(1) No units were damaged (i.e., added to the repair pool). The only BP losses were units destroyed.
(2) Butchers bill this turn: (a) China lost 14 BPs, (b) Germany lost 11 BPs and (c) France lost a whopping 21 BPs in units destroyed.

Status: offline 		Turn 4. Mar/Apr 1940. EOT. US Entry.

(1) The US player pulls another chit for the German/Italy entry pool but selects no additional options.
(2) Apparently he has his eyes set on, "Gear Up Production".
(3) He has the necessary tension in both pools but not the entry level in either yet.

(1) Between 4 RPs sent to Italy and 4 PPs lost to CW strategic bombing, German production took it on the chin this turn.
(2) More muttering from the German player.

Status: offline 		(Addendum). Turn 4. Mar/Apr 1940. Western Front. France. Use Oil.

(1) Left this significant point out.
(2) Through German bad luck/poor tactics(?) the French player was able to restore the oil pipeline to Paris and reorg the 2 planes and HQ-I there.

Status: offline 		Don't know what the German player is muttering about. He is at least one turn ahead of normal German advance; Paris looks just about certain to fall in M/J, which is my definition of a successful Case Yellow.

One question for the CW player: Last turn he had 2 CAs (3 point) and 2 CL (1 point) that had to take two A results. He put them on the CAs, not the CLs. I am curious why he did it that.

Well, we don't actually hear anyone muttering except our own self. That's one beauty of PBEM play is that our responses to bad beats can be cooled before we respond as opposed to face-to-face where we don't have that chance.
I was embellishing a bit in the war log narratives based on my inference from some of the messages sent by the German player and how possibly I might have reacted.

Used the handy Excel sort feature to look through CW naval combat for the last two turns. I believe you're referring to combat below, which occurred on turn 3 (JF40), axis impulse 7 and in the Faeroes Gap. I think like you I like to put risks generally on the "least valuable" ships. So personally I'd put the 2A risks on the 2 CLs vs 2 CAs as the CW player did. While I can't speak to the specifics of why the CW player chose the CAs vs CLs, we can look at the odds for both selections (i.e., CAx2 vs CLx2).

(1) Chance of 0 aborts: CAx2=16% & CLx2=4%
(2) Chance of 2 aborts: CAx2=36% & CLx2=64%
(3) Chance of 1 abort: CAx2=48% & CLx2=32%

All I can figure is that he was playing the odds to minimize the chance that both were aborted (possibly)?
