World in Flames - 7

Thursday night we finished the March/April 1940 turn and set up for May/June.  The weather which was unseasonably good over winter turned nasty in the summer.  Paris has fallen, but the French are fighting on.  Meanwhile the USSR has started to build up its forces on the border with Nazi Germany.

 It is going to take some skill to get this right.

At least the Iran issue has been resolved.

The bad weather (the previous impulse ended with rain) 
has provided a much needed breathing space for poor China.  

The Allies are also going first which helps (the Axis tried really hard to go first but failed when demanding a reroll).  The Japanese have used politics to close the Burma Road with the seeming acquiescence of the US Government.

Builds were one infantry corps for the Chinese while the USSR built one each of infantry, motorised and mechanised corps as well as training another batch of pilots.
