Picture from Sep/Oct '41 Impulse #7 (Allies) - DOW

Air action for Commonwealth, naval for Free France.

Intercept the port strike? And fire AA if bombers get thru?

Yes, the FTR2 intercepts, and the stronger (4) AA fires. The other AA fire on the next raid. Thank you.

Axis have surprise points. How to use?

Always avoid combat when there is a port strike and that option is available.

Roger, will do

The Axis find with points in Arabian Sea, how to proceed.

Pick 4 box only, use 2 points to reduce aa to - and remaining points to increase damage, results on Neptune and then Leander and then Sydney.

Effects shown for Allies. Second round searches missed.

Alexander reorganizes 4 bombers in England. Turn sent.

Impulse #8 (Axis)

Germany makes 8 attacks in USSR, and one in France. Rundstedt (HQA) provides HQ support. Three bombers fly support to the same attack (13 points). One Rumanian bomber support the assault on Odessa (2 points).

The only Soviet bomber can add defensive support to 6 of the German 8 attacks. Will the Soviet bomber aid any of the defenders?

Save sent.
