    casualties?

  • '19 '17

    Max defense.

  • 2025 '23 '22 '21 '20 '19 '18 '17

    I retreated and should have gone one more round. I’ll accept being stuck with it of course but how would you feel with a continuation by forum dice.

  • '19 '17

    Oh no worries, go ahead. It’s certainly legal if other battles haven’t been rolled, and even if they had I’d let you.

    Just posted a game save. You should have 2 tacs and 5 figs. I have 2 figs, 2 damaged carriers and 6 bombers. Have to look up again how to do forum dice. Should be just a couple of minutes.

  • 2025 '23 '22 '21 '20 '19 '18 '17

    practice run through

    : dice 6:

  • 2025 '23 '22 '21 '20 '19 '18 '17

    crap. Will look it up again. If you see this and remember feel free to post instructions or start the battle.

  • 2025 '23 '22 '21 '20 '19 '18 '17

    again, just a test.

    : dice 6d6:

  • 2025 '23 '22 '21 '20 '19 '18 '17

    I’ve done this before but all the instructions I can find quickly online I think are old. Or I’m just missing something. Will keep looking.

  • 2025 '23 '22 '21 '20 '19 '18 '17

    final test I hope

    : dice 6:

  • '15 '14

    Farmboy, I told Adam before, please let me show you how to run dice properly.

    The command you use it ok for convoy rolls, however for battle rolls this goes so much better. Please look at the attached screenshot and see how beautiful and immediately ready for evaluation forum dice could look like ;-)

    DiceRolls: 5@1 2@2 3@3 1@4; Total Hits: 45@1: (6, 6, 3, 2, 1)2@2: (3, 4)3@3: (3, 1, 5)1@4: (1)

    This command will throw 6-sided dice - 5 for units that hit on a 1, 2 dice that hit on a 2, 3 dice that hit on a 3, and 1 dice that hits on a 4.

    So this would be a throw for 6 infantry, 1 artillery, 3 tanks, and 1 bomber.

    I have to think about my casualties in relation to the UK turn but probably I’m only taking bombers off. I assume your casualties would be the two tacs and 3 fighters?

  • '19 '17

    Yeah, but why keep carriers alive?

    @Adam514:

    Yeah, but why keep carriers alive?

    Because of the retreat they are back in 110 and will repair at the end of the turn. I thought the carrier may still be useful to me to support transports or as cannon fodder against your next fleet. :) But I ended up dropping one carrier and keeping a bomber. Its too bad I didn’t make that decision on the first round.

    For some reason, the edit took out the bombers with more range. I will be editing again and landing two on Scotland.
