G2.tsvg if its not too much trouble, when you download the file, could you click “Play by Email” to hook up to the server? In this way, the dice will be sent through MARTI and to our emails.

@crockett36 fighters cannot land on the deck of a newly purchased carrier. when you open the save file you should see this screen:

select “play by email” and you should see this screen:

then just hit the “play” button at the bottom. gmail is not necessary.

let me know if you have any issues

@crockett36 I had the Japanese attack the SZ off Alaska. Japanese scored three hits, how do you want them?

@crockett36 okay, but just a reminder - fighters that lose all carriers in the same sea zone must land on an island or island group in the same sea zone or they are considered “lost”. In other words, if you lose your carrier and the Japanese retreat instead of engaging in a second round of combat, both fighters will be destroyed. Reference: page 15, left column, top of the page.

I’ll hold off until you confirm.

@crockett36 to be clear, I’m not trying to influence your decision making - a carrier defends on 3 and a fighter defends on 4. The fighter is the better defender and to lose one makes it easer for the Japanese to clear the sea zone in round 2. It’s just that it has come up in previous games with other players who didn’t know and I hate to make a play where my opponent didn’t understand everything that could happen.

@crockett36 one last thing, I made a purchasing error. I’ve got six games going at the moment and I think I cooked my brain by the time I got to ours last night. I should have purchased just four infantry and saved the rest. Is it okay to adjust? All good if not. This won’t happen again.
