I broke it down like this:

5 in 36 (max 3)
2 in 20
4 in 19
2 in 6

So a total of 11.  New rules on convoying don’t come into play.

D’oh!  I forgot we aren’t rolling anymore!

OK, by using the new no rolls convoy, I count 16 damage total.

Not sure where you’re getting 20 from.  Am I overlooking something?

Hrm.

2 in 36
4 in 20
4 in 19
4 in 6

Yea, that does look like 14.

@Gamerman01:

You guys have a heck of a game going, no?  What round is it actually?  :-)

That was Japan 13 if I haven’t lost count. :P

I’m thinking this game might be too well balanced.  We might be able to go back and forth like this forever.

(now watch as Noz pulls his win move out of nowhere!)

So I needed more submarines to get the maximum in ALL TT’s? I thought it was counted for each TT. At least that is what I could make out of the rules.

Yes you did need more.� No it’s not for each territory, it’s like 2nd edition in that way.

In light of this, if you’d like to have more subs in those SZs, I’m happy to edit things that way.
