PANTELLERIA 15/06/1942 06/10/1941 I started playing the scenario of the Battle of Pantelleria, an episode of the wider Battle of Mid-June. Regulation
used is "Victory at Sea" heavily modified with all the amendments and not official, who appeared so far and with some rules extrapolated from other regulations, particularly those governing the launch of torpedoes.
the early rounds played seems to be the rules of the scenario that the mechanisms work well, trouble or need large corrections. We will see below whether everything will work as designed.
A German Junkers 88 dive the SS Troilus attacks, unfortunately (I kept the Axis forces) causing only damage to the hull.
A salvo fired by the RN Eugenio di Savoia all'HMS falls near Cairo.
The HMS Bedouin sinking after being hit by a salvo of torpedoes launched by the RN Ascari.
Quite a lucky shot because the odds of hitting the target, at the launch were 25%.
The current situation:
Italian forces are trying to circumvent the escort of the convoy from the North (2 Legg Inc.., 2 CT) and South (3 CT), in order to be able to attack British merchant ships en route to Malta. The British destroyers
Stock protect merchant ships spreading smoke screens and the cruiser Cairo AA team with the remaining destroyers attacked the Italian ships.
be noted, though not visible, the killing of a Beaufigther English by a German Me 109.
