Axis is more straightforward, as the powers mostly operate in their own theaters, with some occasional cross-over.

Yeah I built that sub there for that reason 😃. I also didn’t build more fighters in UK thinking I can scramble the Normandy planes while also using whatever survives to defend Normandy. After you posted the turn and I did a simulation on local, then I realized that they’d get stuck in the sea zone, which is why I decided to only scramble 1.

Since dice haven’t rolled I think it’s okay if you want to bring 1 more sub. If you do that I think it makes sense for me to scramble 1 fighter from Normandy.

Oh, you are right. Congratulations - well played! Russia should have concentrated on defending its capital instead of running after bonus points. When Moscow falls this early, it gets very difficult for the Alles. Good luck in your other games.
