@zlefin lets leave it as is. Normally one doesn’t allow these kinds of changes after dice have been rolled, but it wouldn’t have impacted the battle (your subs got the hits) and I appreciate you are new to league play. And I wouldn’t have scrambled given that htere were 2 battleships to soak to the hits.

Looks like a barn burner! You guys must be having fun
I object to the move of leaving Normandy and/or Southern France French so that USA can’t use the ICs there, even though I am using it. I’m with Gargantua on this one although he is focused on allowing them to be left USA owned. They never get that way if Axis don’t take them.

@gamerman01 @simon33 Really tough to actually beat the Axis, we will see how it goes. Russia 10.tsvg

USA Scrambles.tsvg SZ 35, do you scramble, choice of Suicide attack and do you intercept bombing raid in W.Germany? I will go round by round sor the sea battle.
-
Bummer. Was a miscue that I used too many planes for Kwangtung. Dreamed you wouldn’t take advantage.
Anyway, no intercept in W Germany, full scramble in the Philippines. One kami on each DD, 2 on one Cru, 1 on the other.
That is even worse than I thought.

@simon33 I had no choice, probably the only time I had a chance on your navy, could not risk another attempt for Japan to take the money islands again. I was so sure you would have put your navy in a safe place or block me with dds! UK 10.tsvg

Chinese regular : 2.00 Japanese regular : 0.00I suspect that is going to be the game. IIRC I did think about putting down a blocker but I needed 3DDs for that and I only had 2 that I hadn’t used in combat. Urgh. And leaving FIC exposed was not good.

@simon33 France 10.tsvg I am sure glad China was able to hit in Yunnan; often 2X1 vs 1X2 ends up winning! Maybe you could have gone to sz 42 ( Java ) and block with 2 dds or go to sz 6 and garrison your navy with your buys, I really think you did not have to send planes at all in Kwantung, you had overwhelming odds no matter what, but I get it why you stuck to sz 35. Attacking sz 35 was a huge risk especially with those Kamis, almost ended in a disaster for USA, but I had a 1-2-3 punch just in case.
