All causalties should be taken account for, but I’d say it’s safe to say that I tip 2 G ac at this point.

13 more hits

Realize UK has a ton of air as well. That was a serious over-sight.
- 2 sub
- sink 2 I ac
- sink 2 G ac
- dmg 1 G ac
- 3 I des
- 1 G des
2 + 4 + 4 + 1 + 3 + 1 = 15 (incl sub hits)
-
Wait. Might re-evaluate.
-
Thinking perhaps I should do max d instead, with more dmg ac’s. Would mean though that US may simply just withdraw and then UK finishes it off. Just give me a minute.
-
ok. i wait
-
Think I will go max def instead.
- 2 sub
- dmg 2 I ac
- dmg 3 G ac
- 3 I des
- 1 G des
- sink 2 I ac
2 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 2 = 13 (excl sub hits)
-
ok. coming up in a few minutes
-
Now, please MARTI, give me some decent dice! :heart:
-
You had 14 on mean and hit 15. G/I has 15 on mean and hits drum roll

i will continue later
-
its a hard call to make. I am not sure what I would have done
-
If I’d know the outcome of these dice, I’d saved 4 untipped ac’s and maybe a des. Couldn’t count on it though, which means anything saved would be massacred by the brits anyway. Atleast that was my conclusion.
-
i know. Thats why we do round by round in these battles. If you save undamaged carriers and hit 11 instead of 18 it is a disaster for you. Still you have a chance to make a dent to the british. i think I would have made same selection. Hard to say and no “correct” answer
-
Doesn’t matter much, but the correct fleet in sz99 should be 1 des, 5 dmg ac.
