Misterblue vs DizzKneeLand (allies+9) BM3 L20

[Misterblue]

@DizzKneeLand I think you missed something a lot worse for the allies. If got sz54 at 100% and more than 100 TUV swing even if Japan hold back two carriers to provide landing spots. Perhaps you want to reconsider your ncm for America? It won’t really affect Italy but I’m a bit spent so I’ll do Italy tomorrow. I did get some fun in tonight of the board game variety
which has always been my preference even more so as I’m getting older. :)

[Misterblue]

Never mind. This is the reason Italy has to wait for tomorrow. You only need one blocking spot not two and Anzac can cover that. Except that only subtracts two more destroyers (if I’m planning to hold back two carriers); well I’ll let you make the math and decide how you want it. :)

[Misterblue]

…and a battleship :)

Ugh, so I’m seeing ± 77% for Japan with about +35 TUV swing with one Anzac DD blocker in 46, am I missing something again? I used to be better at this game but not right now.

Let me know if my assumption is correct. Otherwise, something I’m doing isn’t right in battle estimations. And I always appreciate constructive criticism. :D

[DizzKneeLand33]

If my assumptions are close, I’ll stick with the current position. Otherwise, I’ll need to move a US DD to block 55 too.

[Misterblue]

I got it at 92% and 62 TUV. If I’m not mistaken Japan can attack with 3 ac, 3 ss, dd, cc, bb, 7 fig, 5 tac and 2 bmb. The landing spot for the last two air units comes from the carrier in sz6.

[DizzKneeLand33]

I missed the 2 fighters in Java. Yeah, I think I’m just getting old. :(

Still debating then. Thanks for the opportunity to look at this closely :)

[DizzKneeLand33]

Well I just missed it. I’ll just have to take my beating. Thanks for the offer tho.
