Obviously, the Germans are coming with 12 aircraft, so I left the Allies with 4 AA guns in North Italy and chose 2 UK infantry.  I think that leaves you with your best defense, but if you want to change the casualty choice of course please do that

You had the option to intercept in Queensland - I decided to give you the advantage of an after-AA decision and keep things moving - certainly, roll the air battle if you want to intercept

Well my chances in this game are probably 1 in 500 at best, but among other things I’m curious to see what you do next as Japan.

There it goes.  Looks like I got a hit.  Your rolls were 6 and 4.  I can’t remember the convention as to whether its 6 dmg or 4 dmg (eg whether you use the 1st or 2nd die), but either way, my airbase is still disabled.

[Zhukov44]

I’m going to take away the bomber on New Zealand–if you prefer to keep that one and take the other pls edit.
