14L G50 hobo (axis) vs vold (allies +11)

[hobo]

yes, scramble all for italy.

for caroline I would have kept the capital ships so the last round should have been a carrier roll instead of a tac.  based on the dice roll sequence, it would not have mattered since I still got the one hit needed but we can reroll here if you want.

ugh - I borked that italy OOL too.  Results are fine but I dislike splashing planes on either side.

I should find a way to play after my coffee and not before  :x

[hobo]

slight problem, you rolled twice for z97.  if you forgot to scramble the fighters on the first roll, you should have paused and finished the battle here.  good or bad, I always want the first dice thrown to count.  I guess same applies to iraq which was rolled twice too.  in this case both the second rolls were advantageous for you.  I would prefer we go with the first rolls and continue from there, which means you got 4 hits in the first round and I got 2 hits, plus 3 fighters to roll.  you can ask for a third party ruling if you disagree.

[Vold]

You’re right - I was in a rush to get to work (my first problem) and didn’t scramble your fighters.  I tapped through sz97 and withdrew from Iraq, then just pulled down the file and re-did it without thinking twice about it.

We can use the original dice, no worries.  It’ll take a bit of effort to untangle the dice but I have some time.

[Vold]

OK, starting with the file from the post “Combat Adjustment in Iraq” and ignoring the other files posted:

Iraq - 1 art, 6 inf (1 cruiser) vs. 3 inf

Cruiser shore fire (from MARTI dice email)
Your dice are: 3
1 hit

Round 1 (from MARTI dice email):
Your dice are: 1,5,2,5,1,5,6
Assuming it’s 2@2 and 4@1, that’s 2 hits.

3/3 hits total in Iraq

Iraq Defense 3 inf (from MARTI dice email 8:10)
Your dice are: 2,3,4
1 hit

Conclusion - 1 art, 5 inf in Iraq.  All per the 8:10 MARTI emails.

sz next….

[Vold]

SZ 97 - Round 1
UK: 1 bomber, 1 cruiser, 1 destroyer, 3 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber, 1CV

UK dice: Your dice are: 5,2,4,6,5,6,3
2 hits (you mentioned 4, but if the dice are in order then I only see 2, the cruiser and tac)

Italians: 1 battleship, 2 cruisers, 1 destroyer and 1 transport
Your dice are: 2,6,5,1 (2 hits)
Italians: 3 fighters
Rolls: 3@3; Total Hits: 23@3: (2, 2, 4)

[Vold]

sz97 - Round 2
Italians hit 4 times, I’ll take the CV (x2), cruiser and dd.
UK hit 2 times, I’ll pull the dd and 1 cruiser

UK: 1 bomber, 3 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber
2 at 4, 3 at 3
Rolls: 2@4; Total Hits: 12@4: (5, 3)
Rolls: 3@3; Total Hits: 23@3: (1, 5, 2)

italy: 1 battleship, 1 cruiser, and 3 fighters
4 at 4, 1 at 3
Rolls: 4@4; Total Hits: 24@4: (6, 6, 1, 1)
Rolls: 1@3; Total Hits: 11@3: (2)

[Vold]

I should have damaged your battleship instead of taking the cruiser - cruiser here

Rolls: 1@3; Total Hits: 01@3: (6)

[Vold]

sz 97 - Round 2 results
UK 3 hits, Italy 3 hits
UK will pull 2 fighters and 1 tac
I’ll pull 2 cruisers and a fighter for Italy

UK will withdraw, 1 bomber and 1 fighter
Italy has 1 damaged battleship, 1 tt and 2 fighters

Noodle through the results if you don’t mind and make sure I got it right.  You mentioned that I had 4 hits in round 1 but I only saw 2, if you are correct I’d like to get those hits and possibly re-evaluate the combat depending on what you pull.

On why I simply re-rolled, I’ve seen a couple of examples in League where battles were simply scrapped and re-done if the initial force wasn’t set correctly and I just placed this scenario into that category.  I should have pinged you about it and I apologize for that - I was in a rush to do a quick turn and get to work as I mentioned, I should have waited until I had more time.

The adjusted file is attached.  Ignore the history for those battles.

I see why you added back the carrier, but can you refresh my memory on why you wouldn’t take a hit out?

Sorry, it’s been a long day - heh
