If you roll 10, it doesn’t matter what I choose. If you roll really low, it matters.

The fractional roll was a success and the final odds was 4:1 +1. And a 5 was rolled. All attackers disorganized and the defenders shattered. And one lost Soviet unit. Which unit will USSR destroy?

I hope it does arrive eventually. I got my emails, this time. I got a few mails a lot later. And, I think, one or so I never got but that time my ally got it.

Italy:
LND3 (46,53) -> 44,59
LND3 (48,46) -> 45,57

Japan:
LND2 (Sasebo) -> 76,144

Germany:
FTR2 (46,56) -> 43,59
FTR3 (53,56) -> 45,59

The German ATR3 in Port Said reorganize the MIL in Damietta. It then lands in Damietta.

Axis slaughter of Allies continues. When I joined game in spring 40 things looked bleak for Allies, but over the last 7 turns things have only become much worse. At this point I'd give allies maybe a 1% chance to win this game (and I think that's generous). There isn't really any bright spot. USE is poor, CW prod has been hampered for most of the game by lack of oil in Burma & NEI. China was lost with no intervention by SU and relatively few JP losses, Axis losses in France were light, Egypt is lost to excellent axis attacks even while one of the most successful Barb 41's that I've ever witnessed roars through Russia, RN transports obliterated in Red Sea, and on and on. Apart from the continued Axis dismantling of the Allies, as each turn passes I like 1d10 with divisions less and less. I feel it makes the attacker's job even easier.

Soon this game will be like beating on babies with a hammer as the allies' ability to resist dwindles.

CW naval, SU land.

2/3 of the remaining RN transport force sails. Dutch TRS and CW TRS both sail to CSV. One is carrying a 5 range Spitfire, while the other picks up a shorter range FTR from Gib.
From Plymouth: 3xBB to 0 box CSV, 1xBB to 0 box N Atl
CA from Belfast

strat bomb:

CW Halifax sb Breslau 3 factors with +1 to roll, a 9 causes 1 PP loss.

Land move
USSR retreats in west, minor movements in east.
ComChi minor movements, shuffling units in line.


Rebase
USSR moves their planes in west few hexes, bomber to north and fighter to south.
CW Spitfire to Gibraltar (from TRS).

Back to the Axis.

Status: offline 		No declarations of war.

Land: Germany, Japan
Combined: Italy
Naval:

No port strikes. No naval air.

Two Italian battleships, and two heavy cruiser, sail to the Eastern Mediterranean (4-box). They embark the Italian INF div from Palestine, and the PARA from Port Said.

Italy decline naval combat in the Red Sea.

No strategic bombing.

Ground Strikes:

Japan:
1) LND2 (2) in Kirin ground strike the Vladivostok defenders.
2) ART (3) bombard Mao (74,138).

Italy:
1) LND3 (5) strikes Timoshenko, and MECH, in Tula.

Germany:
1) LND2 (5) bomb hex 52,60. See Picture.

USSR can intercept the German LND2 with one FTR2 (3). Axis can counter-intercept with one FTR2 (6). Will the Soviet fighter intercept?
