Mussolini is on his heals!

[FMErwinRommel]

Chi didn’t build in Szech as I had hoped, guess you remember what happened in our first team game.  And my defenders in Yun all missed.  This will not be as easy for Japan as in our first team game.  Nuts, knowing Taranto was coming, I should have kept the damaged Ger BB and taken a plane as a hit in the North Sea on G1.  Then, you would have had tougher choices to make.  I’ve never seen a build up of Brit planes in Malta on B1.  I will take Italy’s turn tomorrow.

[Desert_Admiral]

Yeah, not having to fight the battleship really freed me up to do as i wanted.

I spread Italy thin.  The odds were in my favor, except for Gib, but with such small numbers, it was a big risk.  I took Gib, even odds, as no planes could reach.  All my units hit, all Brit missed.  But the opposite happened with the Fr fleet.  All my ships missed and all the Fr ships hit.  I could have added a plane for better odds, but gambled and lost.  I rolled again round 2, thinking cr would be sunk anyway.  But forgot the retreat would have put it in protection of scramble.  I missed again.  This cost me an N.O. and the Fr fleet will make it much harder for Ger to take out the Brit fleet.  I did get the N.O. for Greater Roman empire.

I had just finished planning my builds and combat moves after the Yankees won the one game wild card playoff and got your post just before I was going to ask for OOL.  Interesting.  Back to the bat calc.  Spreading out the Ger air raids might be better, maybe not.  But the move to a more remote location will affect where my planes land.

[FMErwinRommel]

I spread myself thin attacking all allied ships.  TUV +31 vs Brit and +10 vs Fra.  I didn’t need many planes to take out Brit Taranto fleet, as CVs without supporting ships can’t take hits without me retreating and the CV ftrs drowning.  The one battle that I was really counting on was sz76.  My bomber had 80% chance of sinking the Brit CR and 40% of also sinking the 2 tt’s.  The bomber and CR both died, but I didn’t get the tt’s.  More important than their PU value, it would have prevented convoying the African troops to join the attack on the Italians in Alex.  I planned on landing enough Ger planes to protect the Italians.  But having to land planes in Gib to reach the French fleet, and not sinking the tt’s in sz76, left me with insufficient planes to land in Alex and too many Brit ground troops.  Sorry Italian army.  As it is, the Luftwaffe lost 5 planes.  That’s not fatal to Barbarossa, and Italy has a chance to earn N.O.s and hold off Brit.
