Bombsaway (allies +10) vs Hank13 (axis)

@BombsAway:

I think you’re getting the scramble option and SBR interceptors confused.  There is no limit to the # of fighters that can intercept.  I should of had 10 defending fightes.  I suggest we roll the remaining 7@1 in form then go from there.  What are your thoughts?

Somehow in the dozens of games I have played I never learned this rule! I had no idea that you could have unlimited intercepts. Knowing this I would have never sent 5 planes against your 10. I don’t like claiming ignorance (nor do I think it is a really valid excuse for someone who has played as much as I have) but I would prefer to take back my sbr. If you are not OK with this, we can roll the 7, but I think this will be a game changer.

Thanks. I am both surprised and embarrassed that I didn’t know that rule.

Hey sorry for the delay. I have a sick kid at home and next to no time to sit in front of the computer. I am also going out of town from Thursday to Monday and probably will not be able to post. I will do my best to get my turn down tomorrow or Wednesday.

Again, sorry for the delay(s), I appreciate your understanding.
