That is actually impossible, as I did not reinforce in the BoB you will not be able to initiate there.



jesperpehrson -> RE: GLOBAL WAR COUNTER-FACTUAL (W1/Wilhelm vs rkr1958/jp) (6/13/2020 4:24:33 PM)

Naval combat continued:

CW initiates in the Italian Coast, flipping CA Manchester.
Italy does not commit subs.
Allies rolls 3
Axis rolls 8
CW choses to fight only the 1-box.
CW has 8 surprisepoints.
CW choses to not make it a Naval Air combat.

Initial Italian risk is X D A
Initial CW risk D

CW uses the 8 points to raise Italian risk to 2X D 2A
[img]https://i.imgur.com/tAB5ISt.jpg[/img]


How does Italy wish to distribute the risk?
