Ok, the battle has gotten to the point that there is a real decision to be made for OOL. Japanese need to decide whether to keep their DD.

Americans have fired and scored two remaining hits on:

Americans still have:
3subs
1dd
3ftr

Cruiser
dented BB.

Yet to face the wrath of 2@2, 2@3 and 3@4.

@Odonis:

submerge your ss in 91 or keep in the battle? Also, max defense, or want to see the results of the first round?

Stay up for the first round at least.

First hit to dent CV. Not too sure after that.

Keep DD first round if German sub is still alive, which it should be.

Max D generally. I’m hoping I don’t die badly here. Seems 54% to you.

Going to say that the sub should have been taken as a casualty in SZ91. The fleet was defending 4 TTs so even a small chance is more worthwhile than keeping a sub. I would say that I would keep a fighter in spite of the lack of a CV - I still would even if it would sink which in this case it would not.

Let’s roll the bomber vs fighter here:

German bomber:
Rolling 1d6:
(6)

US fighter:
Rolling 1d6:
(4)
