@ktylu:

@simon33:

How did you cover your US assault force from a scramble against undefended transports? If the fighters did it, they couldn’t land on Gibraltar.

Not really sure what you mean. What scramble? in southern? If so, at that time 95 was loaded with UK, french and US ships. The two fighters were not even allowed in combat, i flew them from Libya to braltar. Then the UK plane from sicily to braltar as well. The 2 land units came from eastern US, none of those units were in the roman combat, and i still lost! lol

Scramble out of Southern Italy can attack transports assaulting any territory from SZ95 or SZ97. If you load up the save, I’m sure you will see a scramble prompt.

Anyway, I’m not too worried about it.

Scramble out of Gibraltar?

That’s the eighth victory city in Europe. You need to reclaim a VC this turn.

I don’t think you had much chance after Taranto failed.

It is but you have to expect if you roll 10 90% attacks one will fail.
