Indeed.

I have to be away for several hours at the moment. Let me know which ship you want your damage on and whether you will remain in zone please.

Put the D on HMS Nelson. CW aborts the sea area.

All ships to Liverpool.

NAV2 Skua -> Derry
NAV2 Swordfish -> Plymouth
FTR3 Mosquito -> Plymouth
FTR3 Whirlwind-> Liverpool
US FTR2 -> Pembroke
FTR2 Hurricane -> Belfast

If stacking doesn't allow this then use a hex in the vicinity. If I missed an aircraft land it on Barrow or Holyhead.

You may intercept this ground strike. Italy can counter with a 4 strength fighter.

Germany rebases a fighter on top of Graziani and Condor to Aden. Italy rebases fighter to Northern France. Japan rebases the G3 in NEI to near Rabaul.

Turn sent, more fine weather.

I thought that US would have the possibility for defensive HQ support in Manila. If I am right, then it is either a bug or was missed. Not that it mattered this time. But I would still like to know, if possible, which it was. Mostly for future games. Don't bother with it if it takes any time or effort.

For clarification: With this die roll it didn't matter. So I am only curious for possible future relevance.

I think that must be a bug. I looked at the rules and the option for defensive HQ support should have come up. I don't see anything that says being OOS prevents it.

I believe you are correct and had I rolled lower, it could have mattered.
