Probably a good time to ask: Can tanks blitz through unactivated pro-neutrals? The purpose of this question must be fairly obvious.

France will affect the German turn, so I will wait. It is very likely that Germany will strat. bomb London next turn. If you have some kind of basic rule about when you send/don’t send interceptors and are willing to share, it will allow me to complete G2 faster.

If you prefer to wait and see exactly what I am sending, obviously, no big deal.

@Jercules:

No. Blitz is an attack move. Pro-neutrals are taken during non-combat moves. I once asked to make sure. You can move 2 to reach pro-neutrals, but you can’t blitz thru.

Figured it was your plan… which is why I took Holland. I was hoping you would go after Greece to get the NO instead of attacking Normandy. Should had denfed Normandy better.  :cry:

Interceptors will depend on the number and kind of planes… and also what your purchases are. I can’t tell in advance. Odds of me doing havoc vs cost of sacrifice… and threat of next turn.

So I await your interceptor decision.

[BigBadBruce]

Yes, all 4 fighters Intercept, French get first hit.

I think I can send all 4, since it’s not related to airbases.
