US is attacking Japan fleet off the Philippines -
I don’t know if I have to, but probably need to roll on forum to make sure Triple A doesn’t cause any confusion or issues.

8 SS, 2 DD, 4 CV, 1 BB, 11 FTR, 1 TAC, 3 BMB

OK, I screwed up by using 8 a second time, and apparently I can’t put more than one in a line.
I will now attempt to roll the destroyers, then the fighters, then the tac, bombers, and battleship
It would also seem that I should be using a less than sign, so I guess what I have in my notes is wrong.

The sub roll was 8 dice and had 3 hits on rolls of 1 or 2, so it seems that should stand as rolled (there were 3 1’s)

2 destroyers
[dice 2d6<3]
11 fighters
[dice 11d6<4]
Tac, 3 bombers, battleship

OK, I think I got it right now, and it looks like the luck was reasonably average, though a bit in my favor.

Anyway, that’s 13 hits, expected was 12.2 I believe.

Please allocate 13 hits
and sorry about the little mis-roll there - let me know if you don’t think I handled things correctly please

[gamerman01]

Oh, I need to attach the file

Japan fleet in trouble. The save is from start of battle. Do you have the one in battle?

[gamerman01]

No, I’m not sure what you mean - unless you were expecting to see dice in TripleA. I rolled them here because I don’t like how TripleA does some things in fleet battles, like requiring casualty choices after subs only.

I made a mistake on the opening roll, but if you count, there were 3 hits for the subs on 2 or less
Then I did it right and the rest had 10 hits, so 13 total.

I didn’t edit the map for the hits because I don’t know your choice, though I would think it’s damage 9 carriers and 2 battleships, and lose 2 subs - still didn’t want to assume, sorry I’m probably being too careful and probably few players roll whole fleet battles on the forum. I didn’t want the rolls to be spliced like they were when I did the UK/Italy fleet battle in round 1.

[gamerman01]

I will edit the map after you choose and then I choose, so it’s easier for you to see the situation after attacker round 2, but right now the map shows the current situation since nothing has been chosen.

I could roll it in Triple A from here on out if you want, I don’t want to make you uncomfortable

[aagamerz13]

Ok, I understand. Casualties in a second…

[aagamerz13]

11 hits on the 2 hit items, and then lose 2 subs. The 3 sub hits will go on the 2 hit items so that the 2 subs can return fire. So, first round only two subs are sunk with 11 2 hit items at 1 hit for second round

[gamerman01]

Perfect, I’m glad you understand - rolling defense and 2nd round attack then
