Wittmann (Allies) + Rus bmb vs Gargantua (Axis) G40

[Witt]

Happy that I only have 41 this turn? I attacked viciously with the evil intent of spreading Communism, forgetting the two attacked territories were already turned by us years ago! Ouch! Would have been better to hold back.
Move your two Fighters if you would prefer them in Baltic rather than Finland.

Re the naval battle: when I only got one hit on R1, I thought I was a gonner. Never say I lie down for it!
On the Far Eastern Front thought it was better to pull back too. Hope that does not upset you too much.

[Witt]

Forget what I said about the Fighters: they could not go anywhere else.

[Gargantua]

Well there was a very interesting Kunundrum on that turn…

I built a naval base for Java, and moved my entire fleet there.  It was a sure thing.

However my round 1 attack scored only 2 hits…  with the knowledge that “of course” I was going to win, and lots of -tips- available, the logical casualty choice was for ANZAC to tip the carrier and take the destroyer.  And this selection must be decided before the defender rolls.

Of course… as soon as I made the selection, ANZAC scored 4 hits.  Only because there was a tilted carrier, I then selected all -tips- instead of planes, and retreated. Leaving the 2 ANZAC fighters to crash land in the ocean.

I know you play an honest game, and I believe you would agree with this outcome occuring as it may.  However… as an honest player, be sure to tell me if you have some huge problem with what has occured, and I’ll have to return to the Japanese Casualty selection phase, and determine if I’ll be pressing the attack, taking the dst/1acc as a causalty or what have you.

I’m pretty sure in a face to face scenario, we’d be exactly where we’re at.

[Witt]

Am on the sofa. I go with your choices.
You earnt loads this turn and Russia did not.
I think you have me.
Cairo and Java may have made it beyond me.
Talk in the morning. Goodnight.

[Witt]

Have reread. I  would keep the damaged Carrier and one Ft.
You have to stay and fight in Java, or I have a Carrier, damaged, alive. Last Fighter crashes.
Why would you not retreat at this point?

Fight and take another hit. You have lost nothing, despite 4 hits.

[Witt]

Sorry for being a thicko.
I see my Carrier and TT are alive. That is great.
Forget my last.

Enjoy your day.
