Currently it is 1:3, but Axis have 50% chance to get 1:2.

There is no shore bombardment left for either side. Axis did not use ground support, fighter is all they have left.

Allies have 2 disorganized units in Gibraltar.

The best Axis can get is current odds.

warspite1

Okay thank-you. No aircraft for the Allies please.

Rolling 628 fractional odds fails (assuming I counted it right).

German INF div takes the hit. Which Allied unit will be destroyed?

Well thank-you. You will be pleased to hear that said important parts of strategy have been attended to.

I've made us a nice brew.

End of Turn
Partisans

Hi Gents - I tried to do the partisan throws but used the wrong dice (as you can see from the e-mails)

I will try again - please ignore those results.....I assume its 1d100!

Right. To save a million e-mails I will do 10 x 1d100 and 2 x 1d10. These will be applied in strict order.

Korea - 15
China - 15
China - 8
China (Pick Partisan Unit) - 1
China (Pick Partisan Unit) - 3
Malaya - 28
NEI - 51
Burma - 94
Manchuria - 62
India - 66
France - 46
Belgium - 42
French Indo-China - 22

One 0-3 Communist Chinese Partisan appears in Kaifeng

Neutrality Pact

The machine has sent two e-mails again. As you can see I have used the first e-mail sent. The Germans place two to offence and move a marker from defence to offence.

The Soviets choose an Offensive marker.

US Entry Pools

The US Government pass the War Appropriations Bill

FDR "This is my serious face. I am passing the War Appropriations Bill".
Bill: Thanks Mr President

Allies and Axis compete in rolling low. Axis succeeds with rolling lowest but thereby leave the initiative to the Allies.

Having had severe delays because of yet more convoy issues, we now have a bug at initiative stage leading to mad excepts

Stay tooned - hopefully normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.

Can I get some thoughts / links leading to thoughts regarding Global War Russian Set up and Scrapping. Lots of territory to cover with few units. Also, there seem to be some options for consideration that I am unsure I understand the pros and cons of. Ie Bessarabia / Finland / Where to set up Zhukov and what to do with him / Also convoy points (Russia doesnt seem to have any trade occuring over water with anyone - so I am a little confused what to do with the cp for them.

Thank you

The initiative bug has now been bypassed. The game will continue later today. Or so I hope.

Gneisenau succeeds in intercepting HMS Eagle. The carrier then seeks the safety of the British battleships in the 0-box.

With throws of 6 = Allied and 4 = Axis there is no combat.....

In Cape St Vincent HMS Birmingham searches for the Axis forces. Two Swordfish NAV, one 5-strength Hurricane and one 3-strength Gladiator head for the '0'-box. What do the Axis want to do with their 3 Italian NAV and 4 German fighters, 1 NAV and 1 LND?
