5 bombers?!?! Wowee!

After my last post I had a look to see if any dice rolls had come through to see if I had posted quick enough and happened to open the email showing the Russian cruiser hitting a bomber and was quite happy to see that :)

I’d say that editing is the best option for all battles that have been completed (in the future as well).

If you want to add those forgotten battles in France into the mix feel free to though. Just double check you’re not accidentally using the same plane for 2 battles though (due to editing in the already resolved battles).

If you haven’t started attacking then add them in. It wouldn’t have changed my scramble decision.

No scramble

That relatively small battle went for an epic 6 rounds. The dice just kept rolling high.

@Thurhame:

It might have been a mistake to scramble those fighters. I was betting on the 30% chance of victory, but it didn’t come through.

I’m not sure which would be better. By scrambling, even though you lost 3 fighters, you managed to damage the British fleet to a level where it can be managed. If you hadn’t scrambled then the size of the British fleet would have been a larger concern for you to worry about. Personally I was hoping you didn’t scramble.

Scramble to SZ97?

Made a quick edit above after reading the notes and realising I misclicked something in the non combat move. I wanted 2 infantry on that transport to Sumatra. (If you object then feel free to edit it back to how it was during Italy’s turn)
