Yeah, the loss is huge for Japan there. Got very very lucky here.
Still, your position was so dominant, that i don’t think it was a necessity. You had more too lose than to win with that move.
But it’s fun to have some action like this. Have to admit : it wasn’t a trap to leave Anzac fgt behind, i just didn’t think you would go for this attack. Had you wiped the zone with only 3-5 planes lost, that would have been a great success.
Too bad that the dices got so horrible for you.
Now, that gives me a hell of a break in the pacific.

Well, this game has only days left….so I am pushing my luck where I see an advantage. I saw one there but it didn’t pan out.
Not that this matters for diddly squat, but sometimes I will reroll truly horrible dice to try to console myself that my move was indeed a good idea…

The move was not necessary, but it was today when I realized that a successful strafing attack with the Japanese would really, really give me a chance to win in the Pacific. Ok, enough whining by me. I just need time to cool off after this. It is your turn. Let’s see what else this game has in store. Maybe we can actually finish this game properly before I must concede do to life’s intrusion on a game. :-D

I guess the one positive that can come from this battle for me is that in any future games you better think long and hard about putting stuff out there that I may attack. I’m a crazy enough player that I just could do that. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah, that is the way I would view it too. Ahhhhhhhhhhh, good a bit of a chuckle, thanks Axisplaya.

I’m laughing right now because you couldn’t be more right.
-
Question, what exactly did you take as losses in the US naval battle where you sunk my 2 CV and fighters? I see you have a damaged BB. I am assuming you lost three other units?
-
oops…sorry.
I lost 2ss, 1dd, and get my BB damaged.
-
Just realised that since your 2 AC did only 1 hit, i have to take my casualties like that : 1ss, 2dd
So, when you play Italy, you can make the switch.
Sorry about that.
