L16 G40 Simon (Allies +21) vs ABH (Axis)

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

Scrambles, Sir?

[simon33]

I can’t tell from the summary. That’s an SBR on the UK with 1 ftr escort and 4 bombers, all attacking the factory? If so, no intercept.

Normally I don’t do Sea Lions, but it is just too tempting when you don’t build any infantry in the UK on the first round.

Rule clarification:
An amphibious assault occurs and the attacker chooses to ignore submarines. Defender scrambles. Sea combat occurs including the submarines and no bombardment, correct?

Good question on the Russian Sub.  You can skip ahead to the G3 turn and see how it TripleA handles it and then change the position of the sub.  Feel free to make the edit any time before G3.
