If, for some reason, Denmark would enter the war they will align with CW, and place their ships as follows:

2 SCS + CP -> Frederikshavn
5 CP -> Reykjavik

Ships fleeing ports will try to sail to the following safe ports:
CA Peder Skram -> Scapa Flow
CA Niels Juel + CPs -> Belfast

Can we, please, remove the Carpet Bombing option from both games? I am already annoyed with clicking past that step.

Besides that, i dislike it because it is a option that lacks any historic foundation, and some other reasons.

No need for editing. It can be turned off within the game. I think it is by just right clicking on the option in the options form.

I can do it in both games.

Thank you.

Oh, never had to do that. Guess I am use to editing when you have started a game and the options are greyed out and cannot be changed without editing. It's been a while.

I've subscribed to the the 2 AAR threads but the email notifications don't come through meaning delays in my response times. Is there an online chat that that you guys use that can be used for prompts like gmail, WhatsApp etc?
