Germany initiates a search in the Bay of Biscay. No Axis air added.

Will CW add any air to the BoB?

Sep/Oct '43
Impulse #4 (Axis)

After finishing up in the BoB, Germany will then search in the West Med. Three Axis naval bombers will be added to the 2-box.

Will Allies add any air to the West Med?

Will take a break for a couple of hours. Hope to continue later this evening.

No air to BoB.

7 factor Spitfire from France to West Med box 1.

That is a lot of planes in West Mex! Axis have 15 planes there

I need to get to bed in about 30 minutes.

I am going to roll tomorrow then. Or hope to do so.

Sep/Oct '43
Impulse #4 (Axis)

The Axis air is spotted by the British naval bomber. How will CW proceed?

In the meantime, while CW ponders on the BoB, Germany will initiate a search for Allied shipping in the Western Mediterranean.

Sep/Oct '43
Impulse #4 (Axis)

No contact in the West Med. Axis rolls 9, and Allies 7.

Dispirited, Axis decides that there is no point, and abandons any further attempts in finding the enemy at sea for this impulse.

Avoid combat in BoB, thank you.

Over to Germany for the second part of our impulse.
