£24.95 for that one - how much is that in Drachmas?

As long as you hold the fuel points Joc, you should be able to squeeze long life out of China!! Nice line formed. Might I suggest having a couple of corps dig in the rocks that have a road? The hex three steps northwest of Sian for example...

That plus you have the start-of-war squads for the USA defenders (and likely no USMC there at all). If these were '43 or '44 squads the firepower ratio would be very different.

I´m not sure about that. Don´t dare light even the slightest glimmer of hope regarding China. Supply is dwindling already...and once its out all my units will become useless. [:(]
Its a good idea to start digging in but I don´t have any troops to spare. Everything is currently committed. I have a 250 AV Corp in reserve at Lanchow. That is it! [X(]

Jocke,
If you can sneak an avd onto a undeveloped island around the celebes sea later u can fly in a pby. Jp recon will not pickup the ship in a zero port unless he target recons the hex. Then use urdestroyers to disrupt his transports. Hard for the betties to hit a 35 speed ship.
