@GovZ Sorry, I was going to tag you to alert to the thread but doing so many different things today I hadn’t yet!
Glad to see you’re here. Yes, IC in Egypt makes me think Sealion…

Combat Hit Differential Summary :
Scramble to 111?
Submerge in 106 for round 1?
No scramble. Submerge the sub.
Weird dice, and I’m not too happy, but no disasters so I guess I’m very happy. Game on

Just a reminder:
@gamerman01 said in OOB Oysteilo +40 v Gamerman01 with tech - UHD map:
Someone liked a post (not this one) on a 12 year old Sealion thread (shortly after the rules had been firmed up from the Alphas), and I bumped into this nearby post
Apparently I forgot the lessons I had learned. It’s long, but thought you would enjoy:

I take it France fell from the no disasters. I’m guessing I killed a plane somewhere and sunk at least 1 sub in 106.

Dear German High Command,
Stalin respectfully requests permission for the Russian boats to move through the Danish Straits.
Der Fuhrer refuses, but all others in command grant permission, for R1 only. The leaders are quite confident the Russians have not engineered long range nuclear submarines yet, so are happy to give the empty gesture in exchange for 17 more small villages
Oh, right, the other Leningrad ships. Hmmmmm

I ask that every game - no one has every let me before. I’m not at all sure if you did or not, but I’m not. The DD buy on G1 prevents the sub from escaping and I like the CR more as a blocker, than in the North Sea.
Permission through Danish straits granted.
We are your benevolent friends from the West, maintaining order all over Europe so that our friends from the East can rest on their straw pillows.
I am happy to be the first, and I did not do it so that I would be the first.
Thanks, but I’m good with the R1 posted. Those boats will help more in the Baltic, I think.
FYI - I’ll be out the rest of the night. If you are going for a J1 COW, no scramble in 35 and submerge in 37 (assuming you send the CR + 3 planes).
