11L '41 DarthMaximus(12) v Gamerman01(x) No tech

Well, it’s pretty safe to assume you lose 6 subs, because this is a 43/53 battle and I got almost an average roll.  Also, I am likely to lose all my subs in the first round, so you wouldn’t take off all your destroyers to allow your planes to hit non-sub units….

Wow, it seems like a long time since I got a break like that in a sizeable battle….  Probably hasn’t been that long, but it seems like it.

Japs take hit to battleship, lose 2 carriers, 1 sub

I forgot about the free hit to battleship and the 2 carriers when I thought it was likely I would lose all my subs in the first round.  I hope you are OK with me taking off the 6 USA subs first.  I guess you have 4 destroyers - that would be a lot to take off in the first round just to allow your 6 planes to not hit subs…

This time I’d better wait.
You could change the first round casualty choice if you want to at this point too.
So go ahead and choose first and second round casualties, and then we can continue.

Bummer.

I’m not sure what I have there.
Lose dds, then acs, then ftrs.

Assuming you win this battle, I’ll probably concede anyway.

[gamerman01]

OK, that’s what I thought but didn’t want to be presumptuous.  Agree it looks like this battle will be a deciding one

I will not bother doing the noncombat unless you tell me you would like to continue.  Thanks.

Yeah, don’t bother.  If I didn’t have so many games to finish, I might drag it out, but still need to finish a ton to get to ten.  Although with 2 losses (just lost to ExtraBilly) in one day It might not matter if I get to 10. lol!

Go ahead and post the result.

Good game!

[gamerman01]

Good game!

Now I should be able to play the second.  When I’m in the mood for another nerve-wracking G1 - hehe

[DarthMaximus]

Whenever your ready.  No real rush.

My your dice be filled with many 5’s and 6’s.  :wink:
