Tough call, but will go ahead and scramble 2 fighters, 1 tac.
OOL: subs, DD, tac, cruiser, fighters
I’m maybe a bit impatient now, but it’s crazy and pointless to scramble, so I proceed without a scramble.

Just looking and thinking right now. Let me know if you want to reconsider anything.
Volgoda was wild! When I saw that, and realized I hadn’t even thought to check for that possibility, I was like, oh well! Nice knowing ya, tac!
You defend like crazy. It’s so many battles now that I reckon TripleA is biased. ;)
And actually I also hit like a granny.
In my experience, these things come back to bite you when you least expect it, and it hurts the most. I fully expect I’ll be attacking with 100% odds in a massive battle, and lose somehow. Seen it happen enough times that it’s easy to get gunshy
Alea acta est. You go ahead.

You have two Kamis - want to use them?
I feel stupid. First intended to move my two Philly-air to sz6, but then wanted to be more agressive.
Yes, kamikaze on. One on the des and one on a ac. I suspect the battle is 1 des, 2 ac and 8 fig against my fleet by Tokyo.
Your guess is correct! I’ve got like a 2/3 shot at this.
Time for Japan to shine. I must defend well sometime…

You’re doing alright - both the Kamis hit, and I only got three hits round 1, which I used to tilt the carriers. Now I’ve got 4 more.
Checking.
Think I need to go with max def. 2 des and 2 ac goes down.
