What is it with Siberia? it is not funny.
Please choose 5 casualties in SZ16.

Edwin is taking a look.

Siberia  :-D

Was an after thought too. Was conserving the TT in SZ6 for Non combat. I thought I would lose one Inf.

I didn’t expect such a large welcoming committee.  OOL:  BB 1 hit, sub, 2 cr, 1 ftr.  Won’t take a hit on a cv this round and then have you retreat.  Bat Calc gives you 30% win.

Odds  don’t scare me. Needed  6 hits, although 5 was the expected number.
Adam: you have lost us the gane with your awful G1. Then silly I1.
I am having fun with my enemies , all by myself.

Sorry Ed. My attack paid off, despite only 3 hits on R2.

I protest, after you continued fighting, I expected to give more OOL orders based on second round dice.  Since I think I inflicted only 4 hits on you round 1, I expected you to continue the attack, so I would have gone max defense, all hits on cv.

I apologise. I sank the CV with its load, as i only had three hits. I forgot you had list a Ft on  R1.

I should have sunk 1 cv round 1 and saved a cr and ftr.  Would have given me 5 points more defense.  My dice didn’t help.  I accept the results, your pick of casualties in round 2 matched my OOL pref from round 1.  I would have traded dice in Siberia with the dice in the sea battle.  I won the inconsequential and lost the expensive one.

You lost the CV and took a hit on your undamaged one? Is that right? So you are owed a FT roll of 4. I made a mistake.
Tell me what you would like to do.

Is what you just aid fair to you? I wamrted to ask OOl on R2, but was convinced you could not say otherwise. But I had forgotten the lost Ft on R1. You should not pay for my mistake.

I think we give you a 4 roll. If it hits, then we redo R4 completely.

Rolling 1d6:
(1)

Instead of redoing the entire round, choose your extra casualty and roll once for the unit that would have died, to see if it would have hit me in the next round

If you are sure. Had to be a Ft, asI had three.

Rolling 1d6:
(3)

So, what does that mean ? I am confused.

Perhaps I have 3 units left on round 3, the ftr, plus another ftr that should not have died in round 4.  This is confusing.

Meant to say 3 units left on round 5, so I get 2 more hits on round 5.  Plus maybe the first fighter gets to roll on round 4 also?

I thinbk I would have to retreat after R2. You had the damaged CV and damaged Battleship and three Fts. I would have 5 unuts only, giving me 18 vs 18.
