2022 BM Playoff R2 Me1945 v Gamerman01 (+24)

[gamerman01]

What is wrong with my notifications?

I’m just now seeing you did J4.

If you come to Z26 with 5 fighters and 5 tactical bombers and I have a battleship, cruiser and destroyer, you will do well.

[gamerman01]

Didn’t make a difference this time, but
friendly reminder that amphibious assault battles must be rolled first, thanks

(nod to @JDOW for teaching me that years ago)

[gamerman01]

Spend kamikazes at the Marianas?

Will most likely need casualty choice at 91, but didn’t roll yet because I thought you might not appreciate that roll being done on the forum. Just playing it safe.

@gamerman01
Please scramble two kamikazes.
And wherever you roll the dice, let’s go step by step in sz91. Probably I won’t be able to respond immediately.

Thank you

Absolutely

Kamikaze hit, I assume Japanese submarine submerges

[gamerman01]

Subs miss, but 3 hits from the rest.

Your choice?

@gamerman01 Damage AC & BB, lose sub

[Me1945]

I assume Japanese submarine submerges

Correct

[gamerman01]

Thank you

Rolling round 2

[gamerman01]

You got your 3 hits, one from sub…

Let’s see…

[gamerman01]

OK, I’m losing the carrier and a sub.

Triple A rolls your subs first and makes me choose.
Then other ships and makes me choose
Then fighters.

According to rules, I don’t have to choose until they’re all rolled.

I took a sub hit, a hit from other ships, and a hit from fighters

So I can take off 1 sub and the carrier, but I had chosen the carrier for the first 2 hits and then couldn’t choose the sub.

So… I’m going to roll on forum from here
