US TRS from Northern France sails to North Sea box 0 loading AT gun from UK and MOT div from Denmark.

US CA from Fiji to The Marshalls box 3 loaded with INF div.

Allies are not initiating any naval combat.

Axis can initiate in two sea areas. CW has ATR3 that can fly both North Sea and Faeroes Gap.

Do Axis want to fight in these sea areas?

There are some planes Axis can fly to North Sea if they want to.

Faeroes Gap

Axis will initiate in both sea areas.

Use the Hungarian FTR2 in the North Sea.

No more planes?

CW ATR3 to FG box 0

No luck in FG, both rolled 6.

Axis 8, Allies 1.

Allies choose to avoid combat to get troops to Netherlands.

Now there will be break from game.

CW ATR3 to FG box 0

With the ATR3 to the FG the Italian SUB might have wanted to stay out of it. Not that it matters now. [:D]

I waited few minutes as I figured out that might be the case. But decided to move on as I was in hurry and ask again if rolls favor Allies 1-10.

I should have told in advance ATR goes to FG as sub intercepted and it was clear that it will initiate to see what happens.

I have another rules question.

US liberated factory in Marseilles few turns ago. It's not shown in US or FF productions phase. When it becomes working factory? After liberation of France?

Yes. It should become available after France is liberated. And not until then.

Blue factories only produce for their own home country. Or aligned minor.

Yes. I got that. No worries. I hope I would have said the same with the rolls in favour of the Axis. I mostly mentioned it for future considerations, even though I thought it was unneeded. Anyway. All is good. Except, of course, the evil dies does not do as they are told. [;)] [:D]
