Italy did pretty good. I got killed of Sicily. Your sub lives because my surface ships missed.
So - looking it over - what was your thinking in attacking sz95 instead of sz97?
MM
more units to kill, also good retreat for cv to join french.
I think the game evened up with the blundering of the UK in the med.
ITaly making change to purchase before roll - instead of the FTR - buying a DD
