Yeah, zone 8 is probably gonna hurt pretty bad, but I like the move of hoping for a hit from 2 infantry and losing the plane first. It’s a veteran move, especially out in the middle of the Pacific - the dice just didn’t cooperate for you. Though it’s still kind of nice to kill 2 infantry without any losses…

OK, I think they improved the Triple A handling of SBR a bit, but it’s still not right. It rolled both AA together in India even though I was trying to bomb 2 different facilities.
The first die was a 1, which I would normally think of as the tactical bomber - weakest to strongest, so I removed it. If you take issue with that, we can roll a die to determine which aircraft was shot down.
No, is fine thanks.
I see I have Nips a plenty in my backyard. Ouch!
Goodnight.
Nice guys finish last :lol:

Morning. Scramble to Carolines?
No
My one sub hit. Can I take the Carrier as first casualty? I am not trying to take the Aleutians and we cabn edit it back and the planes back on, if necessary.
it is that or a Sub.
got 4 more, so took both your Subs and two of the DDS
I am afraid te luck is with me and I might sink the DDs.
You only hit 3 times, so I lost all 3 DDs, leaving Sub, Ft. Ft and Bb.
My sub hit again and I took off your DD, so you still have the Carrier. I will lose my Sub straightaway, so I cannot only hit the damaged Carrier.
You only got one hit that round, then the lone Ft hit again on the last round. I did maximum defence, but yiy got none of the rolls. I hope you do not think that I did anything wrong.

The AI had two inf saved up from my last Pacific turn. I checked and cannot see them placed or any edits.
I am sorry I did not notice. Please look and see if I took a different unit for them. I doubt I would have not wanted plain old Inf though. I can’t imagine why I would not have noticed not placing them.

Looking over your posts and not at the game, it seems you did fine. Don’t apologize for the luck - you needed it
I’ll check out the infantry thing when I’m ready to play - I never noticed anything wrong before this USA turn…
Looked like I did not place them. Wanted you to agree with the AI.
Have a fun day.

Yes, it appears you clicked through on UK4 and did not place them. So you placed them on UK5 - it’s fine since it was inadvertent (since it is against the rules to not place units that you can place)
It’s fine, no worries
