L24 BM Stucifer (X) vs Booper (L+22)

[Booper]

@Stucifer

oops, I meant invading infantry on the transport.

[Booper]

@Stucifer

Oh, I see you brought in other planes to SZ21 as well.

Well, glad I made the right decision! :)

[Stucifer]

Yes, and yes I brought the extra planes to discourage a scramble. 94% chance to capture with the 3 units + a bombard, I got the 3% draw. ☠️😂

[Stucifer]

I can live with a draw, if you had managed to keep the fighter alive as well that would have been bad. I believe there is a transport in range that would be a free kill, or just attempt to kill the cruiser and take the 30% chance you get both the cruiser and the transport and the fighter lives to fly to Hawaii still!

[Booper]

@Stucifer

Yes, would have been super-fortunate for Allies if the fighter lived! I’ve never had a sea lion played on me, so this is new territory! Exciting either way. :)

I have some UK battles which need decisions on your part:

SZ92 Does your sub fight or submerge?
SZ43 Let me know your OOL if possible.

triplea_41179_2uk_sub.tsvg

[Stucifer]

@Booper 92 will submerge.
For 43, if you want to roll on the forum and edit the results that might be easiest. OR, you can turn edit mode on before you start the battle, and choose no casualties for the subs if they score a hit, and then give me the total number of hits and I can pick casualties when the rest of the ships roll.

You probably know this but just in case:
If you get sub hits, TripleA makes you choose casualties.

But, since I have a destroyer I’m allowed to see the hits your other ships get too before making casualty selection.

The way TripleA is coded though it always rolls subs separately.

[Booper]

@Stucifer

I’m glad you mentioned it, as I was aware of some rule of this nature, but had not seen it so clearly stated as you have here! I will try to do the rolls on the forum, but haven’t done it before, will try a test.

[Booper]

@Stucifer

OK, will roll in ascending order.

2 subs
[dice 2d6]

1 DD
[dice 1d6]

1 CA
[dice 1d6]

1 BB
[dice 1d6]

[dicebot]

2d6: 5, 3
1d6: 4
1d6: 3
1d6: 4

[Booper]

@Stucifer

2 non-sub hits, let me know your casualties at your leisure. Feel free to do your response rolls here too.

[Stucifer]

@Booper

both hits will go to carrier.
[dice 1d6<=1] Carrier
[dice 1d6<=2] DD
[dice 2d6<=4] Fighters

[dicebot]

1d6<=1: 4; Hits: 0
1d6<=2: 4; Hits: 0
2d6<=4: 6, 2; Hits: 1

[Booper]

@Stucifer

OK, so 1 hit from you, will absorb on the BB. Carriers in BM only defend at 1? I didn’t realize!

[dice 2d6<=2] 2 subs
[dice 1d6<=2] DD
[dice 1d6<=3] CA
[dice 1d6<=4] BB

[dicebot]

2d6<=2: 1, 6; Hits: 1
1d6<=2: 3; Hits: 0
1d6<=3: 3; Hits: 1
1d6<=4: 4; Hits: 1

[Booper]

@Stucifer

OK, that finishes it off. I’ll go ahead and roll your response hits. If you are rolling simultaneous, we’ll take whoever gets in first.

[dice 1d6<=2] DD
[dice 2d6<=4] Fighters

[dicebot]

1d6<=2: 3; Hits: 0
2d6<=4: 4, 4; Hits: 2

[Booper]

@Stucifer

OK, battle complete. Most likely will lose 2 subs, but will take a look at the board to confirm. Will try to finish out the turn shortly.

[Stucifer]

@Booper Sorry, they defend at 2, I am used to PtV where they only defend at 1.

[Stucifer]

Doesn’t matter, as the roll was a 4 :)

[Booper]

@Stucifer

Yep, no problem. I changed my selection at the battle to lose the cruiser and keep a fighter. Numerous edits as I’ve lost track of my master plan. lol
