Need intercept orders for Moscow

Time to lay some smack down!

Slight change, bringing all the mech/tanks I can against Baltic states, so you’ll see an additional 3 tanks from E Poland and another mech from Romania.

[gamerman01]

Intercept with both fighters

That way you can shoot down both my planes with snake eyes and then do 20 damage

[gamerman01]

Wait

[gamerman01]

Yeah, send 'em up to intercept
You’re going to have to earn your damage

Whew!

SBR’s are stressful

[seth4god]

Apparently 2 dead Jap bombers are greater than 3 German ones. It took 3 bombers and they didn’t do the same amount of damage and one got shot down in the process.  :oops:

[seth4god]

@Gamerman01:

Whew!

SBR’s are stressful

Yeah, I know! I know that the +2 damage means that bombers should theoretically cause more damage than I lose on SBRs . . .  but man I always breathe a sigh of relief when red dice don’t show up for interceptors and ack ack. I’m just glad bombers came back and I at least equaled the damage for the loss of the bomber. I’ve had too many runs where I send 7 bombers out at different targets and have 5 of them shot down. (true story)

And hey look, SBR first. I done good.  :wink:

[gamerman01]

@seththenewb:

And hey look, SBR first. I done good.  :wink:

I noticed!  I’m pleased.

Yeah, it’s hard to beat perfection.
Double miss on AA and then double sixes (fancy that)

Bomb run on Moscow close to average - a bit in my favor since your bombers missed me, you lost a bomber on a 42% chance, but then got slightly above average damage rolls… (average of 4,4)
So we’re both happy we averted disaster… I’m thrilled to have 2 fighters still alive for counter-attacks…

I think I can sneak in this Russian move quick, here…

[gamerman01]

'bout freaking time I hit a tech (referring to Wheatbeer game also)

Kind of a weak one, though…

[seth4god]

What’d you get?

[seth4god]

Ah, improved mech. I’d take that no question.

I’m assuming you didn’t get Hvy Bombers since some of that chart would be just useless for you. Still chart 2 does have some good ones … .  but probably chart one is the right call for USSR.

[gamerman01]

Yeah, and even though the increase attack power is negligible in all practicality, the ability to blitz could come in handy

A tech hit is a tech hit, I always say.  If I hit again I’ll get something better.

[seth4god]

Was the rest of Russia coming or were you mulling that over still?
