Looks like Sea Lion… Curious to see how it will turn out.

Don’t intercept the raid, scramble in Sz101.

Here it goes…

First Blood (ANZAC&France 1).AAM

For some strange reason, my post as been classified as sp*m and won’t show until a moderator sees it… In any event nothing special, just moved some ANZAC and French around. I’ll try to re-send the final map so you can get started on the German move.

Italy looks poised to explode… But I still hold by my moto of ‘Don’t count on Italy to win the war’.

Not too happy with this turn. Although I saved a plane from Sz97 I didn’t need it, and didn’t sink the German BB, the Italian transport in Sz96 or take Yunnan - should have gotten at least one of these objectives. Oh well, your move. Say hi to Cath!

Yes, I was going to add that convoy raid, turned out to be something  :-( By the way, I’ll move the US destroyer to Sz25 instead od Sz26.

You’re right about the fig, it was a typo, but I’ll still go for Sz97 (you have the edge in numbers but I have more soakers and, in any event, I just want to make a dent):
