CW also has the possiblity to use defensive HQ support. Allies can choose Blitz or Assault.

Land attacks

4: Hex 63,161 next to Valdivostock - odds 37:5. Will USSR flip ART for 2 points of defensive ground support? Japan can choose Blitz.

USSR send a brave Ldn2 to support the defenders. Germany sends a FTR2 to intercept.

The brave Lnd2 survies buth don't get through the German fighter coverage.

In Egypt CW includes the notional and uses defensive HQ support.

Germany sends 8 Points of ground support and 14 Points of shore bombardment

The attacks are mostly automatic. The defensive HQ support failed in Egypt (5 rolled). Allies has the choice of table in Egypt and chooses assault.
