I only just got around to reviewing the USA attack on SZ6. You sacrificed planes so you could increase the probability of a hit on the DD Interesting move, probably a good one because you’ve denied Japan transports that would have taken income.

@simon33 Wow. How did I overlook Rome??? It doesn’t really matter about the US. The brits will take, which is just a good for you.
