Right, AllenK is not around but has said he will take a chance and not intercept the 11-ship force (which he knows to contain the TRS and GARR (from last nights picture)).

As I can't save the game at this stage I will continue on the basis that he does not want to intercept the TRS.

The transport continues onto Cagliari, leaving its three escorts in the 0-box.

The next Italian naval move is a convoy moving into the West Med. Do the CW wish to intercept this time?

Dumb question: What is the number or hyphen in parentheses under each of the units in the picture? The unparenthesized number is the sea zone, but I have no clue as to what the parenthesized number is.

I am sure I could look it up, but I am posting this because I suspect others might not know what that number is either, and could benefit from being told. (Also, I am lazy. )

It must be fine weather, or there'd be a search modifier for being in the 3 box.

Search roll? Do you mean invasion modifier? If it were a search roll modifier (which would be useful), the Axis NAVs would have a modifier.

Italy

An Italian cruiser initiates combat. a 5-strength fighter flies to the 0-box. Three NAV and one LND join them - as does a German LND.

The CW have available:

a FTR - 0-box
a FTR - 1-box
a LND - 2-box
a LND - 2-box (or 3 with extended range)
a ATR - 2-box

I'm not sure how the Boston is in supply but....

What do the CW wish to do?

Round 1

Allies - 6 (DX) - The Italians decide to lose the NAV (the pilot survives)
Axis - 14 (AA) - Where does the Hurricane abort to? If applicable shall I say from whence it came?

Edit: Never mind. Just seen the next die roll.

I've no idea how this works so will roll 10 dice and this will be taken in strict order.

5
10
4
7
6
5
7
10
8
4

Looks like its the highest of 1 so there are 5 points. One aircraft is aborted and the background is Italian so I abort the lowest air to sea factors.

Assume its 13 points vs 6 bombers = 1/1. 5 points = 1 land based air aborted

That leaves the attack as follows:
