May/Jun '41
Impulse #2 (Axis)

No declarations of war.

Land: Japan
Combined: Germany
Naval: Italy

No Port Strikes. No Naval Air.

Naval Movement:

Italy:
2 Subs St-Nazaire -> CSV 3-box
TRS (3-speed) + 5-3 MIL Las Spezia -> Haifa
Sub Djibouti -> Bay of Bengal 1-box
4 ships Suez -> Arabian Sea 3-box
4 ships Asmara -> Arabian Sea 3-box

Germany:
2 BB + 2 CA + 3 CL -> BoB 4-box

Axis might search in several sea areas. First up is the Bay of Biscay. No Axis air. Will any Allied air be added to BoB?

Later on, we will search in the Arabian Sea. Will Allies fly here?

Use all the points to reduce damage to me. Take D on best defense ship. Then aborts on damaged or best defense available

And stay in BOB. If you find in Arabian Sea, abort zone to Bombay after one round of combat. Any results you get use best defense available or damaged ships for aborts.

The orders for this engagement seems pretty clear. "Get those troop transports".

4 points are used to make it a surface action, and another 3 points to select the French TRS for the X result.

Aborted the three CW cruisers to Liverpool. I hope that works.

Next search is in the Arabian Sea.

One X and one D on the CW cruiser, with the other X on the CP seems best for CW.
