Full scramble both SZ112, SZ97.

Lose BBs last. Max D.

@max334:

… you win. I surrender unconditionally, well maybe one condition. Show me how I post my loss and how do they keep record?

Really? I see you lost 112, 96 and Ethiopia in the dice emails but Taranto succeeded. UK have had a pretty major setback I suppose. Most people will manually post a save of the state of the game at the end of the battles, just so it’s easy to see why you’re conceding.

I don’t quite understand the SZ112 attack. It was a negative expected value if I scrambled and required stripping some other attacks of units.

If you really want to concede round one, post in this thread: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=41282.225
Gamerman01 will see it and put it in the spreadsheet.

Can you post the result in the thread I linked above?

@JDOW:

@max334:

… you win. I surrender unconditionally, well maybe one condition. Show me how I post my loss and how do they keep record?

Wow that’s odd. Is this your allied strategy to run suicide mission in turn 1 and surrender if they do not work?
Also, in case you want to take risks, I am surprised you did not choose they way more juice target in Holland. 4 tacs that can be killed with 55% chance sounds way better than the 39% odds in 112.
Also, Holland would not have been a do or die mission. Even if Germans e.g. win with 1 Tac remaining the battle would have been a success. Just skip 97 in that case and safely take 96 down and you have a game.

Hmm, I’ve never run the numbers on that Holland attack. No one has ever made that attack - I guess there would be another fighter there if it lived through the SZ111 battle. Probably should put the third AA Gun there in that outcome.
