The Italian SUB find the Allied convoy (Axis 2, Allies 4).

Italy go with surface combat, and uses all surprise points to increase the damage done. How will Allies handle the D and aborts? And will Allies remain in the sea area?

The usual - try and spread damage as much as possible on the escorts, French convoys first please

[Orm]

One light cruiser is damaged, and both are aborted. One French CP is aborted as well.

[Orm]

Italy remain. Will Allies remain as well?

[warspite1]

Yes please

[Orm]

Both sides miss the second time in CSV (Axis 7, Allies 4).

What ports will the aborted ships enter (1 CL, and one French CP)?

[warspite1]

The CL to Gibraltar and the CP to Oran (or Algiers if taken), please

[AllenK]

French CP can go to Mogador (think that's how it's spelt). It's on the African coast.

HMS Caradoc being repaired, and refitted, after suffering damage on escort duty in the Atlantic.

[Orm]

And the British CL? Gibraltar? Liverpool? Plymouth? Bathurst, Gambia?

Did you miss post 190?

Yes. Sorry about that. [:(]

And I hope that the CP being sent to Mogador in Morocco is good enough. (The CP could have been intercepted en-route Oran anyway)

[Orm]

No action in the Central Atlantic. (Axis 4, Allies 6)

[Orm]

There will now be a break in the action. I hope to continue in a couple of hours.

That's okay [:)] - and Mogador was AllenK's call - I only answered as I didn't see him around and we have an agreement to move things along in the absence of our playing partners.
