This only works if there are only Italian aricraft scrambling. I usually use two fighters from the United Kingdom terirtory, and the fighter from Malta-the fighter from Girbraltar should be used along with the cruiser off of Girbraltar (it takes three submarines to have more than an 80% chance to kill it, my normal standard to win a battle, so the submarines are usually used for easier prey in the north, especially if Germany attacks the Soviet Union in the first turn, which will nessecitate one submarine in sea zone 125) to destroy the Italian navy off of Malta. If a German aircraft lands in Southern Italy, I usually will call of the attack, as there is a less than 80% chance to win. All of this assumes Germany invades the Soviet Union in the first turn.
UK Pacific Economy
-
Trying to find a rule that explains this in the manual but everything I find is vague. Here is the situation.
-
If UK Pacific takes Persia. Does the control of that territory belong to UK or UK Pacific?
-
If UK lost their capital and UK Pacific takes Persia does the control belong to UK or UK Pacific?
In both of those cases when stating one has control it is assumed they add those PU’s to their Economy and can produce at facilities on that territory.
-
-
In both cases, it belong to the Europe Economy because Persia is on the Europe board and is not West India.
-
That’s what I kinda figured but I wondered how it worked when UK Europe lost its capital.
-
UK just would not get the income. ( Stupid, I know.)
Has to be taken by the US, Russia or Anzac (or France, if activated) to collect the income. -
Also, if/win London is liberated, then UK Europe will collect the IPCs from Persia (unless an Axis power has taken it beforehand, of course)
This also works on the Pacific side. If Calcutta is captured and some UK Europe troops liberate West India, no one gets the IPCs until Calcutta is liberated.

Very good point!
