Have we enough surprise points to avoid combat if only the 1 box is chosen?
I make it Allies 3+1 = 4, Axis 5+2 = 7. Difference is 3 points, so not enough.

You forget the +1 for the Italian naval bomber. Axis is 5+2+1 = 8.

Okay, thanks, I wasn't sure whether it was the modified or unmodified search roll.

Include the 4-box only and let's see if a CA can be sent back to port, thanks.

The Italians decline air combat and go for guns.

That's okay. It can't be any worse than my E-mailing Orm by mistake with the Italian and Japanese plans for the impulse.
"D'Oh".

How will Italy assign the abort. Or aborts?

Pick a Trans for the first abort. If it survives, put the second one on it as well. If not, then put it on the other Trans, thanks.

The new search rolls is a 10 for the Allies and a 5 for Axis. No combat.
CW abort the CA to Gibraltar.
Where will Italy abort the TRS?

Oh well, like with the land attack on the ART in China, sometimes a target is just too juicy to ignore - and those TRS were juicy. Let's hope the Littorios have trouble raising steam......
