nasty cavalry in north and south try to put us OOS.

Two combats declared. The Soviets against Harbin Mil and the Nationalists at Wuhan.

Do the Japs wish to provided Emergency HQ support at Wuhan? Odds change from +10 to +3.33.

Japs can fly a 1-factor bomber to the Harbin Mil. Does it want to fly?

Japs uses HQ support at Wuhan.

In Manchuria bomber will fly and fighter will cover if needed. Bomber will land to Kirin and fighter to Changchun.

Japan chooses Assault in both attacks.

Terauchi sends his last reserves of supplies to the defenders of Wuhan. Zhukov adds HQ support. The Japs add 1 point of ground support. The Ftr isn't needed.

In Manchuria, the Soviets use winterized bonus. They get the job done but we won't be hearing much from them for the rest of the turn.

CW rebases A-22 back to Cagliari. USSR rebases Ftr and Lnd to Harbin.

No reorgs.

Turn continues on a 9.

Weather report.

That Chinese attack was remarkable. When I make attacks like that, I roll an 11, and kill all three attacking units.

If I'd remembered Emergency HQ support before calling the attack, I wouldn't have called it. I saw that initial +10 and charged on. Even so, I was curious whether Mayhemizer would use it as it would put the HQ disorganised and OOS. Perhaps he has a cunning plan for that or simply the turn ending as the chance will be pretty high now.

Fortunately the dice went my way.

Final result 15 would have costed you 2 units. So anything less than 16 would have been great for me.

Now Japs hopes for turn end, Germany not so much.

Ultimately, it was a foolish attack to launch but then got lucky.

After failed attack against CAV I realized you might attack Wuhan and put them OOS. I decided before hand to use HQ, my goal was to cause losses to Chinese and disorganize attacking units. Looks like Japs don't get everything they want. Germany has a chance to take Paris before J/F 1940 ends, let's see how my ground strikes go.

Here we go!

J/F 40 Axis 11 (50% chance for turn end)

Germany land, Italy and Japan combined. Japan really need to take land, but war economy needs CP's to China Sea...

Italy sends 11 ships to West Med box 3.

Japan sends 3 CP to China Sea.

Japan declines China Sea, but Italy goes after CW CV's in West Med.

If USSR wants to try find something in China Sea they have 10% chance to do it and Japan has planes in boxes 0, 3 and 4.

West Med Axis 3, Allies 9. 1 less for Axis and it would have been fun. Italy is burning oil a lot. I was not sure if it wise to take 5 speed battle ships and not reach box 4...

Do USSR want to initiate combat in China Sea?

As I'm not sure whether the subs will get back to port anyway, may as well have a bash.

Both rolled 9 and barely found water...

Bombs and shells are falling from sky in Paris. HQ is disorganized, looks like Germany is going for last assault...

Germany uses Engineer, HQ support and winterized to unit in Paris. Final odds are +10,36.

I bet France chooses Assault? In that case Germany needs 10+ to take Paris.

Japs are in trouble but Germany keeps going! Paris is taken without German losses! (I think German land unit losses are total 2 BP's). I call this prefect success.

Germany chooses retreat. France must choose one unit to be destroyed.

Edit: Odds were +8,864 and Germany needed 11 to take Paris.

Edit2: German land unit losses so far: 2 BP's in Poland and 2 BP's in France. 2 ships are destroyed and few more damaged. 1 NAV is destroyed in Mediterranean.

This is what I forgot to say earlier:

Germany rails INF div from Italy to Kiel. Japan rails Artillery to Kirin.

Japan moves 3 units in central China to put HQ is supply again.

Italian INF enters Algeria.

J/F 40 Allies 14

No DoW

USSR, US, CW, Combined. China Land. France Naval.

French move a Trans from Bordeaux to Cape Verde. Their fleet sorties to the West Med 4, 3 and 0 boxes.

CW moves Trans with Glasgow Mil to Malta. The Italian intercept in the West Med failed on a 10.

3 areas for Naval combat although Allies decline Cape Verde.
