  1. Corrections:
    1. My Medium Bombers cannot land in Bavaria. They instead land in Western Germany.

    2. The Coastal Submarine moves off the coast of Scotland, directly south.

  2. Great move to counter Paris fallen with minimal Kriegsmarine vessels. Possibly too many British units in N. England and the HOME Fleet on the wrong side of the island led to an opportunity to attack London. Paris now London. The battle has begun.

  3. Awsome turn. I thought the axis were doomed after the liberation of Paris and the Russian transport primed to take Tokyo but this was some smart thinking. I completely forgot about the Spanish alignment rule regarding London, and having that transport based out of neutral Spain was great since now you've got a decent German Mediterranean squadron at safe harbor in Croatia. Hopefully some German support will get those Italians to declare war, I've seen too many YT wars where they sit it out!

  4. I didn’t know the 2 victory points for France being at war with a major power were permanent once gained for a single turn. It seems like the rules could be read either way. I presume you guys confirmed that is what was intended with game designers?

    I thought that like the Spanish Civil War point or Abyssinia point, no victory points are permanently gained in v4.
