XDAP-2: Onward! Defrosted Tuna Team vs Death by Dice

[Noll]

@Canuck12:

Noll why didnt you get an OOL for that? And what in god’s name made you think That I would want to take a hit on my carrier (Which forces my planes to land) instead of taking another destroyer?

The fact that I attacked you with 1 carrier 2fighters and 6 submarines? You woulnd’t know I would miss all the rounds? If you want to reroll 110 with a different OL I’ll reroll from the battle starting from the american turn.

assign 2 submarine hits and 2fighter hits before I roll your defense rolls

you have left:

1 carrier, 1 cruiser, 1 destroyer, 1 fighter 1 tactical_bomber

[Noll]

oh I assigned 1 more hit to the Americans, it’s 1 carrier and 1ss (3 hits)

[allweneedislove]

noll you should have asked for the ools originally, but with these better dice, canuck is going to wish he left it alone.

@allweneedislove:

The most wise thing to do was to assign the first hit on a carrier because his fleet was doomed anyway, but as I had bad luck on the dice side he tried to force “you didn’t ask OOL thing”. So here’s the the rolls with the OOL.

[ghr2]

actually its still 5 subs,  carrier is 2 hit unless your keeping it with damage.

@Noll:

-2 DD to Germany

Defender rolls 2@1 4@2 2@3 1@4

Rolls: 2@1 4@2 2@3 1@4; Total Hits: 32@1: (5, 4)4@2: (6, 4, 1, 3)2@3: (3, 3)1@4: (6)

Why the dds instead of the subs?

[Noll]

You’re right! Thankfully I didn’t roll germans def roll round 2.

I still need order of loss tho’

@Noll:

Basically, Noll still got 4 hits unless he just chooses to damage his carrier instead of destroying it.

[Noll]

I destroy it of course. It was round1 damage.

[Canuck12]

Sorry Noll. You dint just get to Redo USA. Maybe I will Redo Germany…

The Americans got a certain number of hits and you assigned them without asking in a way that massively disadvantaged me against the obvious British second strike.

Redo the British turn and next time remember to ask for an OOL.

I’m fine with ghr2’s assertion that dice shouldn’t change. Though it will likely affect the normandy landing either way.

[Noll]

Sorry Canuck, if you want a different OOL, there must be a reroll. You can check any game on this website that had a similar situation, there will be no different rules just for you. Dice can’t be the same with a different OOL/roll.

[Noll]

Also I may add, that convenientely, you’re asking for a re-roll only on the british side. How far will you go to try to win this game?

[ghr2]

the OOL changes how the battle rolls, if your goign to change the OOL after the battle was resolved, then you have to redo the entire battle, or just everything from the first defensive roll.

[ghr2]

@ghr2:

cause technically, the defender needs to have the casualties selected before he sees his/her dice

[Noll]

I bet we will need 12 more days to go through half of round7 now.

[rgp44]

If you want an opinion from the peanut gallery, i think Germany trades the hit on the CV for a DD and the planes go back on the carrier, US gets to retreat 1 sub out of that combat to account for extra rolls by dead DD.
