13L G40 NT Arathorn (Axis) vs JDOW (Allies +12)

[JDOW]

So SZ44 certainly did not go well, same for all sea battles. the small land battles however went well, and I avoided a disaster in Hopei (yet you got your hit to my air as a compensation for the missed AA). So could have been better, your troops chose to focus their aiming skills on the most important battles, but all in all nothing big to complain.

p.s.: I am getting a bit paranoid about 1 DD vs 1 Sub. I had this setup now 3 or 4 times and I did not win once;)

[arathorn]

@JDOW:

You received the Chinese Convoy rolls twice as I wanted to change something and rather redid the move instead of editing (I try to avoid edits when possible)

And as Chinese Convoy rolls are a bug anyway this should not be a problem :)

No problem!

AB had 2 in damage. A roll of 3+2 = 5. 2+5 = 7, which gives max damage of 6.

NB had 0 in damage. A roll of 1+2 = 3. 0+3 = 3, which gives damage of 3.

Will edit this in.

[arathorn]

I had to reopen the map, so disregard the rolls of “aaguns”. They were rolled here first on the forum, so those dice stand. :)
