OOL SZ41?
3 hits first round.
Not a good attack since the landing didn’t succeed, but oh well.

Tip two carriers and lose the destroyer.
Round 2 and beyond if you keep fighting:
cruiser,

fighter *3,

Didn’t continue, but had to kill Triple-A, so you might get two sets of dice. I’ll edit back to be the same as the first result.

No problem, crashes happen. I have never had another player cheat with his dice rolls.

@Arthur:
Nice for the Germans. You won’t be doing any more amphibious assaults on Europe for the rest of the game.
I have to try a few things in this game because I’m well behind.

It is just a matter of time at this point. Another European victory city will fall in a while and there is no way for the Allies to stop it. Let me know when you are ready to start a new game; we can switch sides with the same bid if you want.

Let’s do the Japanese turn. Curious to see what you’d do. If it goes how I expect, we can call it then.

I’d rather a rematch with the same sides/bid.
The cruiser dying in SZ96 UK1 is a 2.7% possibility. Yes, I didn’t handle it properly, but still I’d like another go without such a disastrous start.

The chance of that cruiser/fighter failing to kill the transport in SZ96 is 5%. I have had it happen way too many times… that is why I purchase a couple of land units for the UK in Africa to make sure that the Italians are quickly eliminated from that continent. Those artillery in China were quite useful, but I still prefer going after Italy hard to begin the game. If they get an income up to 30+ per round, the Allies face an economic loss regardless of the fate of Moscow.
