@AndrewAAGamer I see your point. The fleet is done anyway and this gives it another turn perhaps or allows it to cause more attrition.

But if I’m the allies this turn, I probably would just stack 97 and take Greece (assuming both those can be held but it looks on the face of it that they could). I would wait to wipe out the Italian fleet for when I have my air and navy combined in 97 since they can’t go anywhere and can’t do any damage.

One thing to consider is that if the Germans hold Yugoslavia (or S France), you might have had more opportunities to save that fleet. Its often not worth it, but those become routes to get german units in the Med or to allow the Germans to build airbases to support the Italian fleet.

I think it was a mistake to stick the fleet in 93. the allies might very well destroy it anyway, but they would have to work harder to do so, and get pulled more out of position, if it was in 97.

Scratch that. I’m going to put two UK air on a US carrier in 92

All air are now on their own carriers. in the Atlantic. Still an ANZAC air on a US carrier in the Pacific.

@axis-dominion LOL My UK Bomber was stacked right on top of it. Didn’t realize I grabbed the wrong unit. You can barely see the bomber as its hidden behind the naval base now but that should be removed as I moved it to Norway.
