First Round:

US SS scored nine hits. -> all CV’s and one BB are tipped.

US scored 17 Hits. Ool please.
Thank you.

[Omega1759]

Lose subs, then destroyers but leave at least one.

That looked like really good rolling for the Americans.

[Omega1759]

How many subs did I have? Like 16 or 17 I think?

[aequitas-et-veritas]

You have (had :-D) 17 SS and 16 will be sunk plus your last BB dent.
Proceed?

[Omega1759]

There are 16 planes but only 7 carriers to land on. I don’t have map in front of me but please confirm all your planes can land.

There is one CV at the coast of SF in sz 10.

We Save!! :-D

[Omega1759]

7 hits with the subs. Hard to tell if the rest of the fleet hit well or not.

[Omega1759]

Lose a sub for that single hit.

OK I guess that is it,
That game went off in my face too.

I concede.

Wow, big deal. GG. This was gutsy move.

I think your play has good potential and with small tweaks you’ll get up in the rankings to tier 1 and beyond. The key with the allies is patience and forcing small battles with decent odds. Waiting for large battles to be in your favor is usually not good for the allies.
