[MrRoboto]

I’ll attack SZ6 with 5 anzac subs. will you submerge your subs?

[Jennifer]

USA cleared a destroyer I assume?

[MrRoboto]

Well I couldn’t attack SZ6 otherwise :-)

[Jennifer]

Assuming my map is correct and there are no blockers between the fleet in the Philippines and SZ 6 (currently) then the submarines stay surfaced for 1 round.  Call me after the first round I want to see what happens. (Let me know the hit tally for first round, please.)

[MrRoboto]

It’s still your turn with Italy…

[Jennifer]

oh, thought you were jumping ahead and doing ANZAC to get it out of the way so I could jump through Italy (no turn really) then Germany/Japan.

[Jennifer]

Also, why don’t I have round 1 dice in Karelia?

You should only have survived with 2 bombers - maybe, and even then, it was close to 50/50.

[MrRoboto]

Hm, I checked my Marti E-Mails. This seems kinda buggy.

You are right - the email reads “Round 2”, without any email containing a first round.
But: In this “Round 2”, both sides still have all units. And the dice results are the ones shown in TripleA as well.

If you look closely in the TripleA history of that combat, in the very first round of combat, it reads “round 2” there as well…

No idea why. But it seems like just a bug and nothing to worry about.

Why would you think I only survive with 2 bombers?
Battle Calculator gives win% 96% with 7 units left on average.

Hey, sorry for jumping in, but I guess starting with round 2 is normal. Round 1 is afaik reserved for Sub surprise attacks or so or maybe AA fire. So normal land battles start with round 2 in tripleA.

Cheers,
Tobias

[MrRoboto]

Thanks for the help :-)

[Jennifer]

Okay, was kinda wondering, with the odds as low as they were, I actually decided to look at the dice. lol.

Anyway, under the weather past few days, should be able to get a post up by Sunday night.
