I forgot to do a few moves by Japan before asking you to scramble. Let me know if you want to redo the turn because the new moves changed your decision whether to scramble in the Phillipines.

Intercept in France?
Yes please. Out of curiosity, is there a reason why I wouldn’t? This is a new mechanic for me.
-
@simon-tressel Some people prefer not to risk it unless the odds favor them, since you still get the AA shot as well. I’ve seen & had bombing runs where the attacking bomber shoots down the interceptor and the AA misses. When you have to roll 1s/2s there’s always a chance it goes quite wrong
