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.

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.

@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.

Yeah, you were in a tough spot.  I liked putting my French fleet near Gibraltar to make you German planes fly all the way over there.  We probably both got what we wanted and could’ve done better or worse.  You wiped out all the Allies in the Med, which was significant number of ships, and I burned some of the Luftwaffe.  I agree it’s not fatal to Barbarossa.

The Indian Brits are the aggressor and declared war on the innocent Japanese!!

Getting closer to round 3 and heavier action…

[FMErwinRommel]

You also made an unprovoked attack on Jpn Yun in our first team game.  I thought it was because I, as Jpn, had burned thru China in 2 turns, decimating their army.  This time, Jpn’s invasion of China is going slower.  So I was surprised that you would make the unprovoked attack, thus preventing U.S. from entering the war early.  You have invested heavily in Egypt.  The 2 tt’s that escaped the Ger attack will make it easier for you to re-garrison Egypt.  I didn’t want to expend a second bomber to take them out on Ger’s turn. 
I’m going to be working in the yard with the weather turned cool.  May not get to Italy’s turn until tomorrow night.
