[Guest]

Decided to get a little crazy need scramble orders, and I’ll ask for ool for each combat round.

[Stalingradski]

You crazy man!  :-o

Yes, scramble all three aircraft.

Also, my zero pilots jump into their wooden planess stuffed to the brim with fuel and incenidary bombs, take a last drink of sake, salute the Emperor, and go all divine wind. I’d like one kamikaze each on the following: all three carriers, both cruisers, and one destroyer.

[Guest]

And the italians?

[Guest]

Just realized I can’t hit them with my subs, lol so I scrambled all 3 for you. Round 1 hits to follow

[Guest]

Ok subs a very dissapointing 4 hits, ool thanks

[Stalingradski]

2 BB tips and 2 carrier tips.

Yes, you should have had 6 hits with 17 subs…

Btw - how did kamikazes do? I can look at Marti. I’m usually pretty unlucky with them…

[Guest]

2 carrier hits

[Guest]

ok the rest hit for 5 hits

[Stalingradski]

3 more carrier tips, both subs…

[Guest]

I assumed but wanted to check, you got me for twelve, i lost carrier bb hit destroyers and some subs,  ok round 2 subs hit for 6

[Stalingradski]

Ouch! That made up for the first round… I’ll lose three carriers, two destroyers, cruiser.

[Guest]

5 hits from the rest

[Stalingradski]

Wow… you do realize this was a 0% battle for you, with me having 12 units remaining, on average. Not counting kamikazes.

I’ll lose cruiser, 4 tac bombers.

[Guest]

yes i do, ok round 3 not so hot got 1 hit, you should kill them off this turn

[Guest]

I took a tac if you wanted something different just edit before Italy,

[Stalingradski]

How many subs do you have? And how much other stuff do you have, and what do I have left?

I have to be very careful about losing my final destroyer.

The anxiety that you hear from me is that I have no concept of how much you have left, so the battle feels dire to me…

Snake - I apologize for complaining about dice, but I was completely in the dark and it felt like a bad battle to me, not knowing what I was hitting in the other direction. It went exactly by odds, with kamis added in.
