If this is the diciest it gets, I’ll be happy :P
Three hits in 111, what do you want to keep?

Battleship and fighter, shoot, was going to tell with the scramble decision but forgot.
Now rolls some hits for me in 111 unlike you did for Bold - yeah, I heard all about that :roll: -
If this is the diciest it gets, I’ll be happy :P
That’s strange…. Your bomber strategy lives and dies by dice. You came out smelling like a rose from Rome and the subsequent Z95 :-P
Don’t talk to me about not liking dicey battles, until you lose a few big ones!! -

Swap out the french cruiser in 110 for the british if you like, I just took the default casualty.

I don’t remember blunders, but thanks, good post. I hoped you wouldn’t take the talk about dice in a bad direction. Classy
I just remember a disappointing result against the USA navy early when you lost nearly nothing.
Anyway, did I get lucky here? Let’s see……
-
Wow. I am so used to losing everything in those 2 battles, and I didn’t lose a single plane or battleship - that is fantastic luck for me. Even getting 3 hits in Yugo……
I gotta do a J18 against Ghost first :-( but you’re #2 priority until that one is over, then #1
-
Yeah, losing the French cruiser. I got it - thanks for the heads up, I appreciate that
