Will Hitler Trump All?

AA screened only 1, so Canberra damaged. Allies abort zone to Gib.

Now West Med. Support?

You have two points. Allies forced naval air and flew their CVP as bomber.

How to use these points?

Allied AA screened 2, Axis 1.

This is some sort of bug. One factor gets through for the Allies, which should be an abort on the Abruzzi, which was successful. The game thinks it's not an abort for some reason. Assuming you concur, will the Axis stay in the zone?

Not sure I understand things correct. But if I do, then I think MWIF is correct.

- Axis gets no air to sea though the AA. Thus we can not use points to increase the damage on Allied ships. It is not allowed to increase a 'zip' result.
- It seems the surprise points were used to decrease damage on Axis ships which is the only thing they could be used for.
- 1 point in naval air gets reduced to nothing at all.

[Orm]

- Allies has 3 points in naval air.
- AA reduce it to two points.
- Weather halves the 2 points to one point in naval air.
- And the surprise points take care of that.

If I am correct, and nothing gets aborted. Then Axis stays for another round.

[NatRapsEno]

MWIF is correct. My mistake. I forgot about the rain which halved the CVP to only 1 factor getting through.

Abruzzi is not aborted. Will the Allies stay in the zone?

[Orm]

No idea about the Allies. Axis stay.

Miss round II.

USSR continues to shuffle forces and retreat from border.

Turn ends on a 3 (1-7 to end).

No time for partisans now. Germany move the best marker to offence, and place both markers on offence.
