@ktylu:

Yeah, sounds good to me. I posted your victory for ya.

On a side note: Just answer me this, when do you attack? in other words, at what percentage?

In our game, i lost 7 battles when i was above 90% to win according to calculator. Is that not high enough?

I don’t have a hard and fast rule. Depends on the prize for winning vs losses. If its good enough I can attack at 30% or even less. TBH, I pay more attention to the TUV swing than the win % and even that is misleading when damaged CVs come into it, or defending bombers etc.

One more comment I’ll make on this one. I have learnt to think about what will happen if the attack goes against me - if I retreat will my units be able to be picked off and thus I’ll need to continue anyway or am I likely to be able to hold the position I’ve retreated to?

If I make a good attack which goes bad I don’t get too upset about it. It’s part of the game and you have to deal with it.

Intercept in India? 3 bombers on 2 against you.

I guess you could just play that game online and not bother with play by forum.

Bid = sub sz98, art Kweichow, Sudan and Karelia.

Slightly changing up.

Can I make some comment on the scoring system? I don’t think you should ever lose PPG for a win. If your PPG is above any of your winning game points, they should be excluded and then recalc’ed, until no more are excluded.

So same sides?

Happy to have a rematch.
