Oh I am wondering if I am doomed in this game already.
Certainly anything can happen with the dice, but the odds are looking a bit long.

Scramble from London? You did scare me out of doing an amphibious assault.

Germans regular : -3.83 -
Subs missed, 7 hits.
If you don’t want to scramble, undo last 3 and last two 4s of your defensive dice.
-
@simon33 I want to scramble.
Mostly max D, but got to keep 1 DD as long as Germans have significant subs (more than 1).
Keep 1 CV (damaged but alive) for the first round. Depends on how hard you hit next round if I kill it.Kill French and US units of same kind before Brit.
So for this round damage 3 CV + BB, sink 3 Subs.

Oh I forgot to post Germany. Sorry about that. I assumed the sub would fight and die in the next round. You might want to vary some of the casualties, perhaps I should have asked before proceeding because it could affect my NCM but probably not.
At least Germany got better dice next round.
-
@simon33 Ok. Yeah, I really want to vary the losses. I had said I wanted to save a CV, and was interested after seeing what you hit next round.
You hit 10x. I would choose losses at that point.
With my remaining forces I would have expected 8-10 hits (I got 7 but I would not know that). Keeping the 3 CVs and killing cruiser + 2 ftrs would have been a losing battle for you to continue.Even with the 7 hits I got, you still would have an 10-90 battle to continue if I kept the CVs.
My point is that I would have kept the CVs.
Now knowing that, if you want to continue the battle to try and get them. I’m fine with that.
But I will have 3 tipped CVs, tipped BB, 5 ftrs, 5 trans vs. 2 ftr, 2 tac, tipped BB, 2 sb.Re-reading my post. I should have been more precise. But even a very strict interpretation of my statement, I should have at least 1 CV.
-
I wasn’t clear on your comments, found them slightly confusing. You said to keep a CV for only 1 round, which I did. I think you probably meant to keep at least 1 CV, so how many CVs do you want to keep? Does that mean I kill some more planes at least?
-
@simon33 yes trade 2ftrs 1 cruiser for 3 damaged cvs
-
Alright, then I think I’ll continue the battle.

So what casualties after the 4 hits?

Also can you specify if you want to lose the US fighters?

@simon33 Yes. two ftrs were US ftrs.
For the 4 hits, kill 4 ftrs.

@simon33 Scramble?
I waited a day for you to see the vulnerability and adapt, regardless it will cost me several capital ships to make this happen. Maybe that was your plan.
