Well that could have been better - could have been worse. I achieved what I wanted to in Gibraltar although would have been nice to get a hit on one of those Infantry Corps. I just hope that the limitations of a combined does not come back and bite the CW on the bum.

More concerning is the China situation thanks to the loss of Changsha. I hope my move back into the mountains meets with your approval - the Chinese units are such low value - even in mountains they are in trouble in single stacks.

I couldn't think of anything in particular to do with the Americans that can't wait for an impulse or two.

The Americans are sending out their convoys to transport build points and oil to France and CW. Latest US entry options allows US convoy points to be used for this purpose.

Of course it could have been better, or worse. It can always be better, or worse. [:D]

But it was good enough. [:)]

Well the north is going to receive good weather - but the Japanese are largely disorganised so we can hold here - at least for the present.

In the south we try and maintain the mountain positions, falling back gradually - once clear of the mountains we are screwed.

But in the North the attack might continue next turn. The lines needs to be reorganized or reinforced. Or do we fall back?

On the positive side is that Japan has not all that many units there either.

Do you refer to the weather?

Only 50% chance of bad weather so that give the probability that the Axis gets fine weather to 100%. [;)]

This is unduly pessimistic. The probability was no higher than 99%. [:)]

Yes, of course you are right.

However, I am currently feeling somewhat pessimistic so I rounded it.

So what is the plan Ormster. I know you dislike ending the turn so I take it at least one power will have a go?

Got your e-mail. Yes - that was a shame, regardless of the intention. Never mind, onwards and upwards.

I'll get my orders over shortly.

Or I could complete the first part and you the second? Not that I expect much action. Either way I would prefer if you handled the end of turn roll and if we are unlucky the new weather roll.
