USA Round 5: ($75)

Purchase:
5 ss (30), 1 dd (8), 1 AC (16), 2 fgts (20) save 1$

I mulled over this for a bit, not sure if it’s the right move or not… figure I will pull the trigger on it.

SZ 36 (1 AC, 1 fgts, 1 tac, 3 DD) vs 2 SS (SZ 33) , 1 Tac + 1 bmb (Caroline islands) , 5 fgts (SZ 33)
SZ 22 (1 DD) vs 1 DD & 1 fgts (SZ 31), 1 fgts (SZ 33)
Iwo Jima (1 Inf) vs 2 Inf, 2 Art from Caroline islands vs 2 trns in SZ 33 - I don’t believe Kamikazees work against lone transports? if they do I don’t wish to do this attack then.

Scramble orders for SZ 36?

[Axisplaya]

No scramble. You can take Iwo Jima.

[NoMercy]

I thought you might not; gives you better odds in a future battle not to mention it would have been near mutual destruction on that battle I think.

I would rather trade any “good dice” from earlier battles which are less significant to some of these more “important” battles.

SZ 37 is not going well, remember the dice before you decide how to counter-attack  :-D
I bet if you knew in advance you would have scrambled  :-D

If you had scramble and we did around mutual destruction;

I had a few follow-up moves to soften up Japan for a counter-Strike…

Like attempt UK air attack on KWA to try to kill 1 bomber + maybe try a suicide run on the Philippines with Anzac.

I know sometimes I think of a few crazy moves…not sure if you expected that last USA move at first but that is probably why you didn’t scramble.

I saw this one and it’s the exact reason i didn’t scramble. I toyed with the idea of scrambling just the fgt and keep the tac for the defense of Kwa, but in the end, i didn’t like my odds in sz36 with only 3 planes against 7…
