In case you missed it in the rules, there has to be a surface warship for a carrier scramble to occur. So transports and subs without any other ships can’t be scrambled to.

If that changes your move to Greece, I can redo Italy’s turn.

I have a lot going on!!

Fair, posting it here so everyone can see how it works!

Combat Hit Differential Summary :

EDIT: : 0.50

Savegame

So subs got 1 hit, then other units got 2 hits, so UK would have 3 hits to assign as casualties here.

I get an OOL from my opponent, put those in, then keep rolling. Perhaps he chooses to keep the destroyer since I have the 2 subs, so let’s assume that.

Bumping in case you missed my move

@FlyingBadger please use 2nd file, edited one of my NCM destroyers to move from 72 to 58, instead of to 71

Oh yeah! Was hoping for this (win or lose :)

full scramble

Kamikazes- 1 on each cruiser and one each on 4 destroyers

max defense, keep destroyer if there are subs, damage everything before taking casualties

What a game! And what a thrilling denouement. I bet MacArthur damn near chomped the end of pipe off in anticipation when he heard the orders!

@FlyingBadger ‘s US fleet overcomes the odds (and kamikazes) to win the war in the Pacific with a single decapitating stroke! Japan had a long leash most of the game but lost its windows to seize Australia and secure victory.

OOB, bid 48 Allies

@mikawagunichi cooking with the spicy memes

@FlyingBadger is certainly a worthy opponent for any of you 🤓

Also playing North Africa simultaneously

OOL will be sub, carrier, fighter, fighter, fighter, destroyer

@crockett36 Those were some rough dice for you in 37

• I skipped scramble to Morocco due to odds with bombard being 95%

• I guess i used the Southern Italy fighter for 83. It should have been one from Malta so it could land in 101. the one in Morocco should only have 1 move left and have to land on the carrier in 94

@Jacob16 Honestly I’ve done it when installing a new version of TripleA more times than I’d care to admit.

@Argothair It’s a bold move, and I love to see those. I think it was a high-risk play with the kamikaze potential. Losing Kwangtung and all the convoyed IPCs will hurt Japan for a bit, for sure, and I don’t know if there’s a way for me to capitalize on your fleet being so far out but I will certainly be trying 🤓😈

@Ghostglider Gods bleed!? Incredible! 😊🤓

Clicking through the game history…and @axis-dominion used the NH opener!

Woops. Do you want to continue using this thread? Seems easiest to me :)

Skipped intercept in W Ger, odds were 4 escorts + 2 bombers vs the 3 interceptors -

@nikola1975 said in L25 PTV Stucifer (X+12) v Nikola1975 (L):

@Stucifer I did play J1 in several games, but it is first time I see it combined with G1/US war declaration. Obviously, it makes sense

Odds on the 2 subs vs the cruiser is ~84% so I think it makes a J1 much more viable bidding the extra U-boat, costs US fleet momentum and possibly a few IPCs convoyed
