14L G40 Ghost vs. Bold - no tech, 1 unit per TT

[boldfresh]

18 hits round 1 in z26 - please let me know how you wish to allocate the hits and I will continue the battle.  Please do not roll your own defense dice (i had an opponent do this once).

Cheers

[Ghostglider]

Rolling own dice in opponents turn should only be allowed when playing face to face!  :-D
18 casulties in round 1:
7xAC (one hit only)
2xBB (one hit only)
7xSUB (keep one sub alive)
2xDD
Total: 18 hits
Very close to average dice - Will we be able to have one of the important battles actually going according to average dice… Please continue to ask for OOL round by round in this battle.
Go D#

[boldfresh]

little under on your defense and my round 2 attack was a little under i think…?

losses?

[Ghostglider]

12 casulties: SUB, 6 AC, 4 DD, 1 CRU
(keep 1 AC - hit)

[Ghostglider]

Remaining OOL:
ACs, CRUs, T.BMBs, FTRs, BBs, thanks (= always keep best defense)

[boldfresh]

oh my goodness….  you’re not going to believe this.  i didn’t bring the 3 ftr from WUS to the battle.

[boldfresh]

i will be taking different casualties from the last round of battle than i selected on tripleA…  :roll:

[boldfresh]

ii sure got lucky that i won that battle….  i obviously had meant to bring the 3 ftr from WUS in but i know what your answer would have been - no way right?  :wink:

[boldfresh]

if i had them in the battle, it may have gone much worse for me - we will never know!

[Ghostglider]

For an all or nothing battle, you are naturally allowed to bring all your units that legally can attack. Leaving units behind to cover the retreat is only for other games!
Feel free to reroll the battle with all units present if you like  :-P - I will use the same OOL as I did the first time.

[boldfresh]

haha, i actually enjoy your sense of humor ghost.  however, i know very well the conundrum i would be facing if you had won the battle.  at best, you would allow me to roll in each round for the missing (but obviously intended for the attack) fighters but with all other dice remaining as they were.  Obviously now that the battle has been won by me (against all odds) you would not want to allow me to roll additional dice in the battle that can only make the loss worse for you.
