I just thought of a further option we could have done with the 3-box. Fly Me-110 as fighter and use surprise points to increase air to air to hopefully shoot down another CVP. Oh well!

Do the Luftwaffe wish to ground strike with the Ju-88 this impulse or save it for ground support? Me-109 doesn't need committing until after the Allies decide whether to intercept.

Status: offline 		HQ reorganization phase is tricky. If I try to protect myself from counter attack I reorganize Stuka and Bf109. If I want to try attack Gibraltar this turn I do nothing, take land next impulse and reorganize 4 land units.

I think I choose safe option and try to hold current positions. Italy should bring their NAV from Bay of Biscay at the end of turn to southern Spain. We need to clear Cape St. Vincent before attacking Gibraltar. Mean while I have time to move MIL to attack and retreat with ARM units.

Agree on Italian Nav.

If they did counter the odds would be pretty low as I presume you have about 17 points in the hex. Allies have used most of their available shore bombardment and air support.

Status: offline 		FYI: The hex adjacent to the Gibraltar hex with the CW 1-4 INF div. in it is handy to have...you can put your best two ARTY there (plus a corp so it cant be invaded) to ground strike the units in Gibraltar.

Edit: Just the 6 factor Spit II in Gib.

Edit: Italians can also shoot it down if they really want that

Status: offline 		German plans for the impulse:

Germany chooses combined

German fleet from Bordeaux to Bay of Biscay box 4.

If we put Gibraltar OOS, then I might ground strike. If Gibraltar is in supply, I do it next impulse when I have fighters there.

Germany rails MTN from Warsaw to Seville.

Germany uses all 6 moves to make good attack in south against Spanish isolated units. German units can do it alone, Italy can choose naval if they want. After this attack it is time to focus on Gibraltar...
