USA’s move will be the most important move in the game since the USSR decision not to attack the Germans after they moved into bry, I’d say.

[gamerman01]

Careful - you might be helping me!

[Karl7]

Ha!  I’d say you’ve helped yourself despite whatever I say.  This is the first game I’ve ever seen where France was an active player!  That is saying something.    :lol:

[gamerman01]

I’m not sure Japan can be denied…
Still thinking through possibilities for both A&A…

Maybe I need to look at attacking Z46 again after all…  :-P

[Karl7]

I welcome an allied vist to sz 46.  :-D

[gamerman01]

Be careful what you wish for.
It’s actually looking like my best chance.
10% chance I destroy everything!

Median is you are left with 2 damaged battleships and about 6 planes….  according to my rough approximations using an AA50 calc…
I think I’m liking the potential aftermath of slamming into 46, even for a median result, better than the alternatives.

But I need a break now.  Back later tonight probably

[gamerman01]

Hmmm, OK back and looking at it again
Definitely attacking 46
Now to figure out what to buy and whether to attack Spain - probably have to wait on neutral crush, because all that matters is the Pacific right now - all hands needed

[Karl7]

yeah, maybe I shot my mouth off to soon… attack if you must.      :mrgreen:

[Karl7]

some how, some way I fear luck will be with you… its the vibes man…    8-)

[gamerman01]

It’s good to have the vibes on my side…

With 71, buy 2 SS, 3 DD, 4 FTR

Combat moves -
Ind - SBR (WInd)
Z46 - 3 FTR, BMB (Nte) SS, DD, CA, BB (Z62) SS (Z33) 2 SS, 3 DD, CA, CV (Z26) FTR, BMB (Mid) FTR (Haw)

More to follow… need to spend time with wifey
Hopefully you’re on tonight to give casualty choices, but if not I guess it will still be here tomorrow

ool for 46

all hits point first, then ss, then cvs, then right up defesne comnat value

[Karl7]

correction:

ool:

1. all hits points
2. ss
3. all dds, except save one if attacking ss still present
4. all cvs unless per 3 above
5. lose units per combate value

hope that makes sense.  essentially kill dds before cvs, unless attacking sub present at which time preserve last dd over last cv

[gamerman01]

I’m back.  Are you sure about your OOL?  I’ll wait for you after attacking round 1.

[Karl7]

well since I am here, I will wait to see :lol:

[gamerman01]

Yeah, I will be rolling within the next 15 minutes or so, I think
It’s a big decision - you shouldn’t have to do it in advance, but thanks
