I’ll assume you keep the battleship.  If you kept a fighter, I could retreat and let it drown.  The transports have nothing to transport…… safe bet you’d keep the battleship.

Hm, should I pull a stunt like you in Persia, and try to take over the UK?

Hm, 13.67% odds…. I think I’ll pass.

What are my chances on your UK fleet?  They must be pretty good, given that suicide bomber run trying to take out a single destroyer…

The company I work for moved me on the weekend to a place with no internet access; i’m going to be unable to play until this weekend.  I have to apologise for the short notice, it was unplanned.

It’s no problem.  I have plenty going on anyway.  Thanks for the notice, and I’ll look forward to playing some more this weekend.

tragic.  i’ll take OOL by defensive dice going forward.  what happens if you keep your sub and I am reduced to air? do you auto kill the trs?  i cant remember.

Yes, if I were to keep my sub and you lose your destroyer, your air will be completely unable to save the transports.

[gamerman01]

Jeez, I forgot what was going on in this game….  Have played quite a few rounds in other games since Sunday.  :-)

Well, you sure went easy on me there…  I will lose the carrier…

I lose DD and 2 CA
You said OOL by defensive dice……  so I do keep the sub and 2 fighters vs. cruiser and 2 fighters…

Sub has surprise strikes and fighters can’t hit sub…

Jeez, I don’t know if I can pull this out or not….  I know your first and third round was horrible, but all 3 of my rounds were below average as well…  :-)

I lose a fighter…

OK, my fighter can’t retreat without the sub, so…

[gamerman01]

Well now.  You might want to reconsider your OOL by defensive ability.

If you lose the cruiser, the transports will be sunk and I will still have the sub.

If you lose a fighter, then it’s sub on cruiser for all the marbles, and you will only have one fighter remaining.  I know you said go by defensive dice, but I don’t know if you considered this scenario.  Just want to give you the chance to choose your options again - it’s your right…  But man, if it was me I’d want to pick casualties round by round…  To each his own
