Yeah, I was probably short changing myself there, but it made no difference for that battle.

[Karl7]

Bump – Just keeping it alive

[gamerman01]

OK
I think I’ll be moving soon, too… today…

[Karl7]

Hey, sounds good.

[gamerman01]

Yeah, it’s a good game
You are making G and J look more dangerous than they did a round ago - we’ve got a good war going  :-)

[Karl7]

I made a dumb move with Germany.  Not major, just dumb and unnecessary because I keep forgetting all the details of the scramble power.

[gamerman01]

Yeah, this game has a pretty long learning curve.

take out carrier, so 2 hits, then cc for 3

[gamerman01]

Thanks for the quick response.
I was about to assume that, but there were too many factors (carriers that might have to move to 20, and UK turn immediately following)

Well crap.
I might have to commit both carriers.  Oh well, you’ll probably (maybe?) take some hits back
Of course, with the naval base there, good chance you won’t even get hurt.

Well, maybe you’ll hit me twice here.

[gamerman01]

Sweet there.
Yeah, but 0 hits is bad for me because I have to commit both of my carriers to death.  Was still probably worth it…?

[Karl7]

zero hits again….

the “random” number generator is not my friend today
