You realize that currently you have a 76% chance to lose the German fleet to a British assault, right?
I think that’s reversed. I have a 24% chance.
I can scramble 3 fighers and you can’t bring the fighter from Gib now even if you build an AC.
Please confirm.
I mean you have a 24% chance. Seriously, but you did make me panic a little. :-o

I see the second cruiser, but how do you get the 4th fighter, unless you are planning to bring the French later?
Ok, that fear sometimes causes me to put the 2 transports in 113. Will you let me switch that?
Also, losing that German cruiser really does hurt. But that only happens in 1 out of 4.
Ah, Larry sniped a British fighter! Jerk!
Okay, that makes it 50/50
And I considered losing a plane instead of the cruiser
that’s what I should have done, lost the tac instead of the cruiser
ok, this is all at your option, but since we are play testing sea lion, will you let me lose a tac instead of the cruiser? I will also build the transports in 113 as I usually do.

Next time you know.
No big. Go for Japan. Then the Mighty Royal Navy can crush the upstart Kriegsmarine!
