Axis stay for a dogfight, is Nimrod ready for a glory?
Nah, the Nimrod aces return to their carrier for refuelling, rest, and recuperating.

Aces? Have they shot down any planes during the war??? If they shot down my FW Condor, no need to reply [:@]
Since they were not responsible for that accomplishment I decided to respond.

Here are the finest moments for the Nimrod aces.

OK, they had their moments. Every plane counts, even Italians [;)]

No offence to Italians, I still need their help!

Would you like advance with ENG or hold your positions? This impulse there is no counter attack because everyone are OOS.

I don't know much about the 1d10, but the Japanese attack in the north was 20:4, but I see 3-1 odds. 4 goes into 20 five times, so should it not be 5-1? Is 3-1 the highest odds in 1d10?
Conflict with the unexpected: two qualities are indispensable; first, an intellect which, even in the midst of this obscurity, is not without some traces of inner light which lead to the truth; second, the courage to follow this faint light. KvC

Storm reduces the odds by two columns. On 2d10 it would have been -4 to the attack.

Stormy weather is the answer to the 3:1 odds instead of 5:1.

If assault is 10:1 or blitz 7:1, attack is automatic.

Just wait and see when Italian unit is in same hex with Rommel

-Italians: That's a nice looking medal, how did you get that?
-Rommel: Well, it was during the WWI when I was fighting against you guys in mountains and we kicked your ass...

True story, he liked to tell that story [;)]

No declarations of war.

Land: China
Combined: USSR, USA
Naval: France, CW

CW send the Indian fighter to the 3-box in the Cape St Vincent.

CW send one convoy point from Aden to the East Med. (Putting Malta and Alexandria in supply)

A TRS on Malta sail out to the West Med. Will Axis try and intercept?

I am available for most of the day and evening. Although then I must get past my annoyance with the convoy routing system. If I do not then I suspect I might not be available at all.

If we can't get this to work - and frankly I am jiggered if I know how to get those 3 build points to France - then do we just reduce the Axis build points by the same number that the Allies cannot get (but are entitled to under the rules of the game)?
