14L G40 bonusbent (Allies+8) - Amon-Sul (Axis)

[bonusbent]

I am not that much into surface warships. I will be attacking with 7 subs and 3 bombers  :wink:

[bonusbent]

The battle will be 7 subs and 3 bombers. I dont know how to roll the dice here on the forum. Can you please send me a link or explain it to me.

[bonusbent]

I can roll the dice on the forum tonight, but I have to go for now.

[bonusbent]

@bonusbent:

I can roll the dice on the forum tonight, but I have to go for now.

Well. I dont know if I actually can, but I will make a test. If I am not mistaken I should type "Rolling 2d6:
(2, 6)  " for your 2 subs?

Testing…

Rolling 2d6:
(2, 6)

[bonusbent]

Ok. Now that I know how to roll the dice over forum I will try to play my turn later today. I will probably need your OOL, but I suppose you would go for dmg AC, subs, DDs, tac, fighters, AC?

Combat Move - Americans
            2 submarines moved from 19 Sea Zone to 6 Sea Zone
            1 bomber moved from Buryatia to 6 Sea Zone
            1 submarine moved from 8 Sea Zone to 6 Sea Zone
            2 submarines moved from 26 Sea Zone to 6 Sea Zone

                  Chinese take Kiangsi from Japanese
            1 destroyer and 1 submarine moved from 91 Sea Zone to 109 Sea Zone

[bonusbent]

Ok. So here we go. Will do it round by round.

You got two subs @ 1. I presume you do not want to submerge.

Rolling 2d6:
(6, 6)

[bonusbent]

No hits for your subs.

I will now roll for my 7 subs @2.

Rolling 7d6:
(1, 2, 3, 3, 5, 5, 5)

[bonusbent]

My subs inflicted two hits. I presume you want assign the damage to the Ac and lose 1 sub.

I will roll for my 3 bombers @ 4.

Your defense will then be 3 DDs and 1 AC @ 2, 1 tac @ 3 and 2 fighers @4

3 bombers:
Rolling 3d6:
(1, 2, 4)

3 DDs and 1 Ac:
Rolling 4d6:
(4, 5, 6, 6)

1 tac:
Rolling 1d6:
(6)

2 fighters:
Rolling 2d6:
(4, 6)

[bonusbent]

Wow. Not a good round for you. The US bombers inflicted 3 hits. I will remove 1 Japanese sub and 2 DDs.

You inflicted 1 hit. I will remove 1 US sub.

[bonusbent]

So the remaining forces are:

6 US subs rolling @2

3 US bombers rolling @4

1 Jap DD and 1 Jap AC rolling @2

1 Jap tac rolling @ 3

2 Jap figters rolling @ 4

I will roll for the subs first as they can only hit your DD and AC.

Rolling 6d6:
(1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 6)

[bonusbent]

So. The US subs inflicted 3 hits. However, they can only hit your ships so you lose the AC and the DD.

Will now roll for the remaining forces:

3 US bombers @4
Rolling 3d6:
(3, 4, 5)

You got 1 DD and 1 AC @2
Rolling 2d6:
(4, 5)

1 tac @ 3
Rolling 1d6:
(1)

2 fighters @ 4
Rolling 2d6:
(1, 6)

[bonusbent]

So, let me see…

The bombers inflicted 2 hits. I will remove 1 tac and 1 fighter

You scored 2 hits. I will remove 2 US subs.

The remaining forces are 4 US subs, 3 US bombers and 1 Japanese fighter

I will roll for the 3 US bombers and the Japanese fighter.

US bombers:
Rolling 3d6:
(2, 4, 5)

Japanese fighter
Rolling 1d6:
(3)

[bonusbent]

Your fighter goes down and I lose 1 US bomber.

Remaining forces in SZ 6 are 4 US subs and 2 US bombers.

Please let me know if I am mistaken. Then we will of course have to edit. I am not sure how I could have posted this in a different way. I just hope it makes sense for you.

[bonusbent]

I will go through the battle in TripleA now, but ignore any dice rolls and then edit the result from the forum.

Got to say I feel gutted for you. You lost some crucial battles in this round. I had less than 50 % chance of winning Gibraltar and the battle in SZ 6  :|

Your sub in SZ 109 compensated a bit for your losses, but nothing compared to what I won.
