Third round miss.

Two ground strikes which you can intercept. The mountain hex strike in the South can be countered by one five-strength German fighter.

Intercept?

Will the AA gun fire if the mountain strike gets through?

The hit should have actually been on the 4-1 garrison but I don't think that matters in the grand scheme of things.

Germany rails their paratrooper to Turin and their 2-3 infantry division to La Spezia. They rail a 3-1 garrison to Brussels.

Japan rails their artillery from Haichow to Umezu's hex.
Land Moves:

Italy uses their moves to take the British controlled hex in Sardinia and redeploy their motorized corps to Cagliari. Japan snakes around in Central China trying to flank Changsha.

Germany generally moves units back toward central France and prepares an attack on the French mechanized hex.

One attack in France which you can support. Germany can call blitz, current +7 odds. Germany has one five strength that can counter French air support.
