I did forget to ask about CSV search. Will continue as it's unlikely the Italians are brave enough.

Allies will be searching Italian Coast. Allies not adding any additional air support. Axis He112 only air support available that can reach 1 box.
Doubt it will fly but I must ask?
There is indeed no need to ask every question that MWIF asks.
I suggest that we will get better with time in knowing what the line is for if a question should be asked, or not. It has not often happened when a question was needed, but not asked, and we will try to let you know if such a thing happens. I am pretty sure that I will not be upset if honest mistakes happens.
Advancing the game is in itself a good thing.

Axis finds in the Eastern Mediterranean (Axis 2, Allies 10).
I put the CVP Baffin as a bomber for CW.
Italy use 4 points to add +1 / -1 to the air combat.

One Axis bomber was cleared, while the CW bomber was aborted.
I see no reason for CW to abort the air combat, so I go to round 2.
