Scramble?

[simon33]

No scramble. I didn’t think you’d make that attack.

[Desert_Admiral]

OOL in 42?  I hit twice in rd 1.  I took carrier hit and battleship for you.  You hit me 3 times.

You have all your forces and I have dmg battleship and all my aircraft left.  Please confirm your losses in rd 1

[simon33]

Yep, those losses are fine.

[Desert_Admiral]

2 hits on you rd 2

[Desert_Admiral]

Rd 2:  2 more hits on you.  I accidentally 2 1 hit each on a carrier for you, but that’s easily swappable if we want later.  Right now you have 2 dmg carriers, destroyer, 2 tacts, 2 figheters, full battleship

[simon33]

Don’t dent the second CV. Lose 2 tacs.

You didn’t tell me if you kept your sub or not but it’s probably not important given that ANZAC have a sub which can strike.

[Desert_Admiral]

I lost my sub in that round along with the destroyer.  In case you’re curious, you hit 3 times, I lost all except bomber.

On to Italy.  You lost 4 in the 1st round.  OOL?

[simon33]

2 AA Guns, 2 inf.

Next round, lose inf then bomber.

[Desert_Admiral]

Sorry, thought I was waiting on you for loss orders.  My computer shutdown so I’ll have to roll the rest of combat in forum.

US retreats with no remaining forces.

Remaining Italian forces - 1 Italian fighter, 1 German tactical bomber.

Please double check me.  Sorry for the manual rolls.

[simon33]

That’s the way I read it, although US can’t retreat with nothing!

Not much left in Rome.

[Desert_Admiral]

Can’t and nothing is a double negative which means US can retreat with something!

[simon33]

Ooh, there was a mistake. When the USA attacked round 2, the inf should have attacked at a 2, that would have made it hit, meaning you killed a tac. Both tac’s hit the next round, so one of those hits didn’t happen. You still have a tank fighting a fighter. Bugger!
