Time to wail on the Russians

[Ghostglider]

I look forward to see which surprises you have ready for me  :-o

[Ghostglider]

Maybe next time I can send more than 1 subs to z97… I think if I had send more now I would have lost my fleet

Hehe, these back to back posts - On their own kinda funny!  :wink:

[gamerman01]

If those AA cannons are working like they have been the whole game, this is a very bad idea

[boldfresh]

@Gamerman01:

I hated the convoy dice rule before this game

yeah, they nailed ghost pretty good as well right?

[boldfresh]

AA can’t keep hitting at 50% can it?  OF COURSE IT CAN!!!  :evil:

A sub getting 4 in 109 is my highlight.  Turn before it was 1.  Don’t get me started, even though that’s pretty much what you’re trying to do

Your Russians fight a lot better than your French, Yugoslavs, and Greeks…

But no more AAA magic

Fight or submerge off coast of West Africa?

[gamerman01]

Yo, I need a little decision for a single sub off Africa.  My German turn is in limbo here

[gamerman01]

No biggie - I did my noncom anyway - let me know about that sub and I can finalize the turn

[Ghostglider]

SUB fight
When you hit:
If you have only 1 sub, OOL is SUB, DD
If you have 2 subs my OOL is DD, SUB - SUB will submerge

[gamerman01]

Thank you - you’re one of the best to play with

USA sub surprise strikeRolls: 1@1; Total Hits: 01@1: (6)

[gamerman01]

Rolls: 2@2; Total Hits: 12@2: (2, 6)Rolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 11@2: (2)

[gamerman01]

OK, you said if I have 2 subs and I score a hit, your OOL is DD, sub, so you lost your DD

So it’s sub vs. sub and you submerge.

Germany loses 1 sub, USA loses destroyer
