@dawgoneit I deliberated a lot taking the carrier or a DD/cruiser on the first round, I had an average or below average roll I think and that made me think the carrier would have been a worse choice since it is important to maximize defense for the british attack follow up. So I made the edit after the first round (given you got 11 hits, but you wouldn’t have known that, it definitely was the best choice). Also tripleA didn’t give the US fleet the option to retreat to 99 so I edited that, I made sure to move the UK fleet into 99 before attacking so I wouldn’t have to edit that again in case of retreat, which ended up happening
