@FMErwinRommel:

Forgot to NCM a bomber.  One bomber from Japan did not participate in combat because it was to fly to Burma.  I realize that this request is after you took your turns, so I don’t have the right to ask, but would D.A. and S.A. allow edit of Japan to NCM bomber from Japan to Burma?

I doubt my allies will have an issue.  I’ll try to edit it on Russia’s turn if I get the chance.

Edit your russian turn who cares.

[FMErwinRommel]

Very sorry about your incomplete German move Dawg, but Rus would of had to undo a combat move to accommodate you.  My move doesn’t affect anything that the allies did on their turn.

I forgot the Japanese bomber edit apologies, by all means do it.

ALSO - ***** NEWS FLASH *****
SEEING THE COLOSSAL WASTE OF HUMAN LIFE ABOUT TO OCCUR IN PERSIA - Russia has flown in a 4 member CRISIS NEGOTIATION TEAM to attempt to mitigate a lasting peace and understanding between UK/USA and Japan for atleast 1 round.

At an earlier time RUSSIA offered to publicly acknowledge that it’s understanding of the Japanese Empire, would be one that included Persia under a Japanese flag.  Japan REBUFFED this offer, and to this day rebuke’s it by retaining a HOSTILE FORCE in Sikang.  If the Hostile Force is removed from the border, Russia could then consider alternative narratives.

FOR NOW - we talk peace gentlemen! :)

[Desert_Admiral]

Who thought?  Stalin the peacemaker.

[FMErwinRommel]

My apologies to the Russians.  We have kept to the de-militarization agreement from China to the Pacific except for this one oversight.  We wish that you would have brought this to our attention earlier.  We will pull back the offending unit in Sikang.  Sadly, we cannot delay the attack on Persia, as it would just continue the buildup of forces and thus increase the final casualties.  We do not wish to shed Russian blood.  Please remove your fighters from supporting the capitalist imperialists by editing your turn within the next 36 hours, or they will be caught up in the battle.  I have social activities and other commitments scheduled for all day tomorrow, so I won’t be able to take my turn until I study the map on Sunday morning.  The presence of the Russian ftrs reduces my chance of victory from overwhelming to just favorable, but there can be no further delay in the westward march.

[Gargantua]

Russia sends negotiatiors in PEACE! and Japan talks of WAR?!?!

It’s too late!  The planes have already flown in.  We TRUST our HONORABLE Japanese FRIENDS will reconsider.

[FMErwinRommel]

Dare I suggest that the Russians take advantage of the military situation, to conquer their age old foe the Turks, and give the Axis a sporting chance of survival.

[FMErwinRommel]

The Russian marti emails were fun to read.  The one-on-one duel in Belarus, each firing their pistols but missing as they slowly walked towards each other.  Until finally, they were so close that they shot each other dead.  Then there was W. Ukr, where everybody missed the first 2 rounds.  And finally, with everything collapsing around them, the Romanian/Italian defeated two Russian tanks (contrary to historical accuracy).
