    The brits were supposed to attack N Italy but now they need to redirect to Rome. And you will retake easily.

    @simon33 Lots of options
    I hope some of that dice luck runs my way this round.

  • '19 '17 '16

    No scramble.

  • 2025 2024 '23 '22 '21 '20

    @simon33 I never do this but this battle is unusually complex because of the sub + DD + carrier interaction–and it really impacts the game going forward…

    I have 2 SS, 2 CA 1 ftr, 1 tac vs. your 2 CV, 3 DD, 3 CA, 3 ftr.

    Because my subs don’t get first strike but Triplea requires choices before you know the result. So rolling all attacks on server here. Whatever the results are here, I will just edit on the game after.

    Attacker – need some dice love here.
