I can’t open that file.
I can try it again Thursday after a re-boot
If all else fails, you or I need to re-create that Russian move

Sometimes it does that when you confuse it -
I think in my experience it’s when I’m in history and on a line that is in edit mode, and exit history from there.  I now try to always exit history when it is on a line that is not edit mode.  Just a possibility, for your future reference

If you can honestly say you would have scrambled from Guam, you can roll the fighter defending against the cruiser/battleship

When I said you could re-roll it, I meant re-roll.  I would not expect you to keep the 5.  As JDOW says, the defender gets every advantage when the attacker blows through a decision like this.

I understand keeping all dice rolled as much as possible, but that was not my intent.  I should have been even more clear, but I thought when I said “you can roll the fighter against the cruiser/battleship” you would catch my meaning, that you would roll dice for the cruiser/battleship, and then roll anew for your fighter (for round 1).  Keeping the die roll if it was a miss, would kind of screw you over in a way, and since I was the one taking the liberty, I did not want to give you any disadvantage whatsoever.

Do you ever make assumptions like this?  If so, how do you handle it?

Thanks for the honest reply, that you would not have scrambled.
