No intercept.

@simon33:

Only one hit from the Italian navy? Poo.

Looks like I didn’t have enough Luftwaffe to go around to defend everything. A major miscalculation. Lost so many in SZ98!

SZ98 was 64%. Even if it were 90+% I wouldn’t have attacked it, it had no transports.

Another issue with combat moves first is that when you plunder a capital that has no units (like India here), TripleA allows you to use that money in the purchase phase, so you need to be careful not to spend it.
