You missed my 2nd post, maybe,
You posted right after it

The result of 18 subs remaining and 15 Jap planes splashing is not OK.

@gamerman01 said in L25 Playoff OOB GeneralDisarray (X) V ABH (A) Bid 50:

But I stand by the conclusion that although I don’t think either of you handled this properly, especially if General D wasn’t looking at a map, there’s no way the General would take off his last destroyer if he was facing off against you across the board

I’m anticipating ABH protest to this statement, so I’ll go ahead and say now, that it’s clear you knew General D was making a very questionable decision which is why you were saying, essentially, “are you SURE”? And General D said yes, so you took the opportunity to wipe out his fleet with subs.
If I were you, I would have said “but you want to save 1 destroyer, right”? otherwise, say “I think you need to look at the map”.
No, you’re not required to be a baby-sitter but my opinion is this is just good sportsmanship.

BUT this result (18 American subs surviving and 15 Jap planes splashing) WILL NOT STAND UNLESS another veteran player rules that it should stand because technically you almost perfectly followed General D’s ill-advised but yet firm and repeated orders and technically won it fair and square.

Let me know if you want a 2nd opinion due to the fact that I’m next opponent. I think Axis-Dominion should be the decider if my views are not agreed upon by you both

I spent quite a bit of time looking at this.

If either of you doesn’t accept my answer, that’s fine because I’m next opponent. I will select a different top player to adjudicate this if my decision is not accepted.

My take is the same whether I was in this tournament or not. I think it is the opinion a common-sense objective bystander would share.

Facts and considerations I highlight:

1. ABH was very polite and patient and careful to document the process throughout.
2. General Disarray clearly gave his decision on what should be lost. Save carriers and planes until last, and let a maximum of 1 plane fall in the water if there is a retreat
3. ABH kept confirming this
4. General Disarray apparently did not look at the map
5. ABH typed out all the units that were taken off and left on the board. If you look at this carefully, you see he didn’t lose a single sub. I don’t think General D noticed.
6. ABH didn’t quite understand the OOL description and took off a plane when the damaged carrier could have been lost
7. The fact that General D chose to damage a carrier in the opening round seems to be inconsistent with saving all carriers and fighters til last

The common-sense opinion of an objective bystander is that if General D were present and playing with you face to face on a board, he’d NEVER have taken off his last destroyer when you were saving all subs

@GeneralDisarray said in L25 Playoff OOB GeneralDisarray (X) V ABH (A) Bid 50:

I cant see the file. I wish I knew what i hit on the crack back. I just want the best outcome of AC and plane and tac units left without falling into the water if you retreat

ABH obliged by typing out the results, and General D responded, apparently consenting for things to continue as they were.

@GeneralDisarray said in L25 Playoff OOB GeneralDisarray (X) V ABH (A) Bid 50:

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris keep the planes and ac till last. Just make sure there’s never a moment you can retreat and the outcome is me losing more than one plane.

I haven’t studied who got better dice. If I wasn’t in the tournament, I would strongly suggest that you agree to go to the moment when General D said “I wish I knew what I hit on the crack back”

With all love and respect for 2 awesome players in the league, both of you contributed to this problem.
When there is a casualty choice, play should stop and the other player open up the map, study the situation and make his choice. Casualty choices should be specific and exact, round by round. Obviously, players get in the habit of facilitating things by giving advance Order of Loss, or saying “save my bombers until last”, but in a mixed fleet battle, General D apparently forgot to say, or assumed it was obvious, “save 1 destroyer if you have a bunch of subs”
But in a big mixed fleet battle, just as ABH warned in advance, this is a big battle and we want to do this right. Since General D repeatedly and clearly said “save carriers and planes, I just don’t want planes splashing in the event of a retreat”, ABH be like, well, that’s crazy, but you said it 3 times.

Back to my opinion. Return to the point where ABH took off only carriers and destroyers, and zero subs, and roll from there.
I can understand if there are strong objections to that, especially if dice went crazy before or after, but if I was a non-caring observer who didn’t know the dice, that’s what I would say.

That said, if players agree, you can do it however you agree, which might for example include starting over from the beginning. Shoot if you can agree on a fair ending result, bypassing all dice, that would be acceptable as well but you probably can’t do that.

I know full well that General D kept giving the same orders that I would interpret the same way as ABH. Lose the last destroyer before any carriers. But I stand by the conclusion that although I don’t think either of you handled this properly, especially if General D wasn’t looking at a map, there’s no way the General would take off his last destroyer if he was facing off against you across the board so that’s obviously not what he meant to happen.

I think tomorrow night.

Although booper is posting USA and I’m posting UK,
I’d like you to know we’re actually playing by theater and giving each other orders for US Europe (on my part) and UK Pacific (on his part)

Anyway, I will be making the UK move (with booper’s orders on UK Pac) with possible delay for booper consult

It will be difficult to intercept all the letters we sent to the mothers of the red fleet seamen.

That was ambiguous. I meant the submarine off Spain

Oh.
It will be difficult to intercept all the letters we sent to the mothers of the red fleet seamen.

A pity. We had already named the wreck.
We will add the cruiser to our museum of miscalculations.
