    The Pacific is going to be a lot emptier now.


  • Wow.  That came out 6 or 7 fighters worse that I was expecting to lose.

    Z62 taken with fighter, bomber

    I see I didn’t list my buy correctly, there were 13 IPC’s saved.  I was originally going to buy a bomber and save one, but then I thought I’d better buy a fighter so I deleted it but forgot to complete the change.  So I will just save 13.

    Noncombat Moves
    bomber to CAR
    3 fighters from PER to CHI
    fighter from Z62 to Z51
    2 infantry from WUS to CAR

    Mobilize
    3 infantry, 3 tanks in WUS
    3 transports in Z56

    Income

    40 + 10 NO + 13 saved = 63

    Please review the rolling to make sure it was done properly, I was thinking I would have about 6 fighters and 2 bombers left after that one.  Only once did losing the ac later result in a lost hit for me.  So I’m not sure I actually rolled it right…  I guess it’s possible that after my good first round, the second round must have really killed me, I guess it was about 5 hits short or something, while you had good rounds from round 2 on.

    Cheers.

    Yeah, you probably should have cleared with 5-7 units left.

    You rolled up by ~2 hits in rd 1 (with 20), I was about avg.  But rd 2 killed you.  Not only were you down about 3 hits, but I rolled up 2 hits, with was a big 5 hit swing giving me an overall up 3.  You probably picked up a hit in rd 3, but again got killed in rd 4.  Not only didn’t you finish me off, but of course my ftr/bb got a 5th rd of battle to sneak in one more hit.

    I hate naval battles, they can really swing a lot since you are typically rolling lots of 3’s and 4’s.  I thought I was toast after rd 1.  Never been so glad to have all those 1’s for fodder.

    Lol!  Didn’t realize it was my turn in this one.  I saw I had the last post and was thinking I just made a turn.  I forgot it was a comment I made.  lol!

    I’ll make this my first move for games and get a turn up tonight or tomorrow.  Tonights move will depend on how good the football game is.  A good game tonight means I might take the night off of A&A.  :-D
