Sure. We search. Use the worst SUB to initiate.

Subs dive deep and combat is over.

I think US FTR2 in Newfoundland cannot be more important this turn than if it would have flown to box 0 at first possible moment...

On contraire, they have had a nice vacation from the war, and been helping archaeologists' prove that Vikings never reached America. No traces from air that any Vikings ever reached America. Nothing could ever be more important than that.

I need to wait word from JJ as China is OOS that might cause some ground strikes there. I continue tomorrow.

Meanwhile I can post CW ground strikes in France, 5 hexes in north and 3 hexes in south, 1 plane each. Picture shows remaining Allied planes capable intercepting.

Do you open game to check situation or should I add ground units from each hex?

We will open the game to check, and a break is good as I think I need to consult with the German player before responding to the onslaught.

EXT. SKIES OVER FRANCE - 1944 - DAY

The symphony of Allied aircraft fills the air. A formation of WELLINGTON bombers, THYPHOON ground-attack planes, TEMPEST fighters, and MOSQUITO fast bombers dominates the sky. The roar of the planes made soldiers from both sides look at the sky.

INT. ALLIED WELLINGTON BOMBER - COCKPIT - DAY

Flight Lieutenant Carter maintains a determined focus on the controls. Sergeant Johnson prepares the payload.

LIEUTENANT CARTER
(via radio)
Steady as she goes, everyone.

EXT. GERMAN AND ITALIAN POSITIONS - FRANCE - 1944 - DAY

Soldiers below scramble as the distinct growl of engines fills the air. Flak bursts forth, but the combined might of the WELLINGTONS, TYPHOONS, TEMPESTS, and MOSQUITOS rain down a barrage of destruction.

INT. ALLIED MOSQUITO FAST BOMBER - COCKPIT - DAY

Flying at a breakneck pace, Flight Officer Ramirez maneuvers deftly through the chaos, targeting key enemy positions.

FLIGHT OFFICER RAMIREZ
(focused)
Almost there, steady...

EXT. GERMAN AND ITALIAN POSITIONS - FRANCE - 1944 - DAY

The ground erupts as bombs hit, engulfing the area in CHAOS and FIRE. The air quakes from the force of the explosions. Nothing could have survied that....

There was a dance on the skies with no casualties. Suddenly Typhoons clear through and launch their rockets on German formation and Allies fly back home.
