Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1942. Iceland and Greenland Still Neutral?

I think I've uncovered a bug, which I've posted in the Tech Forum, where the US is unable to base in Iceland or Greenland. This bug, until fixed assuming it's a bug, will complicate moving US air to England. For now, I'll have to move them via transport instead of rebasing through Iceland and Greenland.

From last turn, Japan increased her victory totals by 1 and the USA saw a reduction of 2 (1 to Japan and 1 lost because both Brazil and Mexico are aligned).

WiF has a lot of rules I don't like, but it is my opinion that this particular rule (the US loses an objective for aligning both Mexico and Brazil) is the most ridiculous.

Agreed. They should have scrapped either the Mexican or Brazilian victory hex to get this same result...

Turn 17. May/June 1942. Axis #1. Italy. Naval. Italian Coast. East Med.

The Italians take a naval and restore supply through the Italian Coast and the East Med to their armies in North Africa and the Middle East.

The Italian RM elect not to try to initiate naval combat in either area. The RN, as the non-phasing player, also chooses not to try instead waiting until their phase when they can bring more naval and air forces into both areas and (hopefully) ensure overwhelming force.
