wrong map.
Not really sure if the 4 destroyers would have been better off with the Allied Fleet or blocking the Japanese…it’s an aweful lot of RNG (Random Number Generator) for the Japanese to hit all 4 sea zones…seen it done a lot, but I’ve seen it blow up too with 3 or 4 fighters lost.
I’m not going to hit all the destroyers, this round.

Yea. No real need too. Kill the British and Australian ones which are the most important there (due to proximity).

Ship blocking is only expensive if they miss!
Gunna think for a bit…didnt see them tactical bombers from KWE. (I do now, didn’t then.)
No problem. If you win this game, you will be the first to have bested me in a game where I pulled off a successful sea lion.
I figured you would not have put your fleet there if you realized I could hit it with 10 planes, and it would have been even worse and far more one sided if you hadn’t blocked all 4 possible paths for the ships (and you didn’t in the original post).
