11L '41 PGMatt(10) v. Gamerman01(x) no tech, Game 3

[Seador]

yeah, it makes it a pretty even slug fest there.  Honestly not sure if I can accept an even fight at this point.

Maybe you’ll get lucky and only lose like 2.  I thought you were going to annihilate the 13 battleship with the fighters.  I was wrong!

Might slip in the J2 during 3rd period……  :-D

I can see a case for saving a CV over a fighter so I’ll dice attacker before OOL

#1 vs Z62 Ft (x2), DD (x2), Cv
Ft (x4) z56

Dice, attacker
Rolls: 4@3; Total Hits: 24@3: (3, 5, 4, 1)

[Seador]

well, that should be 2 DD I would think
#1 vs Z62 Ft (x2), DD (x2), Cv
Ft (x4) z56

Dice, defender
Rolls: 3@2 2@4; Total Hits: 23@2: (1, 3, 6)2@4: (3, 6)

#1 vs Z62 Ft (x2), Cv
Ft (x2) z56

Dice, attacker
Rolls: 2@3; Total Hits: 22@3: (1, 1)

[Seador]

Well, that helps.  I’ll just assume max defense with your option
#1 vs Z62 Ft (x2), Cv
Ft (x2) z56

Dice, defender
Rolls: 1@2 2@4; Total Hits: 21@2: (3)2@4: (2, 3)

#1 vs Z62 Holds with Ft OR Cv, defender choice.

NCM
Inf (x2) Sik m Chi

Build: Ft (x4), Tr z56; Inf Chi

I didn’t spend all my cash, I forgot I had saved, I would like to spend the balance on a DD z56 leaving me with 0.

Collect: 48

map assumes that you’ll keep a fighter in z62 you’ll need to land it somewhere.  If you want the CV, go ahead and keep it instead.

[gamerman01]

Thanks, and I will keep the CV.  Nice of you not to force a casualty choice after your double hit….  Saves me 4 bucks I guess.

[Seador]

if 4 bucks makes or breaks my entire game, I’m playing the wrong game.  Regardless, I didn’t give you the choice knowing you would get to pick and choose with hindsight, and I’m perfectly fine with that.

Well, keeping the fighter would have had its merits too, so like you’re saying, you’re not giving up much of anything by giving me the hindsight choice.  A fighter could better defend Bry or be used to attack in the next turn.  Saving the carrier saves me 4 bucks and gives me more forward attack options in the Pacific.  It’s kind of a tossup anyway.

You’re behind my Tournament game, and my League game with Bold in priority, but if I get it to where I’m caught up on both of those tonight, I will move this one too.  Fun, fun.  :-)
