41 JA EOT (allies):
prelim plan:
CH: 2
FF: 0
US: 20+2(saved) = 22
SU: 17 incl using 1 saved oil at Leningrad for production
CW prod seems messed up. Here are resource flows:
6: India(2),S.A/Rhodesia(3),BelgianCongo(1) flow around Africa through CVB/CSV then 1 thru BoB & 5 thru N Atl/FG.
2: Dutch/British Guyana flow thru C Atl/NAtl/FG.
2: Venezuela flow thru Carib/USEC/NAtl/FG.
6: Canada flow thru USEC/NAtl/FG
That should be 16 res going into UK + 2 native there +1 synth. This should allow full prod for CW (provided 1 oil from venezuela is used along with 1 US lent oil to fuel Canadian fact). It should also allow saving 2 oil in UK each turn.
However when I assign resources as described above CW only gets 19 PP. I suspect CW has been shorted on other turns with regard to saved oil. I feel this game is basically done anyway so it's probably not worth correcting but if we get into late war years and game is still going then we probably would need to correct this by giving CW some saved oil in Britain.
Also game is not allowing me to save the 2 NEI oil available now since embargo is in place to their same hex (tarakan, balipapan) - not sure why since NEI is CW aligned nation. I can work around this by burning this oil though.
Anyway CW is at 19 and can be corrected to 22 during build phase if all players agree.
SaS:
CW left out a few escorts in 1 and 4 boxes various sz's.
RTB: CW sent TRS with FTR to St Helena, TRS empty to Liverpool, TRS empty to Aden. Most ships went to Liverpool, Gib, Aden. Small TF's led by CVL each went to Plymouth, Scapa.
Oil use
USSR reorg all (1,5) using 2 oils in Persia that cannot be saved
CW reorg all (5.3) using Balikpapan, Yenangyaung, and 3 saved from: Port of Spain, Quebec, Quebec
FF reorg all (.1) using Quebec
US reorg all (.65) using idle oil in 60,305
====================
re: Axis oil reorg:
Vichy France:
2 x CA in Dakar, CP in Dakar, TRS, and CP in Togo, are reorganized for 0 oil (0.4). The BB Lorraine, and the CP in the West Med should have been reorganized last turn. Could this be fixed? Only the two BBs in Marseilles should remain disorganized.
I think I can possibly fix this. But maybe let's wait a turn or two - will it matter? Maybe Vichy France will have enough time to let all their units reorg without spending oil anyway? But if it will really matter let me know and I can try to fix.
====================

Reinf:
CW:
Spit VB->London
Hurricane IIB->Coventry
Harrow->Coventry

US:
Hornet->San Diego
6-3->Philadelphia
SU:
D-town MIL to SE of D-town
Pe-8 to Stalingrad

IL-4 and TB-3 to Leningrad
4-3 INF to Archangel
2x 7-4 INF and 3-2 AT gun to Voronezh
3-2 AA gun to Rostov
2-3 AA gun to Stalino
Lending:
CW modifies agreement with SU to 2 BP instead of 2 res.
=======================
I modified file to send the 1 oil from NEI to Canberra and had gone far enough that it would have taken awhile to go back. So I left the 1 oil in Canberra. We can pretend it's not there. Or if CW is able to send another before war with JP then we'll just set the oil to idle instead of actually sending it to compensate.
=======================
There appears to be a Gladiator cvp stuck in Liverpool. It can't be selected and shows up as an empty box on the unit window (see attached pic). Anyone know how to "unstick" it so it can be used?
=======================
SO 41 init both roll 10. Since it's +1 allies allies win init and choose to go 1st.
Weather roll is 3 fine everywhere.
