Do I get it right if I intercept with the Chinese fighter and both CW?

Yes indeed.
Fun. [:)] Some air action during the winter.

After some intense air combat in the sky over London the German bombers voluntary abort after they have been left without fighter support. But the cost for RAF has been high.

The air combat above Kweiyang was a bloody affair for both sides but the bomber was cleared to the target.

The bombing of Kweiyang was a success despite the brave effort from the Chinese pilots.

There is a 50/50 chance of the turn ending if all powers pass. There is little reason not to try and the turn ends on a 3.

There are no US Entry options for the US to choose so we go straight into Production etc.

Ormster old china, can I have your End of Turn requirements please?

No declarations of war.

Japan take a land impulse. Euro-Axis take combined.

No Port Strikes. No naval air.

Germany send a U-boat to the central Atlantic. Italy send their submarines to the Caribbean Central Atlantic and Cape St. Vincent.

Germany begin the searches with the Central Atlantic and finds on a die roll of one. Unfortunately for the CW convoy the Allied roll was a 10. Germany use 4 surprise points to reduce all the damage taken and use the remainder of the surprise points to increase the damage done to the convoy. With no convoy points remaining in the sea area the question now is whether the two CW escorts will remain in the sea area or abort (Axis stay)?

I thought the Axis might elect to save up their nice position on the Initiative track for the crucial summer campaign by having the Allies go first. Risks losing an impulse of re-deployment in the winter, and good campaign season in the North Monsoon zone, but helps maximizes chances for a double move over the summer of 41, or an extra impulse for the Axis in the fall of 41, either of which can be the one kick they need while smashing up the Russian house of cards.

somewhat odd how the program breaks 5 Convoy Points into 4 Convoy counters though they would count as 3 targets on the CRT

The program didn't break down the convoy points in separate counters because it was no need to do so. There already was 4 convoy counters in the sea area.
