Italy tries to intercept...

Italy finds (4-1), but gets only 6 surprise points despite the surprise.

Due to surprise the AA fire is ignored, and all points used to increase damage done. The X goes on the CV, and the aborts ignored.

Italy decide to withdraw. Does France stay? (only affects CP. If aborting what port will the CP seek?)

Edit: I see that the Italian NAV is listed as staying...

Does the Nav abort as well?

I thought it would abort. I think it should according to rules. Might be a bug. No idea how MWIF treats this until I try. I would rather not test, and have to go back if needed.

We could decide to treat the NAV as aborted even if it is not?

Seems odd and it should abort the zone as well. Anyway leave the CP there.

The NAV was aborted.

Now there will be a break before rebases.

This fleet is in the 3-box. Is that correct? If not, carry on with our impulse as if it were in the 4-box?

Germany declares war on Netherlands. How will they place their units?

Short of time now so no pictures. Will roll US entry later as well. Or you could send us a new save with the Dutch units placed.

It's in the 4 box. I was trying to be clever and update the AAR as I went but it doesn't work well when you make a mistake so better to have everything done correctly before posting. It looks like I need to send the right save as well, I will roll and place Dutch with the the CW units in 4 box WM!
