Did not scramble to defend Vologda because of the heavy odds.

Edited out a US F & Tac from western Africa, because I forgot to do so last turn when they were edited to A-E Sudan.

Grant that your interesting Axis opening creates problems and challenges for the Allies.

And I am very happy you and your opponents will play the game more accurately - the correct resolution of fleet combats is its own joy in the game.

Don’t just rely on the battle calc. You could really fool an opponent who is relying blindly on the battle calc some day.
It is not hard to imagine a game-winning battle due to fleet battle complexities.

There are various strategies within fleet combat you can enjoy, so it is important to understand those rules for greater enjoyment of a game you spend many hours on

got it! …
