11L '41 - Manstein (axis) v BoldFresh (Allies) Bid 6, +NOs, No Tech

[Manstein]

hmmn
you definitely got the better of that
i think i lose one sub, cruiser and fighter
would like to lose 2 subs but don’t think that’s possible

[boldfresh]

Correct, not possible.  Round two or retreat???  :?

[Manstein]

what the hell, let’s do it
sub, 2bomb v 2fgt, damBB, tran

sub
Rolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 11@2: (2)

[Manstein]

gamble pays off. that’s a dead BB by sneak attack. that is pretty sick

2 bombers
Rolls: 2@4; Total Hits: 12@4: (6, 3)

vs 2 fighters, tran
Rolls: 2@4; Total Hits: 22@4: (4, 4)

[Manstein]

now i’m not sure what happens
you need to decide which fighter lives, US or UK

both my bombers die - expensive business

but sub lives
i presume the sub also sinks the transport

[boldfresh]

Yes you got lucky again there to sink the battleship  :|.  Sick.  I’m not at a map but I think the US fighter will die so go with that.  Ugh 51 for 40 trade all because your sub improbably survived on uk1 and you were able to pull this one out of the fire as well.  Ouch.

[Manstein]

so british fighter lands in UK, right?

[boldfresh]

you cannot land an aircraft in a territory you took that turn (egypt in this case)

[Manstein]

i thought it was ok for reinforcing if it hadnt been in combat, but i see from rules you are right

in that case i’ll move that fighter from morocco to Bulgaria
