Yeah instead of the more likely taken without loss and getting the NO and denying the Italian NO I lost 15 to kill 3.  That's a huge early game swing.

&*^$

  was hoping that risky attempt at AUS should have made you pay dearly - had you not killed the bomber, your fleet would have REALLY been in jeopardy (but the way that went I doubt it...).  In the end it turned out to be more of a positive.

fighter pulls off

ac from Z10 to Z12
infantry, artillery from GBR to ALG

38 + 10 NO = 48

Time to head back to the drawing board now.   

[LuckyLindy]

That was my attempt at an early game kill shot.  I should have known better than to try it with the way my dice have been lately.

[souL]

I was really just hoping for average in Aus... got it.  After that I am comfortable with whatever happens to that fleet.
