Jap 12 combat attached.

Big battle at Carolines. Japan scored 11 hits round 1, the sub missed, please assign casualties.
I can’t promise to finish the move tonight, its bed time but I wanted to post before that.

p.s.: Sorry I forgot to post combat moves before I rolled. However I guess this should be affect anything even in theory.

triplea_37262_Jap12combat.tsvg

gamerman01

Well, crap. I finally make a mistake and you roll up more than a hit, to boot
And of course your infantry have no trouble winning with no losses, even on the heels of my Java disaster
Well I didn’t mean to give Japan this attack, but it ought to hurt them pretty bad and help Asia anyway

So take off the 3 subs, damage 3 carriers, and lose 5 destroyers
Dang, this game just got longer
Stinking carriers. Man, you needed this badly. Japan was getting squeezed
Nice move

JDOW

Continuing now, I had to reload the map. I assume the dice will be the same if I click on the battle again. If not, I will roll in the forum.

JDOW

Okay, you got your reveng, you scored 11 hits total in defense, so this battle might be a shortcut to the end.

JDOW

Sir, I can’t explain that, I accidently took one plane too little off at Caro. Obviously only 6 planes could land and after the clearence at Caro, the casualty choice is not affected.
So I hope you don’t mind if I leave the damaged battleship.
However I don’t know how to add a damaged battle ship to the map. So I add an undamaged battleship. I assume you kill it anyway so you can roll that on the forum. ok?

All together the Allied defense was I don’t know how many hits above average. So we might have found a shortcut now.

And a double 3 as convoy roll after you scored 7 damage with 2 subs the round before. :)

So you got the dice you were waiting for.
After that turn now I believe Japan is the biggest loser dicewise in this game.
The air strike went 1 above average for you in terms of planes, the Chinese gambit one below. However from there we had 5/9 AA, the Caro battle and an way above average convoy rolls always all the time.

I think we are moving towards even dice-wise meanwhile.

JDOW

Oh, once second please, I might reconsider NCM, let me think please.

JDOW

mhh… no, go ahead please.

gamerman01

Wow, I was just hoping I wouldn’t roll way down
Yes, looks like a big-time makeup, so you get a break from my complaining!
Can’t even look now, was just going out the door and thought you might need another choice
At a glance I think I agree with your analysis though

Chalk it up to curse of the clever - you are the clever one :|

gamerman01

To add a damaged unit, you add the unit, then you click on it, then you click “edit unit damage” or something like that.

Here’s some good news for you, 2 American air down already, and more bombers are vulnerable as I got a poor roll in Z46

What do you take the 1 hit to?
