TheUnknownSoldier

That should be two versus cruisers and four against destroyers, sadly I don’t have eight kamikaze attacks to spare. :roll:

TheUnknownSoldier

I though I was in a position to crush your fleet if you advanced even without kamikaze hits, but perhaps I pushed the wrong numbers into the battle calc, anyway lets improve the odds if we can: two kami vs each cruiser and four against destroyers.

TheUnknownSoldier

Perhaps I should have written one way instead of best way.

TheUnknownSoldier

As I read the PU count I realised I had forgot my walk-in into Alex. Since this move become less beneficial if I had lost in Algeria and while the odds was heavily in my favour I could still have lost. Can certainly testify to have lost way more sure-fire battles in A&A. In the end I’m happy either way but I suppose the best way to find out where the line is drawn is to bump up against it… :roll:
