I forgot to move my Soviet forces from Burma to India.

Not a big deal either way, but let me know if I can fix that.

@wheatbeer:

no problem of course

[wheatbeer]

I emailed US combat movements.

Let me know if you prefer tripleA or forum dice for the battle in SZ45 given mass sub involvement.

I am guessing you will want to select OOL round by round either way.

[boldfresh]

Just use forum
