Edit: What-if UK did not go for aggressive Medi fgt buy in UK1, and instead focus on sea mine in sz 12 and 15, and buy inf art atg at ratio of 4:2:1 and occasional tnk bmb for Cairo.

Hey, this whole battle needs to be redone. I don’t mean to be picky … but I told you earlier that I intended to use my kamikazes.
If you’re attacking with 1 sub, 4 dest, 1 cru, 1 fig, 1 bsh, then I would roll 1 kamikaze at each surface ship.
aww dammit; I’m sorry. For some reason I had it in my mind that you meant z6 for the kamikaze’s, which doesn’t even make sense because the UK ships couldn’t reach z6! I’m not trying to screw up your game, it’s me being scatterbrained.
OK here is that battle redone:

OK that was crummy so I am going to reroll those kamikazes

OK her is the map with that battle done correctly (I hope). I really am sorry for screwing that up. It was not intentional.
Also, in the USA attack on z19, the reason I thought you would land your fighters on land was that you might want to save the fighters to defend Japan. As it turns out, your decision was better because now the UK fleet is down to 1 carrier.
5/6 hits is less likely than 0/6 … you sure you want to go with that?
If you do, I’ll lose 3 destroyers for round 1.
Yes, we’ll stick with that. Fair is fair and I owe you one bit of leeway for giving me a lot of leeway with screwing up TWO battles!
As a rule with naval combat, especially high stakes combat, it’s best to get any scramble/kamikaze orders, then roll 1 round and ask for OOL. I might also have considered rolling kamikazes at the US destroyer and cruiser during that US4 to have a better chance of downing some bombers (not sure if I would have done that, but just saying).
That is a rough blow for the UK though.
yes, you’re right. I think I forgot all about the kamikaze symbol in that sea zone because i tend to save those guys for j6. Anyway I have to go clean up my yard becasue there is big snowsotrm coming here tonight and I don’t was a huge mess to clean up in the spring. I’ll be back to do anzac later
No problem, sorry about the poor luck though.
