This rebase has not been done. Were something else rebased instead? Or did it get missed?

Should we await a new save with a correction?

Impulse #4 (Allies)

CW initiates naval combat in the Italian Coast. (CW has 3 SUBs in the sea area)

Axis has 2 naval bombers that can react into the sea area. Will any of them reinforce the Italian Coast?

[Orm]

The Allied Empire now takes a break because an important internal event is taking place. England versus Scotland. [:)]

[toenailthehun]

Axis will not add any air to Italian Coast sea Zone.

[Orm]

Both sides rolled 8 in the Italian Coast. No combat.

[Orm]

Jul/Aug '40
Impulse #4 (Allies)

CW search in the East Med. Declines to add any air.

Will Germany add their NAV3 to the sea area? Or will Italy add their FTR2?

[toenailthehun]

Again Axis decline to add any air into the Sea zone

[Orm]

Impulse #4 (Allies)

Both sides find in the Eastern Mediterranean. (Allies 3, Axis 2)

How will Italy use their 2 surprise points?

[ssiviour]

Please reduce Axis Damage by 1, should be 1D 2A?

[Orm]

ORIGINAL: ssiviour

Please reduce Axis Damage by 1, should be 1D 2A?

It is indeed 1D, 2A. Will roll for damage now.

[Orm]

The Italian CA is damaged, and aborted.

[Orm]

All CW ships remain on station.

[Orm]

Jul/Aug '40
Impulse #4 (Allies)

CW stay for a second round of naval combat.

Will Italy stay as well?

If Italy aborts the sea area, to what port will they sail? (Ships sailing to ports bordering exclusively to the Italian Coast can be intercepted, but not those sailing to La Spezia)

[Orm]

If Italy stay will Axis add any air to the East Med? Allies will add no air.

[ssiviour]

Axis will stay, add no AC, any Aborts go to La Spezia
