I'm waiting reply from AllenK to make sure did not want to move certain units or make land attacks.

Mean while I go on as this one needs few decisions before we can roll land combat rolls...

Germany declares 17:26 attack against Gibraltar.

Does CW want to use def shore bombardment? CW can fire up to 15 points.

Other things that may affect to attack are:
-Italians can provide 7 points shore bombardment.
-Germany has two artillery units and they can provide 7 points ground support.
-Germany has Bf109 (6 points to air to air combat, 1 point to ground support).
-CW has Spanish HQ in Gibraltar.
-CW has 2 bombers, total of 5 points ground support.
-CW has Spitfire (6 points to air to air combat).

All ships in Cape St Vincent, except Provence and HMS Revenge, provide shore bombardment. (9 points)

No attacking shore bombardment.

Does CW want to use Spanish HQ for defending HQ support?

Two German artillery fires total of 7 points ground support.

Bf109 stays on ground waiting for possible Allied bombers.

Does CW send any planes?

No, I am good.

If this attack is below 1:1 in odds then MWIF might use wrong fractional odds (remember the bug you found) so I suggest that we check if the result is reasonable.

So if I have this right the odds - regardless of what happens now - cannot be better for Germany than 1:1 no modifiers - is that right?

Final odds, I believe it is assault?

How much fractional odds should be? My guess is (24-35/2)/35 = 6,5/35 = 0,186 or should I round that half at some point?

Unless I missed something the odds will be 24:35 with no modifiers. So, yes, best for Germany is 1:1 with no modifier.

You are right. Rock will stand this attack, but not the next one [;)]

0,186 is what I get as well. And no, that half point should not be rounded.

If the roll is in that neighbourhood then we can ask for verification. Ok?

Edit: CW go with assault.

Game gave very different fractional odds, but roll was so high it does not matter.

Job well done! I can always count on Wehrmacht, Luftwaffe not so much.

German INF div is destroyed. Who takes CW loss?

(Game rolled even better for Germans, 052 fractional and 10 land combat)

I just realized French ship is not allowed to provide shore bombardment because there is Spanish unit in Gibraltar. I had to reload from debark because I forgot to land two Japanese units to Canton as AllenK instructed.

Germany rebases Hungarian fighter to Malaga.

Rundstedt reorganizes attacking units (2x artillery, INF and MIL).

Turn does not end (10 rolled).

And weather stays nice in Gibraltar as promised.
