L26 PTV Booper (X+12) vs Stucifer (L)

  • 25 24 23

    Didn’t realize the battle calculator snip was before the scramble. Still a <2% outcome, but not 0.2%.

    Huge disaster for the UK though, 4 fighters, 2 destroyers and a cruiser, and still didn’t sink the Littorio


  • @Stucifer

    Wow, I’m sorry, really frustrating to get diced like that. I was fortunate enough the first round against the US in SZ93, didn’t dream it would happen again. Was just hoping to take some ships to soften it up for a German Luftwaffe counterstrike.

    I had never planned to hold SZ93, but a fortuitous opportunity to retreat from killing the DD in 107 started the entire sequence when UK whiffed. I thought it was a toss-up to hold against the US, which is why I stranded the Italian transports in 100. I had originally planned to cover them with the Italian CV, but then I needed that extra scramble in 93, so it they had to be sacrificed.

    On the positive side, you sunk a ton of Axis transports!

  • 25 24 23

    Edge outcomes happen, I don’t think I’d enjoy playing this game on low luck although sometimes I wish for it haha

    The transports help a lot, if it weren’t for that I’d be around -125, as it is I’m at -100 for sz 93 + 94 I think. However one of the strengths of the Allies is they tend to be less brittle, with the US taking most of that negative TUV swing I should be ok but the UK is smarting. I was planning on the german transport being eliminated to deny Norway & the NO for another round


  • @Stucifer

    Yes, if I could have picked any transport to survive, it would have been that one - lol.

    You’re leaving me with a prickly situation in the Pacific though. Nice combos with US/UK.
