16L G40 BM 2.0 Mr.Green vs Koala (allies)

[koala]

I triple checked that the movement and that```
#removed_units == #added_units

[Mistergreen]

It looks fine. I though you were hoping to snag another vc from me and perhaps praying for the possibility of a ‘Hail Mary’ attack on Japan. Let’s see if you can hold on long enough to take Berlin and Honolulu will be the 7th! But it looks like a hard task.  :-)

[Mistergreen]

Do you want to land the French infantry or will they be enjoying an extended cruise?  :-)

The french are forgotten… as always  :-D

They are sent home on a recreational vacation

[Mistergreen]

Contemplating bombing the airbase in Queensland I realized the allied fleet are heading for the bottom of the ocean whether I’m succesful or not. Want to adjust your ncm a little more or were you planning to make your last stand in sz54.  :-D

The last stand is planned. (The important thing was to prevent japanese soldiers in Sydney this turn, therefore the hopefully big enough blocker for your bomber ;))

To end this without a big clash seemed to be a shame.

Do what you have to do. The allied high command informed all personnel on the ships and on mainland defense. They were all free to leave with there families to the save fiji-islands. The families went, the sailors stayed.

So we have straightened all things out with ourselves and are not frightened on what to come.

If you hit the airbase with the german bomber, please intercept with all fighters.
Scrambling is mandatory for as much units as possible in the last fight  :-D

Those pilots may need a rest, they seem a little on the fritz after being uptaged by the aa crew. Are you sure you want to scramble?  :-D

On a more serious note, if the battle turn out badly for the Japanese do you prefer to save bb or fig and of what nationality?

Yes scramble everything please.

I haven’t done the math yet, but I think this battle could take 2+ rounds. And to specify an OOL in a naval battle is not so easy for me (have a little bit of a problem to predict all implications). Would you mind in rolling the battle in the forum?

So I can respond after every round on the casualties.

I’m online for at least another 30 minutes, so we could finish it today in the evening (23:34 is right now in my timezone).

regards  :-)

PS: tutorial on forum dice is here (used it myself for the first time today, in my other game)

[Mistergreen]

Do you mind if I just roll it in TripleA and post each round for you to choose instead?

[koala]

yeah no problem either :)

[koala]

so simply tell me how many hits you’ve made.

I have a gamefile open right now where I see our fleets

[Mistergreen]

13 hits.  :-)

[Mistergreen]

My guess is 5 tippable ships, 4 ss, 4 dd…  :-)
