I never seem to muster enough courage to face the AAs so often, but clearly from a statistical point of view its worth it.

[seth4god]

Oh, it backfires from time to time . … I had 1 round with US where I lose 5 out of 7 bombers in ONE turn whilst bombing multiple targets. The past 2 Japan DOW turns for me have both resulted in a bomber shot down and 4 damage done by the survivor. But statistically it DOES payoff.

[lexgreat]

so lets see what you do with Japan this turn. Lose a bomber? ;)

[seth4god]

I scramble and that prevents the assault.

omg, a classic example of my daftness. I confused the order of taking those two countries. Taking it with the US and landing the French inf in Norway would have given the absolute same result, one inf in Denmark, one additional for Norway, with Italy still having no chance to conquer Denmark (only clear it, but that would still prevent the German navy from coming out). Oh well, maximum damage for zero gain. I’d be tempted to ask for correction, but I guess Italy moving in between is a problem, even if it could not have done something immediately.

Need to get over my horrible unthoughtfulness.

I see you are as shocked as I am.  No worries, no question will come your way, your chances to win now are almost 100%.

What I do not know, however, is about technicalities. What happens when you scramble, this TT on its own and lost with inf on board?

I remember a reading a question about this before. The way I understood Gamer’s or Krieg’s response (can’t remember which of the two of them answered, or maybe both did) was that everyone lives since you American ships can attack and I can’t kill the transport. But the infantry would be stuck on the transport since it was part of an unsuccessful assault, feel free to unload him in Norway instead if you wish.

We can always ask Gamer just to validate in case my understanding of the rules is off.
