L20 Gamerman01 (L) vs AetV (w/o Iwo NO)

[gamerman01]

I ran it in a calculator. That was 24 hits rolling 1 1, 32 2’s, 1 3, and 2 4’s (36 total dice)

It’s .01% chance, 1 in 10,000. I will assume the extreme defenses were for 1 full round and fearlessly attack on US10 and UK10 ;)

Intercept bombers in South Italy or scramble to zone 97 or neither?
Kamikazes for Zone 35?

Thanks

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@gamerman01 please scramble to sz 97 and use all Kamikazee Tokens.
One for each DD. Max Def.

Thank you.

[gamerman01]

OK, I’m going to roll the Philippines battle on the forum because if I recall correctly, Triple A will roll subs separately - to be sure it’s done properly it needs to be rolled here…

[gamerman01]

[dice 3d6]

[dicebot]

3d6: 6, 2, 6

[gamerman01]

Fair enough - 1 destroyer sunk by kamikazes

8 subs, 6 destroyers, 9 fighters, 1 tac, 2 bombers, 1 battleship (and 3 carriers)
[dice 8d6 6d6 9d6 4d6]

[dicebot]

8d6: 3, 4, 4, 1, 2, 6, 6, 2
6d6: 4, 4, 6, 3, 5, 3
9d6: 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 3, 4, 5, 4
4d6: 4, 5, 1, 4

[gamerman01]

bathroom break lol

[gamerman01]

OK, that would be 3 hits with subs, 0 hits with destroyers (and I forgot to roll for 1 less destroyer from the kamikaze hit, didn’t I?) 4 hits with fighters and 3 hits with the 4’s, for a total of 10 hits

I know you said max defense, but I do need you to choose casualties because it makes a difference if you keep a destroyer to round 2 or not, thanks

So you hit 1 destroyer with kamikazes, and I scored 10 hits in round 1. My destroyers all blanked so it doesn’t matter that I accidentally rolled 1 too many destroyers. What 10 hits do you take? Thank you

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@gamerman01 If I understand correctly you got then a total of 13 hits including the sub hits?

In that case sink all CV’s dent BB, kill one DD and a TacB.

In case I missunderstood the total of hits; dent BB Kill 4 CV’s and dmg last CV for a sum of 10 scored hits.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@gamerman01 I thought the DD who is hit by an Kamikazee needs to be removed immediately? He doesn’t participate in the battle? Or was I mistaken?

[gamerman01]

@aequitas-et-veritas
Oh, you’re totally right, I mistakenly rolled all 6 destroyers but should have been 5, but if you read my post again you’ll see that two different times I acknowledged this. The ghost destroyer missed along with all the others so I think it’s all good there, I am so sorry for the mistake I made and the confusion it caused.

I might have also confused you when I said “3 hits with the 4’s” - that was my way of saying I got 3 hits from the combined rolls of the 2 bombers, the battleship, and that tac bomber.

It’s 10 hits total, not 13. I will try to be clearer in the future, I’m very sorry for the confusion.

OK, so you said dent BB, sink 4 CV’s, and damage 5th CV for a total of 10 hits - thank you very much for that, I just really didn’t feel comfortable choosing casualties for you in this situation.

[gamerman01]

Japan has 5 carriers, 2 destroyers, 4 tactical bombers, 6 fighters, and 2 battleships, one is damaged

7@2 4@3 8@4

[dice 7d6 4d6 8d6]

[dicebot]

7d6: 2, 3, 5, 1, 3, 2, 2
4d6: 1, 2, 2, 6
8d6: 4, 1, 6, 5, 6, 2, 6, 3

[gamerman01]

That’s 4 hits with the 2’s
3 hits with the 3’s
4 hits with the 4’s
11 hits total

I just did the SBR and Egypt took 6 damage but Rome shot down both bombers.

[gamerman01]

OK, I think it’s too risky to try and save a fleet here that would hold up against your air counter-attack, so I will scuttle the fleet…

I ding my battleship (1) sink 3 carriers (6) and 4 subs (4) (11)

I have 4 subs, 5 destroyers 9 fighters, 1 tac, 2 bombers, 1 dmgd BB
vs
1 dmg CV, 2 destroyers, 4 tacs, 6 fighters, 2 dmgd BBs

4d6: 2, 3, 5, 1

9d6: 1, 3, 5, 6, 1, 1, 3, 4, 1
4d6: 5, 2, 3, 5

[gamerman01]

4 subs hit 2X
5 destroyers hit 4X
9 fighters hit 6X
2 bombers, tac, battleship hit 2X

14 hits, craziness. Destroyers found their way to the battle now

You lose CV, 2 DD, 4 TAC, 6 fighters, 1 BB
