Triple A doesn’t conduct a battle like this properly.
There is a good chance that casualty choices will be required before they should be.

Like right away. My sub scored a hit with MARTI and it asks for a casualty choice but you don’t have to choose until you see the whole attack roll because you have a destroyer (or THREE)

I had to let it roll the sub in order to post the game map.
So it is posted, and I will roll the rest of the dice on forum so that the battle can be done properly.

[gamerman01]

I also want a little time spacing here (time stamps from MARTI e-mail and time stamps in forum) so that it is clear that everything was done properly. So not doing anything until I hear back.

[gamerman01]

I wish TripleA would be fixed to do these correctly.

[gamerman01]

I don’t know you very well yet, but I don’t think you’ll protest first die roll on MARTI, then post map, then go to forum so that you can see the entire Italian dice roll for round 1 and then pick casualties.

What do you take?

[Stucifer]

@gamerman01 damage carrier and lose 2 subs please.

[gamerman01]

I don’t want ask this, but are you sure?
Did you look at the map?

[Stucifer]

@gamerman01 Ah, again PtV brain strikes and I discounted the air forces in Western Germany. Thank you for your consideration. 2 subs and 1 destroyer please.

[gamerman01]

You’re welcome,
You only have to half thank me, because I also benefit knowing that you will not later be upset

I’m afraid of the dice I’m about to roll.

[gamerman01]

I am also impressed when I saw you are playing PtV and took a crazy 4 IPC tech token OOB game

[gamerman01]

Fearsome British fleet off Egypt,

I’m gonna roll it like we were face to face…

2 subs, 3 destroyers, 1 carrier, 2 cruisers, tactical, fighter

Well with the difference in ELO it’s a lot riskier for you to gamble on a crazy game with me than the other way around haha
