Does CW want to send any bombers for ground support?

At this point I can tell that I forgot Germany chose combined and they can't reorganize more than 2 units. I think I just have to Gibraltar...

According to my calculations fractional odds is .333, anyone agree?

Combined: CW

HMS Furious and HMS Glorious launch their Swordfish bombers for an attack on the Italian port La Spezia. The Nimrods are on standby if the bombers call for assistance.

Will Italy intercept with their fighters?

Worst die, out of 5, used for AA fire. Dies rolled: 1, 8, 7, 2, 1

Question 1: Should the roll '3' result in a bottomed or sunk transporter?

Question 2: What target suffers the 'D' result?

Status: offline 		Question 1: This is going to depend on whether the defence factor should be rounded before the comparison to the die roll. The criteria is the die roll must be less than or equal to half the defence factor for the X result. Half of 5 is 2.5 so a 3 would be more than half but if the defence factor is rounded to 3, the X stands.

Question 2: D to the Littorio.

Thank you.

Then this might clarify question 1. It says rounding before.

2.6 Fractions
....
Round off a number immediately before:
• calculating an odds ratio; or
• looking the number up in a table; or
• comparing it to a dice roll or to a fixed value; or
• spending oil (see 13.5.1) or build points.
