Japanese find in Bay of Bengal. How do you want to play this and will you stay for more?

Allies stay.

In Marianas Allies find (4-5), choose surface combat, use all points to increase damage and sinks CA.

And this is how things went:

In Marianas Allied patrol plane finds lone Axis CA and alerts battle ships. Just as CA's radar notices US ships two battle ships open fire beyond the horizon using radars to aim. Opening salvo with mighty 16-inch guns hits and CA explodes.

In Bay of Bengal Axis targeted box 1. Sub took two hits for the team and saved CV.

Axis took 2A but I didn't roll as they gave orders to abort to Singapore.

In East Med CA Pola survived D and Italian fleet sails to La Spezia

Continues tomorrow with ground strikes

Air combat over Lvov is over in after one round with no losses

Typhoon fly in front in west of Paris

In west of Paris bombers are cleared so AA will fire. German fighter was shot down with pilot.

In SW SW of Paris US LND3 in the front bomber

I ask at this point if Germany want to stay? The best bomber cleared and odds are against Germany.

EDIT: German fighter aborted

How is Orm?

Orm is out of surgery and is recovering.

In Romania south bomber is cleared without losses

AA in west of Paris is heavy and accurate!

FF LND3 is aborted, Typhoon with rockets continues.

Impressive rolls, but in wrong moment
