Annoyed now that the SUB stayed out of it. Made a count on how many surprise points that were needed for it to be worthwhile. And then thought 'Nah.. that is never going to happen'.

Going to try to achieve something. So naval air combat. Use two surprise points to lower the allied air to air rating by one.

Eliminate the AA fire (2 points?).

And then use the remaining points to increase the damage done.

And then target the CV Furious.

No combat on East Med (Allies 7, axis 5.)

Italians can initiate combat on CSV is they want to. CW can send NAV to box 0.

That was a unlikely result in Bay of Biscay.

Not that I am complaining.

Plz, send IT FTR2 to the North hex and GE 4-str FTR2 to the South hex. Target bomber, return to starting hex if survive.

both SU FTRs counter. Stay after 1st round? Combats will be -1/+1 at Kiev and -2/+2 in south.

Edit:
I heard from Axis to stay. In the north air combat 1st round both miss.
2nd round Ax score DA, allies choose FTR to abort.
Al score DC but nothing to clear.
Red Air Force decides to stay another round. Red Air bomber also aborted.

2nd also has 7 winterized units and Zhukov in the attack as well as a 3-2 AA.

But I have one question which may cause me to include different units in the north attack (2-4 MOTDIV instead of 2-3 INFDIV). If SU calls blitz and takes a loss will the first loss be winterized or motorized? ty.

Also GE/IT will have a lot of planes that can commit. I don't think SU can fly any planes at all to the attacked hexes so Axis can decide about air support if you want to. There is also a 5-2 ART to the northwest of the south attacked hex that can fire.

First loss would be motorized.

Priority order for first loss are as follows:

1) ENG
2) Motorized
3) Winterized

Sorry image for southern attack is now corrected (I edited the post). Also if you are ok with it I'll determine order of losses for Axis based on logic if you are asleep (i.e. 11pm-7am Stockholm time) - but if not it's ok too I'll just wait.

Since no USSR planes could intervene, GE Send LND2 Ju 87r to southern combat hex (return 53,55 one hex SE) and LND3 Ju88A1 to Northern hex (return 48,53 one hex west of 4-4 MTN). Gar, Mot Div, loss order.

Ok, Zhukov will commit - I just realized that is before GS phase but I think you probably knew he was going to commit anyway. If you would have flown diff planes we can go back. AA will not fire in the attack in the south.

South combat, SU chose blitz with odds around +8 (I can't tell exact odds with winterized). Roll 12, result */B with attacker half flipped. SU flips INF,MOT,MTNDIV,HQA and does not advance into hex. Result sends the 3 defenders to reinforcement for next turn.

Combat north of Kiev SU will also call blitz.

North combat is more successful. SU will advance into the hex.
