Do you want to continue with max defense (i.e. sinking 10 subs, 9 dd, the 5 damaged carriers, and 1 cruiser)?

I have to ask because retreat could be a possibility.

[souL]

Yes. And fine rolling.

[wheatbeer]

Yeah, that last roll was a whopping 7 hits over average.

My wife just got home, so editing the map and completing Japan’s NCM will have to wait until tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

@wheatbeer:

I will be out of town this Friday through Sunday and I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to post during that time.

[souL]

Think I’m just going to resign this one, anyway.  If that’s ok with you.  I could play it out probably another 5-8 turns, but I don’t see any reason.  GG.
