US TRS from Gib to WM box 3 loading HQA Eisenhower from Africa

CW TRS and HQI from Casablanca to East Med box 0
CW 2x CP to East Coast

US CP to SCS
US fleet (TRS, 2x AMPH, 2 BB, 5x CV) to SCS loading INF, HQI and MAR from islands next to SCS.

There was a long discussion about how many CVs will sail to SCS so I need to check this before I possibly do naval combat in China Sea.

I will start naval combat in Italian Coast to speed up the game.

Any planes for the Axis?

Only if we have any fighters that can reach the 2-box? Then we would consider it.

I think there is no such fighters. I will check when I get back to home. If there is no such fighters I move on.

Splendid.

I hope that moving on means that you move along from the Mediterranean, and acknowledge that it is an Italian lake.
