[Degrasse]

Have at it.

I can sympathize with Noll, the 42 scenario is rough for playing the Axis.

[captainwalker]

Yeah…I think the axis should get a bid in this game!

[Witt]

Thank you for accepting to play the eventual losers of WW2, Capitano Walker. It is only some fun and more historical, I believe. Japan starts with fewer planes than 40 too, albeit owning everything within its horizon.
I am happy to swap sides. (I am Italian, after all!)

@captain:

I’m good with Germany/Italy… I just need to figure out how to keep pressure on Russia while defending Western Europe.

I knew you were the man for the job. From now on I shall refer to you as “Hitler’s Fireman”. My man Model. I love a hard fought battle, back to the wall. Model shot himself in the Ruhr Pocket after losing AG B ,  rather than be captured by the Americans.

[Degrasse]

Scramble orders for up to three fighters from Hawaii?

Order of loss for the fleet?

1.  free hits on BBs and CVs
2.  SS
3.  All but one DD plus the CVs.  Wait on killing the last DD until after all the horde of Japanese subs are sunk
4.  CAs and tac bombers  (last DD if not yet sunk)
5.  fighters then BB

[Witt]

Jus do it, Degrasse. I thought I saw Aequitas could not survive. Do what you think fair.

[Degrasse]

Not scrambling is a 100% loss plus 99 IPCs down, scrambling is only a 97% loss but also the net IPC loss is only 85.  So scrambling three fighters is better.
