UK will be later, probably tonight

[gamerman01]

OK, now that I have my trusty calculator and spreadsheet and am taking a 2nd look, I need to change some USA noncoms…

It’s kind of a mess in TripleA, so I will list them here:

1. 2 loaded transports to 108 instead of 91 and Morocco
       I had to put the 2 infantry and mech on Eire because the editor won’t let you put land units in sea (Veqryn is fixing this for the next update - yay)
2. 1 jets and 2 heavies to Finland instead of Normandy
3. 2 jets to Finland instead of 91
4. Build a jet to 110 instead of Normandy
5. Swap placement of DD and Mech between EUS and Normandy

[allweneedislove]

no problem, edit away.

[gamerman01]

I have played so few games past 4 rounds, I get kind of lost at this point

[gamerman01]

Here comes UK

[gamerman01]

Z81 attack

Need submerge decisions for German and Italian subs - thanks
I will be doing one round at a time, and give you a chance to submerge each round

TripleA does not do sub battles properly, so I will roll it on the forum and then edit as necessary.

See attached map

[gamerman01]

Actually, I can do it in TripleA

Since I don’t have a destroyer, TripleA will do it correctly.  It’s when you have a destroyer present and it still rolls the subs first and makes you choose casualties, that it’s wrong.

Still, I will be checking with you round by round as necessary

I’d have to double-check, but I think even though you still have to choose sub losses first even when you have a destroyer, you still get to roll for the casualties you pick.

[allweneedislove]

subs fight for the first round

[gamerman01]

Yes, you do, but that still sucks because you don’t know what your attack roll is yet, and the defender could know how many hits they’ve scored when they choose.  Neither of these should be the case.

[gamerman01]

I hit 2/3 with fighters

Which 2 surface ships do you lose?

[gamerman01]

Both subs missed

The way things have been going lately, I’m sure you’re not surprised

[gamerman01]

The cruiser has yet to roll

[allweneedislove]

destroyer, cruiser

[gamerman01]

My cruiser misses
You got 2/3 hits
I lost 2 fighters

It’s undamaged carrier, cruiser, and fighter vs. 2 subs and cruiser

Submerge German sub?
Submerge Italian sub?
