The Allies do not initiate combat in any other sea area.

Will Germany initiate combat in the North Sea. And if so which U-Boat will they use?

No to the North Sea and yes to the Eastern Mediterranean. I use Bari to make the search - her crew have been eating lots of carrots for the purpose.

Italy rolls a two while CW rolls a four.

So Italy has four surprise points. Want to use them to choose naval combat type or save them for later? Naval air combat is a likely choice unless you spend the points here.

Do the Allies have any aircraft that can reach other than the Nimrod fighter?

Naval air combat it is then.

Will you spend any surprise points in order to affect the air combat?

There will be an opportunity to spend surprise points later that affect AA columns and combat tables.

You don't remember September by Earth Wind and Fire?

It was a song all about a little port in Eastern Cyrenaica.

No, I was not a Earth Wind and Fire fan when I was young.

So Bardia it is then?

The carrier plane has done its duty and land on HMS Eagle to be ready for next engagement.

Will the Italians abort or should we search again?

The Italian light cruiser Diaz find the enemy fleet. In a show of defiance the cruiser close in on the British battleships.

(CW decline to select naval air combat)

The cruiser charge towards HMS Nelson and survive the enemy fire long enough to fire her guns and manage to get a couple of hits on the battleship.

CW suffer one 'abort' and assign HMS Nelson to take the result that is saved with a roll of '4'.

The Italian cruise suffer one 'destroy' and one 'damage' and save both!!!

Yes - I will stay until the bitter end. I will be off line so please take whatever actions you need, but basically the Italians are going nowhere until they lose their last ship.

Italy roll a four and CW roll a two so a new round of combat begins with to few surprise points to alter anything. CW decline air combat so a sea combat begins.

CW suffer one damaged BB and one damaged cruiser.

Two more rounds of combat occurred before the search rolls missed. But CW selected air combat both times with the CVP as a fighter so nothing at all happened. Italy did not have the four surprise points needed to change this.

No strategic bombing.

CW ground strikes the German Army in Brussels. Germany can intercept with 6 fighters. CW can counter intercept with one. Will Germany intercept the bomber?

If the bomber clears will Germany fire the AA gun against the bomber?
