13L G40 Boldfresh vs. Axisplaya (Allies +16)

[Axisplaya]

Okay, sz92 : my 4 subs did 2 hits (2 BB damaged).

End of round 1 attack : you must choose 16 more casualties.

Map

[boldfresh]

lose german sub, tip the 11 acc and bat, lose 3 italian destroyers

come on 30 hits back!!!  :lol:

[boldfresh]

that didn’t appear to be the defensive roll i needed…

[boldfresh]

although it wasn’t terrible.  this next round will tell the story!!  come on, reel off a 10% fighter roll like i so often do in big attacks like this!

[boldfresh]

geez your subs are killing me.

[Axisplaya]

Yup, 2hits by the subs…i put them on italian ACs, i hope you’re ok with that.

Round 2 of attack : you got another 16 casualties to choose…

map

[boldfresh]

another good average roll….  i guess i’m the only one who gets HOSED on big battles like this.  :-P

[boldfresh]

only fighters and battleships remain.

[boldfresh]

hold on

[boldfresh]

kill all boats.  keep all ftrs and remaining tacs.

[boldfresh]

love that i put 2 transports into that stack instead of 3 destroyers or some ftrs.  i only calculated 16 ftrs, missed the additional 6…  :lol:

[boldfresh]

3 transports that is….  :lol:

[boldfresh]

well, i’m moving this game quickly from the win column to the lose column…  :lol:

[boldfresh]

well well, there were some late heroics there!!  maybe we still have a game on our hands.  if only i’d put 3 destroyers in 92 like i initially planned!  :|
