13L G40 Boldfresh vs. Karl7 (Allies +11)

[Karl7]

The is the damnedest game… I keep thinking the Allies are dying and they manage to limp along…

Of course I say that, and you probably have some killer move ready to end this thing…  :lol:

[boldfresh]

I think this one is over whenever I want it to be over…  :-)

[Karl7]

Probably.  When you going to visit Cairo?

[boldfresh]

I’m just having fun now… get ready for a big fleet battle!  :lol:

[boldfresh]

i attacked z91 with everything the italians can get there…  you got one sub hit in the first round (even though you should not be aware of that yet, tripleA does this wrong.  the subs only fire first when there is no attacking destroyer present.  give me your losses and i will continue.

[boldfresh]

here is the map.

[Karl7]

cash out subs and hit to BB and brit cv

[boldfresh]

you hit 7 times in defense in round 1 (including the sub hit) and i damaged the 3 acc and 2 bats and lost 2 des.

round 2 attack was 7 more hits - ool?

[boldfresh]

I14 - tough one for the allies.

[boldfresh]

if you want different casualties in round 2 defense go ahead
and choose them.  i may then want to choose my casualties
differently and continue the battle.

[boldfresh]

by rule, once you see your defense roll you should not be allowed to change casualties (just in case you did not know that) but i have no problem with it in this case, since the axis are so far ahead.

[Karl7]

Could I just swap out a brit fts and cc from a us cv?

@Karl7:

yes you could lose a brit cru, ftr instead of the US acc

[boldfresh]

ok, you decided you wanted to lose differently so instead of taking 2 hits to the US acc, you want to lose brit ftr, cru.  in that case, instead of losing 3 ftr, i will lose 3 acc.

Round 3

Attackers - 2 cru, 3 ftr, 2 damaged bat, 2 bombers
Rolls: 5@3 4@4; Total Hits: 65@3: (6, 5, 3, 3, 3)4@4: (1, 3, 5, 1)

Defenders - acc, 2 cru, 2 ftr, damaged bat
Rolls: 1@2 2@3 3@4; Total Hits: 41@2: (2)2@3: (1, 5)3@4: (5, 2, 3)

[boldfresh]

now what do you want to keep?  you have one unit remaining, either damaged acc or a cru or ftr or damaged bat.

[Karl7]

Cruiser

[boldfresh]

hold on a minute… you want to keep the cruiser over the damaged battleship?
