@simon33 thank you so much for the game, looking forward to this!
GLHF!
It would be terrible to wait 10 hours for the next roll
Lose both carriers and a fighter
I think you should have used all your transports
But that is in hindsight

I killed my carrier and the planes (what proved as bad choice as my subs missed both with a 3 now)
I got my 5 hits and your subs missed?
That’s good news, but then you still got your expected 3…
Downloading
That’s OK, you didn’t upload the map but I think I got it
We have 2 subs, 1 destroyer, 3 cruisers and a damaged battleship for America
Japan has destroyer cruiser 3 fighters damaged battleship
I was thinking saving the cruiser gave me 2 ships, but the battleship gives me 3
map should be there, 8 minutes ago

right about combat situation,
I don’t get the last sentence
3 hits, lose 3 fighters and give me my hits
you got just three, files in a moment
you just had to save dd in first place, hadnt you?
Well now I have to just save the battleship and all I can do is tell you that you will face revenge! 😅

Yeah I know what you’re scheming. This time (as opposed to 42) the dice really blessed that daring raid
I’m glad you didn’t combat move your other 2 transports. Apparently you lacked faith! lol I will be tired in church
battle over, my dd and damaged battleship survived

kind of… thought about philipines and guam … or do you mean even Hainan? I skipped service today …
Well, folks, that’s the peril of building a “safe” naval base on Hainan
I guess I was thinking Borneo and Celebes. I couldn’t get those for a couple turns
All your UK subs get to stay where they are. Bask in the glow of the good dice! I look forward to seeing the terror you will set up on Western Europe
I missed last 2 Sundays. Wife will start worrying if I don’t go tomorrow, it’s a must
