France, and CW, managed to create a decent defensive line. Looks solid enough, but with no terrain to retreat and lots of blitz hexes I doubt it will hold until the bad weather arrives.

Land action for Germany, combined actions for Italy and Japan.

Naval Air: Italy flies the Gabby to the four box of West Med.

Naval Moves: Italy moves a task force to the four box of West Med and load the Italian infantry division from Algeria. Japan picks up units from Japan with their transports and amphib.

Searching West Med.

The search missed.

Intercept this ground strike? The Germans have two five-strength fighters that can intercept.

France intercepts with their best fighter, but both sides score a DC.

Fire AA?

One attack in France which you can support. The Germans are using their engineer to attack from the East across the river and fortress. The Germans have their AA gun involved in the attack and one five strength fighter which can intercept.

Air Rebase: Germany moves a fighter to Northwestern Italy. Heija moves North a few hexes and the 110 C takes over the Heija's former spot.

The Italian air transport moves one hex NW.
