With the loss of 1 PP for food in flames because of no resource from Australia to Great Britain, the CW was able to overcome their CP losses this turn. However, 11 CPs lost (per turn) is not sustainable!

05. May/June 1940. Italy's Surprise Impulse. Port Attack on the French Fleet.
The Italians had a chance to destroy the French transport but only managed to damage it. No matter, the French aren't in position to reinforce North Africa next turn because the French player "failed" to repair the transport. A major mistake by the French player I think.
