Germany attacks the Soviet INF SW of Murmansk. The Finnish HQI provides HQ support making the odds +11.

Germany sends one LND2, and one FTR3, as ground support. And has one FTR2, and one FTR3, available for counter-interception.

USSR has two LND4, and one FTR2, available to fly to aid the attacked INF. Will any Soviet air try to assist?

Pls fly all 3 SU planes, worst bomber in front, target FTR with any results. Stay until FTR is gone then bombers will abort. RTB whence all other than the worst bomber which can RTB to 26.63, 1 hex SW of its current hex. If SU picks a defensive X or A take it on bomber if another bomber will still remain (i.e. try to get a bomber through)

I have to run an errand now. Hope to roll air combat in a couple of hours.

Germany send up both fighters.

First air combat round see one Soviet bomber remains. Air combat continues...

Same result as previous round. Combat continues.

Third combat round see two fighters aborted, and the combat ended.

(I hope I did correct when I aborted the German FTR2 in the third round)

Final odds.

Edit: Did not bother rolling for the Japanese attack since it is automatic.
