Naval for Commonwealth and Free France.

Intercept this task force leaving from Plymouth?

No, thank you. And we will not intercept it in CSV either.

Intercept here or CSV?

No, we will not intercept in the BoB. The 4-box looks to scary.

In CSV we will intercept if the 4-box contains two cruisers or less. If there is more than 2 cruisers then we abstain from interfering in CSV.

per instructions, not intercepting in CSV either.

Axis can search here and CSV. Any searches?

No searches. Thank you.
