Turn 7. Sep/Oct 1940. Axis #3. (Concluded).

1/19/21, 3:25 PM - [Axis]: <Media omitted>
1/19/21, 3:25 PM - [Allied]: copy
1/19/21, 3:55 PM - [Allied]: aborted French CA relocated, which puts him out of supply. :(
1/19/21, 3:55 PM - [Allied]: Better be careful what I ask for ...
1/19/21, 3:56 PM - [Axis]: HaHa
1/19/21, 3:55 PM - [Allied]: <Media omitted>
1/19/21, 3:57 PM - [Allied]: He should be in supply in fine weather in the Med? Right?
1/19/21, 3:58 PM - [Allied]: or snow?
1/19/21, 3:58 PM - [Allied]: just not rain or storm?
1/19/21, 3:58 PM - [Axis]: I would think so
1/19/21, 3:59 PM - [Allied]: Well, the RN didn't want the Free French clogging up their facilities at the major port of Port Said.
1/19/21, 3:59 PM - [Allied]: But don't tell de Gaulle that. Not sure he even caries about the navy?
1/19/21, 3:59 PM - [Axis]: Understand. Although I'm not sure he will be in supply there because of the desert
1/19/21, 4:00 PM - [Axis]: Even in fine weather
1/19/21, 4:00 PM - [Allied]: Guess we'll find out.
1/19/21, 4:00 PM - [Allied]: oil can trace to him though ... so will be able to unflip him
1/19/21, 4:00 PM - [Allied]: oil through the Red Sea
1/19/21, 4:00 PM - [Axis]: My mistake
1/19/21, 4:01 PM - [Axis]: I was thinking only Cairo
1/19/21, 4:01 PM - [Axis]: He can trace to Alexander for only 3 hexes
1/19/21, 4:01 PM - [Axis]: in fine weather
1/19/21, 4:02 PM - [Axis]: Will be afk about 15 minutes
1/19/21, 4:02 PM - [Allied]: right ... so fine weather he will be in supply. But not snow. Of not rain or stoms.
1/19/21, 4:03 PM - [Allied]: Ok. I'm going to take a break for dinner, cocktail, etic. CW will do a naval so I will have to spend some time making the moves. Will try to get through with them this evening. I suspect we could have some action in the North Sea and West Med. But can handle that when the time comes (i.e., this evening or tomorrow).
1/19/21, 4:04 PM - [Allied]: talk to you later, if not this evening then tomorrow.
1/19/21, 4:05 PM - [Allied]: Though ... a question for you when you get back. I assume you'll want to intercept the remnants of the Greek navy fleeing the Italian Coast? If so, who do you wish to flip for the intercept?
1/19/21, 4:06 PM - [Allied]: CA Fiume?
1/19/21, 4:17 PM - [Axis]: Yes. but flip a BB
1/19/21, 4:43 PM - [Allied]: Also if 1 or both CPs get through they
1/19/21, 4:43 PM - [Allied]: they'll try to make it through the West Med and into the CSV.
1/19/21, 4:43 PM - [Allied]: Intercept them in the West Med (if applicable)? If so, flip who?
1/19/21, 4:45 PM - [Axis]: flip fighter in West med
