Too bad that the U.S. bomber didn’t get hit by AA from India instead of the Italian from Egypt.  Italy could have used a break.  In my other team game that just concluded, the American bomber squad in Manch was decimated by Jpn AA until it was left with 1 bomber.

[Desert_Admiral]

Look at that Combat Hit Differential!!! Horrible for ANZACS.  Went many rounds with no hits.

LOL Excuse me but Dawgoneits bombers have faced AA on about 25 occasions with only 1 shot down.  The axis are in no need of any “dice breaks”.

[Gargantua]

4 hits on 28 dice at two… ouch D.A!

[FMErwinRommel]

You came close D.A.  It was worth the risk for a chance to sink 3 tt’s.  Not using your DD’s so I couldn’t scramble my 3 planes was smart.  Because I had committed all my Phil DD’s in combat elsewhere, I was vulnerable.

Lol, I was thinking the exact same thing Garg.  Japan has gotten some rolls this game along with Dawg’s German bombers…

[Desert_Admiral]

But the Allies are still hangin on!

[FMErwinRommel]

Here’s the conclusion to my prior post about my American bombing campaign against Japan.  After having a negative TUV on bombing raids over Japan, AA losses had reduced the number of bombers to that of the potential defending ftrs.  But the odds of hits was low, ha.  I went for one last raid.  3 Amer bombers intercepted by 3 Jpn ftrs and both sides rolled snake eyes.  1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36 for each times both opponents = 1/1296?  What are the odds that both sides would have the same extraordinary die roll.  Only 1 plane on each side survived the 1 round battle where every unit had a power of 1.  Japan temporarily revived, but eventually, my allied position made it impossible for the Axis and they conceded the game.

[FMErwinRommel]

The ANZ sub battle had a 2/3 chance of success.  Jpn had a 1/3 chance with average of almost 1 unit left, which turned out to be correct.  Jpn also rolled poorly, just not as poorly, 4 out of 34.  In the real WWII, a high % of the U.S. torpedoes were duds for the first year or more.

ENOUGH TALK!  I want DICE! I want ACTION!

Every single ANZ defender hit.  I attacked Cel with a tt and planes and only inflicted 1 hit.  Both defenders hit.  So I chose to take a ftr as a hit to save a ground unit.  But the remaining defender hit again.  So I gave up and left the isle empty.  I didn’t use a 2nd tt because I didn’t want to lose 2 tt’s and I only had 1 inf left in the Phil.  But I did advance to threaten the Allied fleet and have interceptors in India.

I had the same trouble with loading and moving tt’s again in sz20 when there were multiple tt’s.  So I made a NCM in combat phase to clear out tt’s from that sz so I could make a combat move from there.  But then I couldn’t complete the NCM in NCM.  So I had to edit at the end.

I will have to start marking the dice stat box.  Average ANZ dice roll was 1.4 (median 1); average Jpn dice roll was 4.2 (median 5).
