Your fleet off Gib is making me very nervous.  :cry: Wish I could bomb the NB, but haven’t been able to see a way of giving myself a decent chance with your fighters there to intercept.  :|

Should have landed the 2 bombers in W Ger in Normandy instead. Can you please move them there.  :-)

You’re right - S Italy please for the bombers.

I used the Italian bomber for the Baltic States can opener, as I decided not to be distracted from Russia!

Are you saying Italy should have bombed the DD in the Baltic to allow the subs to get through to the Med? But you also have DDs off Gib that would have barred me from the Med. Did consider a G attack with 5 subs and 2 bombers on the Gib fleet but the chances seemed miniscule to me, so I must be misunderstanding you?

The only other thing I can see you might mean is to bomb the NB? Unfortunately I had landed the Italian fighters in the wrong place on the previous go for that. If I could bring 2 fighter and 1 bomber against the NB with 3 fighters intercepting should I have done it?

Or did you mean something else?

@Private:

Are you saying Italy should have bombed the DD in the Baltic to allow the subs to get through to the Med?

Not Baltic - should say (Bay of) Biscay
