Just looking and thinking right now. Let me know if you want to reconsider anything.

[Shin-Ji]

Volgoda was wild! When I saw that, and realized I hadn’t even thought to check for that possibility, I was like, oh well! Nice knowing ya, tac!

[trulpen]

You defend like crazy. It’s so many battles now that I reckon TripleA is biased. ;)

[trulpen]

And actually I also hit like a granny.

[Shin-Ji]

In my experience, these things come back to bite you when you least expect it, and it hurts the most. I fully expect I’ll be attacking with 100% odds in a massive battle, and lose somehow. Seen it happen enough times that it’s easy to get gunshy

[trulpen]

Alea acta est. You go ahead.

You have two Kamis - want to use them?

[trulpen]

I feel stupid. First intended to move my two Philly-air to sz6, but then wanted to be more agressive.

Yes, kamikaze on. One on the des and one on a ac. I suspect the battle is 1 des, 2 ac and 8 fig against my fleet by Tokyo.

[Shin-Ji]

Your guess is correct! I’ve got like a 2/3 shot at this.

[trulpen]

Time for Japan to shine. I must defend well sometime…

You’re doing alright - both the Kamis hit, and I only got three hits round 1, which I used to tilt the carriers. Now I’ve got 4 more.

[trulpen]

Checking.

Think I need to go with max def. 2 des and 2 ac goes down.
