Need scrambling orders in the Med.

This is a tricky battle in terms of casualty selection. What’s your order? DO you want 2 hits on your AC first, then 1 hit on BB, then standard?

Will do. I tested the battle like 10 times, chances are i’ll have boats and all bombers left, depending on how the rolls go.

HA wow 1 bomber left. The game doesn’t want me to do well in the Med.
