Just a clarification first. As I understand it Axis did not spend a offensive chit at this point.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

No O-chit this impulse.

Through the rain squalls both sides think they get glimpses of enemy ships or possibly their own but they vanish into the murk before positive identification can be made. Searches: Axis 4, Allies 3. No combat.

Finally, Cape St. Vincent.

Hipper goes hunting for the convoys.

The Axis don't add any further air. CW can send Spitfire, Beaufighter or Swordfish to the 1-box, Gladiator to the 0-box, Harrow to 2-box and Blenheim to 3-box. How about the CW?

Gladiator and Swordfish to the 0-box.

Leaving the more modern aircraft available to come to Gibraltar's aid, the old guard take to the skies to defend the Merchant Marine.

Searches: Axis 5, Allies 4. No combat.

German artillery ground strikes Gibraltar, while Me-110's act as fighter-bombers and go for the CW HQ's. They are escorted by and Me-109. Does the Spitfire wish to defend the HQ's?

I think the search was Axis 5, Allies 4.

[Orm]

Does the Spitfire wish to defend the HQ's?

Yes.

My mistype. Original post amended.

[AllenK]

While forming up to attack the Me-110's, the Spitfires are bounced by the Me-109's, with unfortunate results.

[AllenK]

Artillery ammo doesn't seem to have improved much.

[AllenK]

The Me-110's do a good job, however.

Germany rails Inf div from Paris to Sevilla.

Italy rails Garr from Rome to Taranto.

Japan rails Terauchi south of Wuhan.

Central China post Japanese moves (the north remained static).

[AllenK]

Italy move a Mil in Italy and it's over to Mayhemizer to pick up the rest of the Axis impulse.

It will take about 3 hours until I get online.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Germany declares 26:2 automatic attack in Cadiz close to Gibraltar.

Japan declares 13:4 attack adjacent to Changsha against 14th Inf.

Japanese NAV gives 1 point of ground support. No ground support or shore bombardment in Spain.

CW can send planes for ground support. Italian fighter can intercept. Is is too bad weather to fly?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Assault or Blitz in China?

[warspite1]

I am afraid you have made a colossal mistake. This is the South African 2nd Division commanded by MajorGeneral HB Klopper. If you want to see what these guys can do, just look at the siege of Tobruk June 1942

Be afraid.... be very afraid....

[warspite1]

I'll give Ormster 5 mins. If no answer then I will give my orders on his behalf.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

CW is too scared of Italian mighty pilots!

Due to huge losses recently the RAF undergoes a reorganization that prevents them from launching missions at this point.
