Air combat over Boulogne goes well for the Allies. Do you choose bomber or fighter?

To speed up things I do rolling in other combats too.

In SE attack both sides are aborted.

In SW bomber is cleared and Allied fighter shot down with pilot

In Normandy Axis bomber is aborted.

This does not reach Milan. Did you mean this one to Vichy and Do217 to Milan?

Where should I land this and should I go back if Do217 is in wrong place?

Yes, I suppose I did reverse them. Would it be to much trouble getting the Dornier to Italy?

I can do that.

It is fixed.

And now combat rolls, I will go in order.

It would have been really good to roll one higher...

It took this long to decide how I move my units. NW France is OOS at the moment.

Hex taken, no losses.

This is what happens when you forget that MOT/ARM loss comes before invading unit...
