I accidentally brought my Transport with the fleet to Java, so had to edit it to fix for my NCM.

I need OOL for SZ41. UK gets 3 hits to start off, which makes up for getting diced in Iraq. I would have hoped for 1 at a minimum and been thrilled with 2.
Getting ‘diced’ in a smalll land battle does not equal out getting stupid lucky in a NAVAL battle. How about how I hit nothing in all my other defenses…
2 hits on bb and cruiser
and by all rights you will be dead on defense, right?
Check that
bb hit, cruiser and tac
I have another mistake for the US I need to fix, the Carrier air in SZ42 was supposed to land in Java.
and by all rights you will be dead on defense, right?
Not your day…
I need to place 1 more hit.
You win I guess. 4 hits for 4 - yeah - well - great to have dice in a battle that determines the outcome of a game I guess.
It’s hardly game-ending, it just puts the follow-up ANZAC attack at 50% + odds. Then I have to deal with a possible wipe-out of the US fleet off Java.
I am not so sure about the air landing in Java. That is a big difference, is it not? Probably affects my OOL. It is a game changer. Instead of now taking out my fleet at the cost of ALL your planes + the ANZAC ones, you now get to roll over it for next to nothing.
This is the kind of crap that makes playing A&A a no-win situation. If I lose because someone beats me because they played well - so be it - it happens all the time. Happened last game you won.
But to lose to dice - I have lost 6 games - 5 of them due to a single stroke of stupid luck in ONE battle. This game included…
Well, let me know what you want to do, just so it’s clear.
This is notice that I will be off this game for about a week. Got some things to attend to. I will have an idea of if I can continue or not next weekend.
Take care.
MM
Okay. The game is saved awaiting the Japanese decision on another hit in SZ41.
New OOL - first three hits - carrier, carrier, bb
Last hit - cruiser
Just finish up the round…
New OOL - first three hits - carrier, carrier, bb
Last hit - cruiser
I’m more than happy to leave the game as-is if that’s your preference. Since I rolled dice before catching my mistake I can’t complain if you want to hold me to the move.
Just apply the 3 hits on the bb, carrier, carrier and the 4th on the cruiser. Planes will land on the island.

Eggman,
I apologize for my childish reaction to last round. Not very becoming for a man with 4 kids. I sincerely am sorry to you - no need for you to put up with that sort of thing.
Peace
MM
No worries, I know it’s frustrating when the dice are holding your strategy hostage.
I assume if you’re here online, that these children are all too young to play the analog version of the game. It sounds like you have just the right amount for a full set of players!
