13L G40.2 AllWeNeedIsLove vs BombsAway(allies +9)

[allweneedislove]

i see that you got good dice in china. i am sure that the sz91 battle had no influence on your chinese attacks so feel free to keep those dice.

[BombsAway]

@allweneedislove:

thanks for the clarification.

to resolve this we can go back to where the error was made and correct it. ignoring all rolls after the error.
you can roll round 2 here on the forum. the results could be better than the illegal rolls for either of us. but i hope my one extra hit swings the balance in my favour.

No problem, I’m pretty easy going.  However, I wouldn’t consider it an “error”, as it wasn’t a legal roll as you had not given your OOL.  Also, one wonders, if you had scored more hits would we be having this conversation.

Ok, so I will pick it up from round one.  America scored 3 hits.  Germany already scored 1 hit with the subs and will now roll for; 1 carrier, 1 cruiser, 1 destroyer, 2 fighter.

[BombsAway]

Been a while bare with me  :-)

1 carrier, 1 cruiser, 1 destroyer, 2 fighter
Rolls: 2@2 1@3 2@4; Total Hits: 22@2: (1, 5)1@3: (6)2@4: (5, 1)

[BombsAway]

Different dice same result.  Keep going?

[allweneedislove]

i think we are still having a communication problem.

i believe that the first email rolls should be the one that we use. there was no need to roll my first round defence dice a third time.

let me know if i understand your view point.
you believe the first email dice sent should not be used as i had not given my order of loss yet.

i believe we should go back the the point in time of the mistake and correct it. if you double roll a battle it should be up to the opponent to decide if they want to keep the first or second roll.

[allweneedislove]

@BombsAway:

… Also, one wonders, if you had scored more hits would we be having this conversation…

yes i would still bring it up if i noticed a double roll. but if i scored more hits on the 2nd roll i would probably let you know that i wanted to keep the 2nd set of rolls.

[allweneedislove]

i am also fairly lenient on little slip ups and edits.

i do believe that we should use the first set up dice and if either of us make an error it is up to the opponent to decide how to correct it.

in this case i think the most logical solution is to use the original roll and play on from there.
if this offends you, feel free to keep the 2nd set of results and play on from here.

[BombsAway]

Not offended in the least.  Never even considered keeping that roll, in my mind the game is suspended until your pending decision.  Anyway, it’s shaping up to be a good game, so lets put it behind us.

Picking things up in round 2

USA
2fig cruiser bmb
Rolls: 3@3 1@4; Total Hits: 33@3: (3, 6, 1)1@4: (2)
Germany des cv cruiser 2fig
Rolls: 2@2 1@3 2@4; Total Hits: 32@2: (2, 6)1@3: (3)2@4: (6, 2)

[BombsAway]

America retreats with a Bomber.  Germany has 3 hits to allocate.

P.S. What is the abbreviation for cruisers anyway?

[allweneedislove]

keep the fighters.

i am not sure but i would go with cru, or just type the whole thing out.

[allweneedislove]

bump

[BombsAway]

Busy weekend.  Will be home in ~4hrs will play Britain’s turn then.

[allweneedislove]

yeah i am happy with the results.
it is strange to lose the most important battle and be happy but all the small ones more than made up for it.

i choose your ool in sz92, feel free to edit to a different ool if you like.
