2016 JDOW (Axis) vs strategic planner (allies +24)

@JDOW:

And why didn’t you send your US bombers from London to sz91 to support the destroyer? Forgot it?

In case you wanna send them in, just let me know. So the DD will die as my sub got the hit but I would allow you to roll 2 dice in the forum @4 in order to kill the sub (unless you wanted to send your bombers elsewhere and did not let them support 91 on purpose)

I could roll those dice on the forum if you like.

please roll the dice for the bomber and yes I forgot the bomber.

so the plan is: redo us turn BUT kill off destroyer via edit mode, do midway and unload all, let sub submerge in 91, THEN do unload trannys

improvement is important. I have the first edition rules so I will keep those handy as I move turns.

and I looked on the spreadsheet and youre an elite player - that’s really good!!

@JDOW:

In addition you - and I of course believe unintended - kind of cheated in the battle at sz25. You removed 2 damage from 2 carries but only added 1 damage to the battleship.

So you need to add another damage to either a cruiser or a fighter. Ill take of a fighter, you can change to cruiser or tac or bomber if you like later.

oh yes - the fig can stay dead and it was unintentional. I realized my planes couldn’t land and so I edited damages away from the carriers. and then I thought I had added enough but I didn’t.

I think part of my problem is I have four games going on at once. I am unfortunately about to lose a couple of them so it will be freed up after then. I think I am getting mixed up between games.

About the Japanese sub… I am not really sure, I figured it stayed coexisting… or not. I read the turn summaries and maps but not the dice emails.

@JDOW:

I took off a cruiser in sz25 as a fighter would have more defense, however you can change if you like.

cruiser dead, fighter alive. Thanks!
