@crockett36 Good Morning Yes it's a tough battle problem. As you can see, you are able to place in 98 to avoid the NMs but you can only place 3 a turn. That makes them susceptible to a counterattack. Your Sub is safe, as there is no DD but the Escrts are probably sunk. They might get lucky and take a Ftr with them. An AB where you can scramble to help defend 98 placements and sending Escorts up from S AF to sweep the NMs or attempt to, would be the best bet to break through. That takes a lot of resources and time though. The AB, which can be upgraded to scramble 4, the Fctry can't be upgraded to build 4, would probably be your best bet. If you can survive with 1 surface ship, Italy can't place anymore NMs until the SZ is clear. Subs don't stop them. So, basically you're in an Arms Race then with Italy and the Reich can produce out of S FRA as well. If Germany sends Air with it's U-boats, it's gonna be that much harder. It will take power away from USSR, although the Air can still hit it. It's hard to break through once they get established, the Naval Mines. 92/91 and 113/112 are the other chokepoints. At any rate, Idk. It's up to you if you wanna invest that much into trying to break into the Med but I think your attack was ill advised last turn and I wouldn't have launched it. It does prevent him from sewing anymore NMs this turn though, unless Italy just sends all Air at the Escorts. Which is a gamble but something they could consider. You need some Escorts in 81 to go in and sweep as mentioned earlier, so, yea Idk what to say It will take a combined effort and won't be cheap or easy. Something else to consider, is you can run the gauntlet so to speak, if you have a fairly sizable Force in 81. Not all Mines are gonna hit and they might all miss too. Once you get Ships in 81 and can hold it, you'll have succeeded. Edit Something else you can do, is use Air and Subs to take out his Escrts. Forces him to keep buying more of them then. Sometimes you just have to concede the Med or as you say, keep hitting GIB but it's hard to pry them off the Rock as well. And they'll start mining 92 if threatened. It all takes resources away from SSR though, so there is that. Just depends if you think it's worth it or if your money would be more effective spent elsewhere

@mickAAMOUSE yea I struggled on my own over the years. Figured it out a couple times only to forget it as I rarely played on forum and was gone from the internet for long stretches of time. Victory finally clued me in Yea so for a scramble, we take a screenshot of the battle and make a save at that point so your opponent can see your entire move as that may affect their response. Then you have to wait. You can also play live on the 2.5 lobby. It'll be changing soon to 2.7 but it's not quite ready yet Edit You should check out BlackElk's Global 40 map. Same game, just different looking units and map. Under experimental in 2.5 or alphabeyical in the prerelease "UHD World War II Global" [image: 1778790659883-screenshot-from-2026-05-14-15-30-45.png]

@JohnnyCat sorry for the delay. ill get to it soon.

@Alexander ok. enjoy your vacation.

@beelee said: Those Tommy Paras were Badass lol They did an outstanding job indeed! And they died for a better reason.

@Panzerstahl-Helm-0 Thanks mate! But I am starting to power down after packing all evening. I'll roll the dice when I'm back in a couple of weeks, enjoy the "temporary peace" lol Yes, I have been traumatized by Italy 'can-opening' in the OOB rules - now this takeover situation is even more crazy to watch out for! Will do, thanks again. I look forward to it!

@schneiderson Nice Let us know if you have any trouble

@trout Heh heh, I thought I left Egypt a little weak and it would fall. That's why I had to keep taking Alexandria with more Units Than I preferred. Otherwise it'd open up a landing spot for European Air. But yea, the Kill shot on London was obviously the way to go Hopefully I've finally learned my lesson
