I think that was my last meaningful Allied turn.
I moved the sub in 95, because I would have redone UK go otherwise and I don’t have the time to download and redo Combat.
Enjoy uour next few goes!

@wittmann:

I think that was my last meaningful Allied turn.

Hey, you lasted 10 rounds with the champ! That’s more than Leon Spinks can say! (90 seconds against Mike Tyson, if I recall correctly)

gamerman01

Nice move on East Persia - I’m pretty sure I fell asleep there seeing only 2 ground units and not considering all that air power. 'course you lucked out, too, but that’s the attacker’s advantage - the ability to retreat. A very nice move and it paid off big. Now let’s see if India misses her air defenses…. maybe you luck out there too. If I even attack…

Witt

Thanks, but will be a pyrrhic battle, if I lose India.
Just wanted you to be aware that I do still have some bite, when cornered!
Off to work, so have a fun evening. Lots of sport tomorrow too.

@wittmann:

There’s no doubt there

You sure could have had more luck in 97 though…… :-(

Witt

Italy is back in the game!
Should I have moved my fleets into the Med? But then no Normandy Attack (Bombardmenrd both missed) and the risky S France Attack would have been impossible.
It seems whatever I do, you have another option open.
Is frustrating.

gamerman01

I’m afraid I can’t answer that at this time :-)

I knew it!

OK, I really dislike how Triple A doesn’t handle fleet battles with subs correctly, requiring casualty choices prematurely and everything, so the big showdown in 110 will be rolled here

German onslaught:
Subs: Dice Rolls: 2@2; Total Hits: 12@2: (1, 6)
Rest Dice Rolls: 2@2 12@3 1@4; Total Hits: 52@2: (4, 5)12@3: (5, 3, 3, 6, 5, 4, 5, 6, 4, 3, 3, 3)1@4: (6)

gamerman01

You lucked out there
Was starting to feel bad for you after South Africa, but as soon as I do that, my opponent gets lucky

OK, you would take a hit to the battleship, the 3 carriers, and 2 destroyers, I imagine

Defense Dice Rolls: 6@2 2@3 7@4; Total Hits: 96@2: (3, 2, 5, 3, 1, 4)2@3: (1, 6)7@4: (3, 5, 3, 3, 4, 4, 1)

gamerman01

I really didn’t need to make this attack - you only have 1 transport of each nation in 110 and separately, neither fleet (UK or US) is all that powerful, and I could keep you out of 112 forever, so this is the wrong move but of course I can absorb a bad battle here and am just going for the win

I lose 2 carriers, 2 subs, 2 destroyers, and the cruiser, so all my boats are sunk in 1 round

gamerman01

11 fighters, 1 bomber vs. 1 destroyer, 3 damaged carriers, 2 cruisers, 6 fighters, and a damaged battleship

Well, it’s 37 punch against 42 and 12 units against 13, so I guess I’m not horribly disadvantaged yet even after a disastrous round 1 so I’ll go again

Dice Rolls: 11@3 1@4; Total Hits: 611@3: (2, 5, 2, 5, 6, 2, 1, 5, 5, 5, 3)1@4: (3)

gamerman01

Now I need to wait for your casualty choice because carriers are more valuable than fighters and could be auto-repaired if they survive

Please select 6 more casualties (amazing how many times round 1 rolls don’t get more hits than round 2 rolls) and let me know if I was wrong to select 3 carriers, battleship, and 2 destroyers in round 1.

Going to bed now - will finish this off tomorrow afternoon

gamerman01

Be sure to specify nationalities - you have mixed destroyers, mixed cruisers, mixed fighters…… quite the fleet you’ve amassed
