Truer words have never been spoken about the FSA! Go all in, or go home. ;D

I have scenario set up photos that will help show the geography.
Go to link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/m7856i0u7rn4vno/AAD8GIWAA2UEB-ZT9aqoNWtKa?dl=0
The geography is centered on the strait which crosses the width (short) length of the board with large islands coming in on each edge about 5 inches and that have small (2-3 inches) treacherous areas adjacent, (sand bars and reefs).
There is a Massive (tall, but not overly broad- say 6 to 7 inches) Mountain in the middle. There will two islands (about 4-6 inches) with one each between the edge islands and the mountain. These will be set back toward the defender side (Italian side in the photos).
There is a large island on the attacker side (FSA in photos) that can set anywhere along the FSA bombing BG start line. It screen some units but distance to the exit edge will probably make it of marginal use.
CDR-G:
One thing that concerns me is the line that "carriers have to move full speed ahead to make it off the table in time." As long as that fact is well understood by the FSA player(s), that will be fine, but that objective could easily be forgotten or else a CV could take an "engines damaged" critical that would throw everything out of whack.
The Bombing BG that has the 6" movers will have 42 inches to go in 8 turns, if they start on their start line. If they go straight through the strait that would allow a 6 inch mover to completely exit the board in eight turns (unless they are longer than six inches). That provides a cushion of 3-4 inches since to qualify as off-the-board a model needs to have more than half its length off the edge.
Possible alternatives--Any model that gets any portion off the edge is considered to have exited as soon as that occurs.
Another modification might allow the attacker (FSA) to exit up to 6 inches in from the far edge on one side of the board. That would be known to both sides.
CDR-G:
Here is a map for the scenario. Note:the distance from the start line to the exit edge is 42 inches. The red area denotes the exit area for the Bombers
