I thought I was going to be attempting to clean up 2 subs and a damaged battleship in 110 and already feeling like it wouldn’t go well. Don’t remember ever seeing a blank in 111.
Very interesting scenario for UK1.

@gamerman01 also had a blank in 111 in my play off ptv game…seems like a bogey space!

[gamerman01]

That’s a 0.8% for the whiff,
not sure if you took the exact same thing in on PtV but I’m sure it was similar

@gamerman01 well i dont think this game could have started much worse, its looking v bad already :(

[gamerman01]

That is super bad. At least you weren’t cheating air away for a J1 DOW

Farmboy had similar results on J1…
Yeah those forward J infantry are extremely valuable

[gamerman01]

A lot of calculations, a lot of possibilities…

Scramble to 97?

UK1 97 scramble.tsvg

[wizmark]

@gamerman01 max scramble, max def, bb last casualty please…lets hope for a turn around in the axis dice!

[gamerman01]

Scramble there can break either side, especially the Allies.

[gamerman01]

A battle that Triple A does wrong…

I hit 4, took a hit to your battleship, cruiser, 2 fighters. So fighter, damaged battleship left.

Triple A rolled your 3 fighters and demanded a casualty choice before rolling the 2 ships.

You scored 2 fighter hits, +1 from your battleship.
Now I have to think.

[gamerman01]

Will try to keep it clean
I’ll roll on the forum from here.

So I hit 4 and from your instructions, I take off cruiser, hit the battleship, and lose 2 fighters

Your fighters hit 2 and your battleship hit 1

I lose 2 fighters and damage the carrier
(I took off the carrier in Triple A so I could see the rest of the roll)

So we have
Damaged carrier, Sub, Destroyer, cruiser, 1 tactical, 1 bomber
versus
1 fighter, 1 damaged battleship

[gamerman01]

The evil bid sub goes for a surprise strike on the battleship

I’ll lose the carrier to that Axis plane hit
Very tough start. But you have an excellent record so I will not back off. It could all turn around

[gamerman01]

If you have any questions about 97, I can explain how I did it
