I have an Italian submarine standing on the hex saying "To the Atlantic Axis Only (1 turn)". I figured that meant I need to be on that tile and wait one turn and then the sub will be place on the other side. But nothing happens.

Do I have to control Gibraltar otherwise I'll never be able to cross over?

Thanks, I went to take a look, and sure enough the start positions of the event were wrong (I'm playing the 653H campaign). So I copied the full text of that event from the loop.txt "1939 Storm over Europe" campaign (with the correct positions), saved it, exited the game, reloaded and then completed the turn, but still nothing.

OK, that explains why. I should have taken note of the hex positions in the original loop file, now I will have to find them by trial and error
