Remaining UK forces: destroyer, bomber, 2 fighters,
Remaining German forces: 1 sub, 1 fighter, 1 battleship, 1 cruiser.

Let me know if this is correct

[trulpen]

I’ll try and check.

[trulpen]

I think I miscalculated. There were 5 hits on the defense in the first battle-round, 1 from sub, 1 from air and 3 from surface-ships, right? Then there were no cr left for battle-round 2, so UK has 1 unit less. I suppose it’s a fig then, since the des is needed to take out the last sub.

If this is correct then for battle-round 3 the remaining forces should be:

UK: 1 des, 1 fig, 1 sb
G: 1 sub, 1 fig, 1 cr, 1 bs

[trulpen]

This would preferably be continued in the client.

[trulpen]

Also have to analyse how the situation would’ve been when choosing casualties.

[trulpen]

UK had 2 hits and G had 2 sub, 1 cr, 1 bs, 2 fig left.

Think the rational choice would be to take out both subs.

G then got only 2 hits and UK had 1 des, 3 fig, 1 sb left, so would take out 1 des, 1 fig.

Remaining forces for battle-round 3

UK: 2 fig, 1 sb
G: 2 fig, 1 cr, 1 bs

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

failed. I will post.

[trulpen]

It was an heroic effort. If the germans hadn’t hit so well in defense against US, I’m sure it would’ve worked. Maybe they should’ve gone all-in kamikaze?

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

It definitely would have worked if America had rolled average. I should have kept going a round by was so upset by that die roll. It has been a few years since I last played Allies… Thanks for the match.
