[tinydictator]

GERMANY 2:

Build (70):

3 subs (18)
1 Inf (3)
7 Trn (49)

Combat move:

Bombing raid on UK: 1 Tac (Hol); 1 Tac, 3 Bmb (WGer)
sz101: 1 sub (sz101), 2 subs (sz106)

Scramble?

[Pakitho]

Looks like Sea Lion… Curious to see how it will turn out.

Don’t intercept the raid, scramble in Sz101.

[Pakitho]

On second thought, also intercept the raid (with the 2 UK figs).

[tinydictator]

well here you go:

UK bombing raid, dogfight: 2 Tac, 3 Bmb vs 2 Ftr

Rolls: 5@1; Total Hits: 05@1: (2, 6, 6, 4, 4)
Rolls: 2@1; Total Hits: 02@1: (5, 4)

sz101: 3 subs  vs 1 DD, 2 Ftr

Rolls: 3@2; Total Hits: 13@2: (6, 1, 5)
Rolls: 1@2 2@4; Total Hits: 21@2: (5)2@4: (3, 3)

Bombing raid:

2 tacs on the airfield:

AA:Rolls: 2@1; Total Hits: 02@1: (3, 6)

Rolling 2d6:
(3, 4)

3 bmb on the factory:

AARolls: 3@1; Total Hits: 03@1: (2, 2, 6)

Rolling 3d6:
(2, 4, 4)

[tinydictator]

and thats 6 damage on the airfield and 16 damage on the factory, plus one sub surviving in sz101!

(that is btw why the attack on the US in G1, while risky, can be quite worth it when successful: 48 points of damage done so far by the three subs!)

Non-combat move:

3 bmb (UK) land in WGer
2 Tac (UK land in Hol

BB (sz111) -> sz112
Crs (sz113) -> sz112

We’re just in turn 2… Mutal annihilation suits me fine, as long as the USA is pumping from round 1…

oh my… I suppose it’s the cruiser.

Rolls: 1@2 1@3 3@4; Total Hits: 21@2: (3)1@3: (4)3@4: (1, 5, 2)

[tinydictator]

hm. actually I take a fighter (sub in round 1 and fighter in round 2)

NB that I shot down your bomber in round two, the fighters can’t hit the subs.

[Pakitho]

You’re right. I’ll re-roll the sub instead of the bomber, if it hits it’ll stay the same (the cruiser didn’t hit anyway), if not the cruiser lives:

Rolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 01@2: (6)
