Thank you for the set-up!
No scrambling in SZ111
Full scrambling in SZ110
its up to you. Definitely I had a good round of dice there. When I calculated it I was getting an average of about 80 and you got 45. On the other hand, I think you have two fighters that can’t land if you tilt the carrier. So the casualties you have to take as a result of that might narrow the difference a little.

true, but now you blow my BB and transport. If I choose sub casualities I can save my carrier with two planes. You can still blow it up but will hopefully cost you some air

let me think about it some more,
no problem. Definitely you are more likely to get a good trade on my air if you redo. And its a hard target for me to pass up.
@farmboy said in Farmboy (Axis +2) vs Oysteilo (Allies) BM:
One thing I thought it might be worth reminding you of (just in case you forgot as this game has been going on for a while) is that this game has gone this far because you were generous enough to let me take a low luck reroll of the attack on Paris. In return, you also get to take a low luck redo of a combat.
I will use my option now. I might not get a better candidate than this
but it wont be before tomorrow
@oysteilo makes sense. And no problem.
i am sticking with the current situation. Sorry for all the debating. The current situation might have some advantages too
No problem. I can understand the difficulty there.
