[hobo]

need ool for midway.  I would assume default best dice last but just checking.

[boldfresh]

i’m on so just give me your first round hits

[boldfresh]

sloppy mistake leaving the ftr in haw…  but it might blow up in your face too.  notoriously dicey battle, and an all-in one at that.

[boldfresh]

i’d say if i can keep the transports here, we’d be about even on the dice.  me getting diced in the huge battle in europe and you getting diced in the huge battle in the pacific.

[boldfresh]

i do not feel good about the battle.  it’s rare that i get evening out dice in a game after i get a heavy dicing.

[boldfresh]

Lets see its all about round 1.  If you hit under a couple and I hit over a couple watch out.  :-o

[hobo]

13 hits, or exactly the average…

[boldfresh]

lose sub, 5 des, tip 5 acc, lose 2 acc

give me the damage in round 2 (if i get any hits back!) and your round 2 hits.

[boldfresh]

hang on tip the bat

[boldfresh]

hold on - let’s make sure we have this right.

[hobo]

so basically the best dice

[boldfresh]

tip bat, tip 5 acc, lose sub, 4 des, lose 2 acc

[boldfresh]

yes but saving one destroyer just in case you wanna get cute.  :lol:

[boldfresh]

give me your round 1 losses and round 2 hits, i’m right here.

[boldfresh]

yep totally hosed again.

[boldfresh]

two biggest battles of the game by far and i was massacred in both.
