What about the Soviet rail move? Rail the cav division to the Finnish border?

Edit: Never mind. That rail route is not yet open.

Edit2: Timoshenko instead?
warspite1

Yes - that seems sensible.

So what is happening about the AAR - are you doing that for the naval stuff? What about the Chinese?

I considered moving the AT there.

I take it there are no land attacks in China? After I have finished the land moves is there anything else ahead of trying to (hopefully) end the turn?

I do not like it either but at least one of the sides is protected by river.

The AT is stacked with a 5 so that is only 7 in defence if he attacks with infantry only. And 9 if he uses armour. I can not see how you can weaken that hex further.

You have 1 unit in the homeland and that is more than outside. So one unit can always leave.

Edit: Then you just place what you need during the reinforcement step. Neat way to keep your opponent guessing.

Then you could remove fighters and ad more bombers.

Fun thing with the minor country units rule is that if a country has two land units and no other units they can both leave their home country.

I am very concerned. But I guess there is nothing we can do but hope that the turn ends at some point in our lifetime.....

I see that we got nothing again for US entry too

I see that there is actually a 3 in 10 chance of Fine weather next turn too!!! We really could do with a break there.

1) A belief in the Axis high command that giving away the borderlands is the safe thing to do.

or,

2) Make certain that if there is a war with Finland there will be no peace.

And the way he is going to accomplish this is to be a railway station in Karelia so that USSR can get forces in a position where it will not be possible to stop those forces from entering Finland proper. And he also functions as a supply source for those forces.

I will get back to you, tomorrow, with a plan to avoid war with Finland.

Meanwhile, you could ponder on a plan for Iraq. I think a summer war, if Germany do not seem to aggressive in Poland.

Interesting. Risky if France suffers some big dice and quickly collapses - but interesting.

Status: offline 		As far as the Allied turn is concerned I could easily pass with both the French and the Soviets. Only moves I can think of that would be of use would be:

French:

Swap the 4-4 Mtn with the 3-3.

Soviet:

The 6-6 Mech, 5-3 and 1-4 move to Odessa (for future rail purposes). The Mongolian cavalry move west of Ulan-Ude.

Then either:
Soviet: Move Eng toward Tabriz or
Chinese: Move the warlord to the west of Si-An behind the river.

Of course - but the units would be out of place! I will give this some thought and see what happens in the coming turn.

Status: offline 		Doesn't matter so much if they are out of place during '40. Important thing is that they are within the European 'rail zone'. And not occupied so they can be transferred as soon as possible. Of course, some units must be in place. And there are two reasons to wait until summer. By then we should be able to see where Germany turns.
