Cow (allies +13) vs. Bold

thanks, may it be a great game and hopefully luck isn’t the total decider lol

Let the sub fight, and if you get one hit before I do in 106, lose the destroyer and have the sub submerge.

and no scramble.

@simon33 said in 2025 OOB Playoff round 1 Simon33(L+40) vs Booper:

Terrible dice in China, Hunan attack should have worked.

Yeah, lots of extremes already on the attacking powers turns:
Germany +5.5
Japan -5.67
China -3.83
UK +3.33
