I am going to attack sz42 w/everything the usa can throw at it…please provide me your OOL.

[ArtofWar1947]

hit 1 on undamaged BB, hits 2-5 on CV1 & CV2, hits 6-8 on the 3 TACs, hits 9 & 10 on the CAs, hits 11 & 12 on CV3, hits 13-14 on first two fighters, hits 15 & 16 on CV4, hits 17-19 on last 3 fighter, hits 20 & 21 on BBs.

[ArtofWar1947]

Reverse the order for hits 9 & 10 and 11 & 12. The correct OOL is:

hit 1 on undamaged BB, hits 2-5 on CV1 & CV2, hits 6-8 on the 3 TACs, hits 9 & 10 on on CV3, hits 11 & 12 the CAs, hits 13-14 on first two fighters, hits 15 & 16 on CV4, hits 17-19 on last 3 fighter, hits 20 & 21 on BBs.

[ArtofWar1947]

It seems unlikely that I can save 2 CVs, so my re-revised OOL is:

hit 1 on undamaged BB, hits 2-5 on CV1 & CV2, hits 6 on a TAC, hits 7 & 8 on  CV3, hits 9 & 10 on the 3 remaining 2 TACs, hits 11 & 12 on first two fighters,  hits 13-14 on the CAs, hits 15 & 16 on CV4, hits 17-19 on last 3 fighter, hits 20 & 21 on BBs.

If it gets to the point where the Japanese have 1 CV, 3 Fighters, and 2 BBs left and must take 1 more hit, then sacrifice a third fighter so as not to leave the CV damaged. That is, I would prefer to end with 1 CV with 2 fighters on it (+ 2 BBs) rather than a damaged CV (with no fighters + 2 BBs + 3 fighters on Java).

since naval battles aren’t done perfectly on triple A. I will roll this battle here and you can select your loses as the battle goes on, just as we were face to face….I will send you a file for your records shortly….

[ArtofWar1947]

Sounds like a good plan.

here is the file with the usa purchase and combat moves…I am going to roll the big naval battle here and then edit the results in and then roll the remainder of the use move.
