Shattered about that US fleet being wiped out. Didn’t even realise you had anything in range let alone enough to take it out.

[champinoman]

Forgot to click to post the British turn and I don’t think it’s possible to do it after clicking ‘done’.

Make sure you look at the history to see what happened considering out of the 3 turns I just played the British was the only one where anything actually happened.

Yeah, that’s interesting. I guess ‘ships’ refers to surface naval only, similar to how the kamikaze rules work.

[Thurhame]

Also, launch interceptors in Russia?

Bombing raid in Russia: 3 bombers
1 fighter available to intercept

[champinoman]

Full Scramble in the UK. Risk time!

No intercept in Russia. Hopefully AA does it’s job :P

[Thurhame]

Oh come on! Two AA casualties?  :cry:

[Thurhame]

On the bright side, luck is on my side in the sea battle.

I’m assuming you take the 4 hits of my initial volley on the sub, destroyer, cruiser, and French fighter. If you want the destroyer to survive, let me know; that’ll change the dynamics of the battle.

[champinoman]

I’d have preferred the luck in the sea battle tbh. Nevermind!

I kind of need the destroyer to survive to have any chance of saving the transports. However with 4 hits in the first round I think it’s better to just lose the transports in the hope of winning the battle above the water.
