Or maybe I can?
Looks like a fairly obvious selection of
a) dmg bs (1)
b) dmg ac (1)
c) 2 des (2)
d) aussie cr (1)
e) ac (1)
f) 1 tac (1)
g) 1 fig (1)since the air can not land anywhere.
-
The alternative would be to keep an ac instead of a cr. Depends on what you expect from the defence roll. Hmm, no, I can’t make that choice for you.
-
Nasty
Tip BB is obvious. Tip 1 CV, lose 3ftr & 1DD.
You rolled a fair bit above average although I should kill your troops pretty well.

Ok, going with that then. The idea is of course that the carriers are tied up with carrying air. We’ll see how it plays out.
-
I lack 2 more causalties. There were 8 hits, you accounted for 6.
-
And remember, here both figs and tacs cost 10, not 10 and 11.
-
Oh right. Must have misread it. Tip another CV and lose another ftr.
-
It was a silly attack. Somehow thought wrong about it although your fleet is now rather sensitive. The other idea by doing this kamikaze-pseudo-PH is that J outproduces US quite substantially atm. It was costly, but clipping the USN’s wings is worth a lot of tempo.
-
I still think it was a silly attack. If you wanted to force combat, better to fly in 3 ftrs and sit in the Hawaii Sea Zone. I couldn’t ignore that and had to attack. I would have been at an advantage but less than the attack you actually did.
-
That was the move I was mostly fearing actually. Now I’ll be able to get ANZAC back in it and swing the income advantage back to the allies in the Pacific.

That was the alternative I was looking at.
You also hit well on defence.
Well, my expectation was anyhow higher than reality.
Don’t believe ANZAC will be allowed into the game just yet. ;)

I might very well be wrong, but looking at the map now, I’m rather happy that I did the attack. Where will the USN run and hide? Those 19 subs are pretty scary though.

Well that is where the USN will go. With that IJN positioning, you have slowed the return of ANZAC though.

Hold on, there were no dice as UK so I guess I should be able to add an attack.
