i dont know what is going on. i did the chinese turn but seems like i am unable to post. i attack japan with thre inf and a fighter. loss one on each side

then during americas turn i must somehow not selected the scramble. i did not see any other option than reroll. but in any case my subs hit twice in both scenarios

i also rolled for the bomber/dest in first scenario. no need to reroll that in my opinion. if you are ok with that i will edit in my bomber

i tried two posts with the chinese at least the edited post is there

i took the liberty of adding the american bomber to london as indicated above

@Pherman1215:

I have issues with your USA turn.  First that I would not have lost a dd before a fighter in SZ 6 while you still had a submarine left.  The 2nd is why does the turn you posted show my DD hitting but you editing your USA bomber back on to UK?  You don’t get to roll a battle twice and pick which outcome you like best.Â

First of all I wont be able to post before sunday

Then to your issues. I did not see the need to reroll the bomber combat from the original turn. The SZ 6 battled had to be rerolled because your scramble was not selected. I believe the bomber combat was done before the sz 6 battle. But in any case loosing the bomber is no big deal if you think this is the way to go. I am fine with that, but I disagree with the statement that I roll twice and pick the best outcome. I have played with open cards and told you what is going on.

Then to the sz 6 battle. I think this is a little more tricky. I ask you for scramble and tokens. You answer that and if you wanted a spesific OOL you could have indicated that. In any case I pick what I think makes the most sense for you in the given situation. You have a carrier, a destroyer and 3 fighters. Total defending value of 16 so you easily score 3 hits in round 1, killing all my subs. When you only happen to score 2 hits I understand your frustration. But if you want to keep your destroyer then you will have to loose a fighter to my third hit

If you won’t accept the way the slection is done. We can reroll, but then I will insist that round 1 stands. I score 3 hits and you score 2 hits. You are left with 2 fighters and a destroyer. I have a sub, 2 fighers and a bomber. I don’t think this is a better battle for you than the actual battle fought. But in any case this can be resolved by forum dice. Let me know what you like to do!

@Pherman1215:

You can’t “insist” that round one stands.  By league rules I would be allowed to have the battle re rolled from the beginning since I wasn’t given the option to keep my dd.  It’s fine though, we can just play sz 6 as is.  The bomber still confuses me because you claim you “saw no reason” to re-roll the battle, but then you re-rolled the battle.  Â

I will take the bomber out. I can be wrong here. Please remove the bomber. I will also be carefull with giving you OOL in all future battles

If you are fine with this, remove the bomber from London and go ahead with Italy
