If Z.501 can make the 3-box, then use the 0 air factor one. If not, then the SM.79 to the 2-box.

SM.79 to the 2-box it is.

The Dutch submarines finds the Italian convoy and sinks it. (Allies 2, Axis 6)

CW stay, and then stay deep with the SUB. I assume that Italy stay as well, and do not add any new air to the sea area. If I was in error I can go back and change it.

Fine as is thanks.

Ground Strike (Air to Air Combat phase)

Finally we have Metz

Allied - 7 (DA) The Germans abort the fighter
Axis - 10 (DC) Effectively nothing

Obviously the Germans have no choice but to withdraw

Do the French use their AA?

Lets go 56, 31 this time

Yes to A-A

May/Jun 1940
Impulse: 2 (Axis)

Ground Strike (AA phase)

The French have 8 AA factors and it's the lowest of 5 used

8
4
4
3
3

How do the French use the points?

Drop the stukas to 4 factors each if possible

I'll check but I think its one or the other?
