@bmnielsen:

Well damn. Didn’t consider for a second the dd and sub could reach from there. Nicely done. Putting the air on wake is a good one, really complicates all the fleet placement considerations.

Thanks - I was pretty excited that my scramble decision worked out for me too.  I was also happy you scored 2+ hits  :-D  I am getting good luck…

I am not looking to attack 37, if that’s any comfort…  :-)

Yes, scramble 3 fighters

Lose destroyer first in 110
Maximum defense in 91
Battleship hit, carrier hit, 2 destroyers, carrier, cruiser, 2 fighters, battleship

I’ll just have to make the best of it

But 3 fighters for a sub?  That’s terrible.  I overlooked that you could take the first hit to a battleship.  I’d better take Normandy this turn I guess, so at least it doesn’t immediately auto-repair and to deny you a fleet build.  Jeez.
