Well, in the last turn of combat three bombers have been lost to antiaircraft fire. It has been odd.

@simon33:

Yes, full scramble.

Oh no Kami’s left. Bummer. Don’t think I saw that.

If you had kamikazes left I would not have been able to make the attack. As it was, your first defensive roll was quite harsh – seven hits. I had actually counted on having two loaded carriers left instead of one. So much for that.

I took a shot at the Philippines with one land unit attacking. Unfortunately for me, I was not able to reclaim it – I’ll have to take care of that next round with ANZAC.

Oh yeah, and I’ll be moving the Russians in this time.  :-)

[MarshmallowofWar]

I gotta say though, I got incredibly lucky on the Caucasus roll. I thought I was going to lose planes (planes for tanks being a bad trade even in that situation), but you only killed one tank. That more than made up for the loss of three extra US units in sea zone 6.
