XDAP-02 WeWin vs BoldDutch

[dutchmand]

@seththenewb:

Yup, missed a sub in that first look . . .  so that makes that battle a no go.  :roll: Maybe if it was to salvage a win or I had another fleet in reserve and the IJN had nothing else afloat. But alas, the IJN has another fleet in reserve and that USN fleet represents the bulk of allied ships in the pacific. If someone hadn’t had their capital sacked maybe US could build more in the pac.  :wink:

:-D

I was supposed to have one more tach at the airbase but miscounted somehow, so yea, it was close. But, figured it was OK, as I could heal the damage.

On a roadtip with BigBadGoo to funeral.  This is good distraction.  8-)

So the Aussies have some sharpshooters … .  :evil:

I thought I’d end up retreating after strafing an infantry for USSR. Ha, oops.

[seth4god]

I think what had happened was you pissed them off by killing their brother in arms from TrJ. I can see it now … .

Ah cool, he’s your brother. Very nice. I’m trying to get my dad into A&A, he’s into strategy board games like Fortress America, Feudal, Risk, and the like. I grew up playing those games with(mainly against) him. So I can thank him for getting me involved early and ultimately sparking my love of board games in general.

He and I played our first game of A&A together while I was a freshman in high school. Sadly my friend with the game moved before we had a chance to play again. I didn’t played A&A again for quite awhile until later in high school when I discovered online A&A gaming. He hasn’t played since and I’ve been out of the state for awhile, so we could never play head to head. Now that we’re living in the same state again, I want to change that.

i see ya’ll are both on… gonna need ya for some
casualty choices in big battles - z91 and gib

[boldfresh]

coming right up in a couple min with rolls.

[boldfresh]

z91 - hit 5 times.  3 attacking and 3 defending subs all missed.  waiting for casualty choice before proceeding with defense roll…

[boldfresh]

here’s the map

[seth4god]

Can you shoot me a map of the combat? I’d like to know exactly what you’re hitting Gib with and what the rest of your turn looked like. Got the dice rolls, so I know what you’re sending against sz91.

[seth4god]

talk about service, shooting it to me before I even ask. wait just a second.

[boldfresh]

i do my best  :-)  now if you could just miss a lot on defense…  :wink:

[seth4god]

Well, you’ve tipped your hand with the attack on Gib. So you’re stuck doing the combat or risk losing the transports with the men on them. So let’s kill the 3 subs plus cv to bring us to five hits. Keep 2dd + 2 ftr for the next round.
