Rats, I forgot about bomber can land in Cyprus.  Had intended to land 2 Ger planes for scramble but after much juggling around for land defense, I didn’t. Should have put in a fig instead of TB
Scramble fig & tb.

Big mistake with picking casualties, lost two that I shouldn’t have to due the loss of the AC.  Good rolling though and the Italian Navy is out of the Med.

:-) wow, the evil dice (fate) have switched sides.  Italian AA and Iraq And I was hoping that you wouldn’t notice the Ita bomber hiding out in It Som or that you couldn’t reach it.  The Ita army in Africa, facing certain annihilation, will make a suicide charge.  Ita still can’t get the N.O. for no allied ships in Med.  Ita income is too low to make it a threat.

What’s with the crazy Bri moves to the Carib?  If you had just taken Bra with 1 inf, you could have carried away all of Bra’s troops.
