I think it was a safe assumption that your fighter wouldn’t scramble from Guam, but it rolled a 5 anyway…… let me know if you take issue with this - if you want to scramble we could roll the cruiser/battleship and if they miss, proceed to round 2.
I also assumed the loss of a sub in 54 on my lucky hit. However, you very well may want to lose something different to keep a concentration of USA attack power.
If you want to make any changes, I will need to re-visit my noncombat move before you move USA
Please do not hesitate to speak up if you do not like either of these assumptions.
You certainly got your hits in, but I was lucky here and there too. A nailbiter in Sze - I won’t spoil it by announcing it here at the top of the thread….
High drama
haha, ur assumptions were correct.
i’ll keep movin.
