4 player game (Orm, Peskpesk, jjdenver and Mayhemizer)

[Orm]

France rolls an 8 for the surprise roll. This gives Italy 11 surprise points and they use 4 to negate the AA fire.

[Orm]

The remaining points are used to increase the damage.

The first result, the 'X', will go on the CV. Which target will France select for the next result? The first 'D'.

BB Strasbourg takes D. A on any damaged ship.

[Orm]

The French carrier is sunk.

[Orm]

Strasbourg saved the damage and becomes disorganized. (A 10 was rolled but I accidently moved on with the 6 rolled by the program. Since the result remains the same I do not go back to change it.)

No damaged ships to put aborts on.

[Orm]

The transporter is damaged.

[Orm]

There will be a break in the action here. I have orders from peskpesk, but there is a ambiguity in them and I am not sure on how to proceed. I will continue once I have had contact with him. Unless, of course, the hour is to late.

[Orm]

Right, the ambiguity has been fixed. But mostly it was me being to tired to figure it out. Therefore I will retire for the night. I hope to be able to continue tomorrow.

[Pacetti]

Good night.

Sep/Oct '39
Impulse #3 (Axis)

Italy begins to search in Cape St. Vincent. The submarine is included in the combat.

[Orm]

Sep/Oct '39
Impulse #3 (Axis)

Italy rolls 10 for their search roll, while Allies roll 7. No combat.

Italy will try their luck in the West Med as well.

Edit: No additional air is sent to the sea area.

[Orm]

Sep/Oct '39
Impulse #3 (Axis)

No luck in the Western Mediterranean either. This time the rolls were reversed. 7 for Axis and 10 for Allies. Those rolls would have been nice for land combat rolls instead. Not that I am complaining.

[Orm]

No strategic bombing. No Ground Strikes. No rail movement.

A German Coprs begins the invasion of Denmark by marching across entire Jutland and reaches Frederikshavn and the Danish fleet based their. The Corps captures one cruiser and one convoy point. The remaining Danish fleet, one CA and one CP, flee the port for safety in Great Britain.

To what port will the Danish ships sail? (Liverpool is not allowed)

Invasion:

Land Combat Declaration:

The Italian invading force fights itself inland in the mountains just west of Tunis.
The German first engineer leads the assault on Lodz.

Land Combat:
The invasion is automatic whether the notional is included, or not. Therefore I decide that it is not included.

[Orm]

The German 7:1 +3 attack is a success regardless on what is rolled on the die. See combat table in picture below. Therefore I do not bother using the die roller and just put in the worst possible result for the attacker. If you wish I can go back and use the die roller.
