I don’t have access to the map right now, but if this is a scramble to fight 2 CV + 3 FTR + other stuff, then no.

Man with all those rolls I would have hoped for at least 1 hit in Morocco… the Axis really haven’t been rolling well in Europe.  Luckily the Pacific is making up for it.

I’m stuck here at work… I doubt anything I do with Italy is going to affect the ANZAC moves, so feel free to skip over Italy and play AZNAC/FR.  I can then just run Italy, edit the Pacific, and play Germany.

Along those lines, if ANZAC feels like committing suicide with their fleet, you can take 3 CV hits, then a BB hit, then start sinking Subs and DDs.

Well, never mind, I made it back, heh heh

Ahhh… I’m noticing from the British save that you didn’t finish the non-combat movement phase for their turn.  You should do that and post it, since it will actually affect Italy’s turn.
