Well I noticed you are to fast for me and even got your turn in before I could post my edit, well I’m fine either way especially since it seems like you opted out of the dicey battles as well. But let me know if you want to post my dd blocking version if you rather go from there. Will give you some free dd’s to kill…   :roll:

[TheUnknownSoldier]

Well since you keep trucking I suppose you haven’t noticed my attempts to communicate. Anyhow I’ll leave it to you if you want to go with the current version or the “free” dd version for America alas if you decide to attack sz96 with England before noticing my messages I’d prefer if we stick with the result of that battle whatever it may be.  :-)

whoops, just saw your posts…. yeah, didn’t attack 96 although it seemed interesting… trading my planes for your ships would not provide a long term solution given you have an CV in the wings.

Also, that would have been a pretty close battle…  if the dice tipped against me it would have been bad…

No sure about the dd block?  Where was that suppose to go?

whoops, just saw your posts…. yeah, didn’t attack 96 although it seemed interesting… trading my planes for your ships would not provide a long term solution given you have an CV in the wings.

Also, that would have been a pretty close battle…  if the dice tipped against me it would have been bad…

No sure about the dd block?  Where was that suppose to go?

I guess, just go with the last map I posted as I didn’t go for any risky battles….  :-P

I happy to see that you opted out of the sz96 battle. While you only had about 21% chance to sink my hope of a strong aggression against Egypt on the average battle your ipc loss would not be that much greater than mine. But I suppose Egypt would get even harder to defend. So you want to stick with the current version or do you want some “free” dd’s to sink?
I was planning to block sz56 and sz46. Still a open paths to Carolines…

Well seems you are faster than me yet again.  :-)

ha haa… bad dice for me  :-P

I edit the map

[Karl7]

ok, here modified map

UK DD edit .tsvg

[TheUnknownSoldier]

My new version had two dd’s from sz36 in sz56 and sz46. I also moved one ss from sz42 to sz36. I suppose it is easiest if you list the battles and roll them in the forum and edit in the result? Feel free to redo the Caro battles if you think you would have opted to use that fighter to dd hunt instead if given the option…  :-)

Well you was to fast for me once again!!  :roll:
My guess is you don’t have the ss move on your map so I’ll edit it in.
Unless you think you would have used the Caro fighter for your dd hunt in that case feel free to add it to the only rolled battle and see if the result changes or if my luck sticks…  :evil:

[TheUnknownSoldier]

Perhaps just roll the dice and I edit it in since it won’t affect Italy’s turn I can start on your edited map.
