Spoox (Allies) vs Alsch (Axis) Alpha 2 Round 2

[Spoox]

scramble 1 Fighter in Guam
scramble 3 Fighters from Que

Can I ask: was this a planned attack or was this dependent of the results in Europe (fall of London)?

[Alsch91]

Yes, this was dependent on Germany taking London, which brought US into the war anyway.

plan was to at least damage the 3 capital ships in z49 (with average dice throws), then retreat so that UK and Anzac fighters+ship could finish them off. Almost impossible now
Rest of allies later, have to go now.

question: London has fallen, thus not collecting ipc's. Will every newly conquered territory on the Europe side of the board, generate ipc's for UKPacific untill London gets liberated one day?
