well you did it again - another precious aircraft down.  2 hits in 4 pips while i got 1 hit in 9.  still waiting for you to say you have gotten more luck than I.  :-P

[boldfresh]

microedit  :roll:

[JDOW]

Hey Bold,

you allowed me to edit a US dd into sz92. this means that the Italians would not get the NO for the clean med.
Have you been aware of that? Anything you would have done differently in hindsight?
My French and Anzac move would be influenced anyway. I just want to be sure we are on the same page.

I can run an analysis once the game is over. For sure I recently have no reasons to complain.

But I think you should also take into account that you imo dodged just dodged a serious bullet in my US turn. I had a 56% chance to deactivate the Scotland airbase which would have given me a 92% shot an sinking 3 German Carriers, German Cruiser, 3 German Transports and 2 Italian transports.
+58 average TUV which means the most likely outcome might be in the +80-90 range. Would you redo the Scotland damage roll to revive your Italian bomber? ;)

[JDOW]

And merry Christmas :-) In Germany the 24th is the main day we celebrate:)

You had a 50 pct chance in siam earlier and it succeedwd, which crippled japan.  You cant expect to succeed on both!  :-)

Yes I would have done something differently I would have attacked 92 with the italian bomber and a ftr.

[boldfresh]

If u ask for an edit please post a map.  Since my bomber went down in a different attack I say we leave itas Iis in my last post.

[boldfresh]

actually bomber couldn’t get there from BESS.  probably would have sent 2 ftrs at it.  guess we will never know.  let’s go ahead and keep your edit and take ANOTHER 5 bucks from italy, after her already disaster.  but from now on, you need to post a map with any edits.  i saw you request an edit for usa (didn’t register what it was just saw you asked for edit and said go ahead), i just assumed you went ahead and did it on your uk map.

[boldfresh]

i will go ahead and leave it as i said, but i want to edit one italian tac back to 111 rather than to nov.
